Fully Convolutional Networks for Automated Segmentation of Abdominal Adipose Tissue Depots in Multicenter Water-Fat MRI

, 2018
Purpose: An approach for the automated segmentation of visceral adipose tissue (VAT) and subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) in multicenter water-fat MRI scans of the abdomen was investigated, using two different neural network architectures.

Ultrasonographic evaluation of ulnar innervated muscles in ulnar neuropathy at the elbow

PM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Quantitative muscle ultrasound (qMUS) provides morphological measurements that can support clinical observation of muscle atrophy and weakness. As the use of qMUS continues to expand, and its potential for broader implementation in neuromuscular evaluation grows, there is a clear need for further validation, particularly in ...

Capture of isoflurane from anaesthetised dogs and cats following methadone, medetomidine and ketamine administration

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Volatile anaesthetic agents contribute to climate change, and reducing this impact is a commendable ambition. We evaluated the efficiency of a veterinary capture device for isoflurane (VET‐can/VET‐dock, SageTech Veterinary) in anaesthetised cats and dogs.

Effect of soft tissue sample preparation techniques for scanning small‐angle X‐ray scattering experiments

Journal of Synchrotron Radiation, EarlyView.
The effect of tissue‐processing techniques, including fixation and embedding, on the structural information obtained from scanning small‐angle X‐ray scattering of muscle and connective tissue has been studied. This provides a framework for sSAXS users working with soft tissues to make an informed choice on the sample preservation method, tailored to ...

Anticoagulant Rodenticides Contribute to a Decline in an Urban Carnivore

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Anticoagulant rodenticides (ARs) have been shown to negatively affect carnivores globally and are closely tied to human activity and development. We examined drivers of annual survival in bobcats persisting on a residentially developed barrier island over 16 years.

Hypersensitivity to Excipients in Drugs: An EAACI Position Paper

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drugs contain active pharmaceutical ingredients and excipients, compounds which enhance the pharmacokinetics, stability and palatability of the pharmaceutical formulation. While most drug hypersensitivity reactions (DHR) are caused by active ingredients, excipients may also be involved.

Muscle Strength and Power Changes With Gender‐Affirming Hormone Therapy

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Androgen receptors are highly expressed in upper body muscles, but changes in maximal muscle strength and power in major upper body muscles have not been investigated during gender‐affirming hormone therapy (GAHT). Objective To assess prospective changes in maximal muscle strength and muscle power from before and after 1 year of ...

Meta-assembly of genomic associations to identify cattle fat depot candidate genes and pleiotropic effects

BMC Genomics
Background Fat traits in cattle are considered important due to their contribution to beef eating quality and carcass economic value. Discovering the genes controlling fat traits in cattle will enable better selection of these traits, but identifying ...
