StenUNet: Automatic Stenosis Detection from X-ray Coronary Angiography [PDF]
Coronary angiography continues to serve as the primary method for diagnosing coronary artery disease (CAD), which is the leading global cause of mortality. The severity of CAD is quantified by the location, degree of narrowing (stenosis), and number of arteries involved.

SSASS: Semi-Supervised Approach for Stenosis Segmentation [PDF]
Coronary artery stenosis is a critical health risk, and its precise identification in Coronary Angiography (CAG) can significantly aid medical practitioners in accurately evaluating the severity of a patient's condition. The complexity of coronary artery structures combined with the inherent noise in X-ray images poses a considerable challenge to this ...

Prevalence of Infantile Hypertrophic Pyloric Stenosis and relation to breast feeding trends in the Maltese Islands between 1995 and 2007 [PDF]
Introduction: Several studies have indicated that breastfeeding may protect against the development of infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis (IHPS). This study investigated trends in IHPS over the period 1995-2007 in Malta and analysed the relationship

Identification of Genetic Variants in Status Epilepticus Associated With Fever
The detection rate of genetic variants was lower in patients with status epilepticus associated with fever (SEF) (4/15; 26.7%) than in those with DEE (17/27 63.0%). DEE revealed a wide variety of causative genes (16 different genes), whereas in SEF cases, only SCN1A variants were detected. SEF and DEE may have different onset mechanisms.

More Infantile Hypertrophic Pyloric Stenosis? [PDF]
In 1978 there was a disproportionate increase in the number of cases of Infantile Hypertrophic Pyloric Stenosis (IHPS) admitted to the Cambridge Military Hospital Aldershot. This increase has not been sustained in subsequent years, although the mean incidence for the period 1979/82 was slightly higher than the preceding years 1975/77.

A Recurrent CNN for Automatic Detection and Classification of Coronary Artery Plaque and Stenosis in Coronary CT Angiography [PDF]
Various types of atherosclerotic plaque and varying grades of stenosis could lead to different management of patients with coronary artery disease. Therefore, it is crucial to detect and classify the type of coronary artery plaque, as well as to detect and determine the degree of coronary artery stenosis.

Neonatal azithromycin administration to prevent infant mortality: study protocol for a randomised controlled trial. [PDF]
IntroductionBiannual mass azithromycin distribution to children aged 1-59 months has been shown to reduce all-cause mortality. Children under 28 days of age were not treated in studies evaluating mass azithromycin distribution for child mortality due to ...
