A feature agnostic approach for glaucoma detection in OCT volumes [PDF]

, 2018
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) based measurements of retinal layer thickness, such as the retinal nerve fibre layer (RNFL) and the ganglion cell with inner plexiform layer (GCIPL) are commonly used for the diagnosis and monitoring of glaucoma. Previously, machine learning techniques have utilized segmentation-based imaging features such as the ...

Deciphering Auditory Hyperexcitability in Otogl Mutant Mice Unravels an Auditory Neuropathy Mechanism

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
By investigating auditory hyperexcitability in a mouse model for hereditary deafness, this study identified a subpopulation of afferent neurons of the auditory nerve marked by Otogl expression. Despite their apparently normal hearing, Otogl+/− mice display poor activation of afferent neurons processing loud sounds and an elevation of the middle the ear

MTSS2‐Related Disorder: Refining the Phenotype in Four New Cases and Literature Review

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT MTSS2 encodes a protein highly expressed in the central nervous system, with a crucial role in neurodevelopment. The de novo recurrent variant c.2011C>T (p.Arg671Trp) was first identified in 2022 as cause of Intellectual Developmental Disorder with ocular anomalies and distinctive facial features (OMIM#620086).

Geometric Deep Learning to Identify the Critical 3D Structural Features of the Optic Nerve Head for Glaucoma Diagnosis [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
Purpose: The optic nerve head (ONH) undergoes complex and deep 3D morphological changes during the development and progression of glaucoma. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is the current gold standard to visualize and quantify these changes, however the resulting 3D deep-tissue information has not yet been fully exploited for the diagnosis and ...

Direct and indirect effects of different dentifrices on the initial bacterial colonization of enamel in situ overnight

International Journal of Dental Hygiene, Volume 21, Issue 1, Page 178-187, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the direct and indirect influence of fluoridated toothpastes and fluoride‐free toothpaste with hydroxyapatite (HAP) as active ingredient on initial bacterial colonization on enamel in situ. Methods For this clinical‐experimental pilot study, eight subjects were instructed to brush their teeth ...

AI-based Clinical Assessment of Optic Nerve Head Robustness Superseding Biomechanical Testing [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
$\mathbf{Purpose}$: To use artificial intelligence (AI) to: (1) exploit biomechanical knowledge of the optic nerve head (ONH) from a relatively large population; (2) assess ONH robustness from a single optical coherence tomography (OCT) scan of the ONH; (3) identify what critical three-dimensional (3D) structural features make a given ONH robust ...

3‐Year Outcomes of Temperature‐Controlled Radiofrequency Ablation of the Posterior Nasal Nerve in Patients With Chronic Rhinitis

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Temperature‐controlled radiofrequency (TCRF) ablation of the posterior nasal nerve has been shown to improve chronic rhinitis (CR) symptoms and quality of life (QoL). This study assesses the durability of TCRF's effectiveness and safety 3 years post‐procedure in patients with perennial allergic CR and nonallergic CR.

The correlation between Rood and Shehab’s radiographic features and the incidence of inferior alveolar nerve paraesthesia following odontectomy of lower third molars

Dental Journal, 2016
Background: Odontectomy of lower third molar has a potential risk for inferior alveolar nerve impairment. Paresthesia of inferior alveolar nerve has often been associated with close relationship between the apex of lower third molar and mandibular canal.

In vivo endoscopic autofluorescence microspectro-imaging of bronchi and alveoli [PDF]

Dans Endoscopic Microscopy III, (Guillermo J. Tearney and Thomas D. Wang - Editors) - In vivo endoscopic autofluorescence microspectro-imaging of bronchi and alveoli, San Jose : \'Etats-Unis d'Am\'erique (2008), 2008
Fibered confocal fluorescence microscopy (FCFM) is a new technique that can be used during a bronchoscopy to analyze the nature of the human bronchial and alveolar mucosa fluorescence microstructure. An endoscopic fibered confocal fluorescence microscopy system with spectroscopic analysis capability was developed allowing real-time, simultaneous images
