The Effect of 12 Weeks of Training in Water, on Land and Combined Environment on Bone Mineral Density in Premenopausal Women

Physical Treatments, 2016
Purpose: Given that physical activity is the most important environmental moderating factor, it has been known as an effective, available, low-cost and non-pharmacological approach to increase or maintain bone density at different ages.

Prehabilitation of Patients With Oesophageal Malignancy Undergoing Peri‐Operative Treatment (Pre‐EMPT): Outcomes From a Prospective Controlled Trial

Journal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The Pre‐EMPT study aimed to determine if structured exercise could reduce length of stay, post‐operative complications and improve fitness and health‐related quality of life (HQRL) in patients undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) and oesophagectomy.

Automatic bone marrow segmentation for precise [177Lu]Lu‐PSMA‐617 dosimetry

Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Bone marrow (BM) is the dominant dose‐limiting organ in [177Lu]Lu‐PSMA‐617 therapy for patients with metastasized castration resistant prostate cancer, where BM dosimetry is challenging due to segmentation. Purpose We aim to develop an automatic image‐based segmentation method on peri‐therapeutic sequential [177Lu]Lu‐PSMA‐617 images

Reconstruction of 3D lumbar spine models from incomplete segmentations using landmark detection [PDF]

arXiv
Patient-specific 3D spine models serve as a foundation for spinal treatment and surgery planning as well as analysis of loading conditions in biomechanical and biomedical research. Despite advancements in imaging technologies, the reconstruction of complete 3D spine models often faces challenges due to limitations in imaging modalities such as planar X-

The TBXT rs2305089 SNP links the benign notochordal cell tumour and chordoma

The Journal of Pathology, EarlyView.
Abstract The aim of this research was to investigate the pathogenesis of the bone cancer chordoma and the role of the germline rs2305089 SNP in TBXT. Using medical imaging and genotyping studies, we observed that benign notochordal cell tumours (BNCTs) were associated with chordomas and with the variant rs2305089 A‐allele with enrichment of the AA ...

The Prognostic Significance of Handgrip Strength in Cirrhosis: Simplicity Is the Ultimate Sophistication

Portal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, EarlyView.
The advantages to measure handgrip strength (HGS) are simple, convenient, noninvasive, cost‐effective, and easy to be widely carried out during daily clinical practice. Mounting evidence demonstrates that muscle strength measured by HGS is a feasible and reliable metric to evaluate nutritional status, as well as relevant cirrhosis‐related complications

Finding lumbar vertebrae by evidence gathering

, 2000
Low back pain is a very common problem and lumbar segmental instability is one of the causes. It is essential to investigate lumbar spine movement in order to understand instability better and as an aid to diagnosis.
