Cerebral hemodynamic response to upright position in acute ischemic stroke
IntroductionConcerns exist that a potential mechanism for harm from upright activity (sitting, standing, and walking) early after an acute ischaemic stroke could be the reduction of cerebral perfusion during this critical phase.

Structured Occlusion Coding for Robust Face Recognition [PDF]
Occlusion in face recognition is a common yet challenging problem. While sparse representation based classification (SRC) has been shown promising performance in laboratory conditions (i.e. noiseless or random pixel corrupted), it performs much worse in practical scenarios.

Long-term outcome after a treosulfan-based conditioning regimen for patients with acute myeloid leukemia: A report from the Acute Leukemia Working Party of the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is a curative therapy for patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). However, post-HCT relapse and regimen-related toxicity remain significant barriers to long-term survival.

Robust LSTM-Autoencoders for Face De-Occlusion in the Wild [PDF]
Face recognition techniques have been developed significantly in recent years. However, recognizing faces with partial occlusion is still challenging for existing face recognizers which is heavily desired in real-world applications concerning surveillance and security.

Robust Facial Landmark Detection under Significant Head Poses and Occlusion [PDF]
There have been tremendous improvements for facial landmark detection on general "in-the-wild" images. However, it is still challenging to detect the facial landmarks on images with severe occlusion and images with large head poses (e.g. profile face). In fact, the existing algorithms usually can only handle one of them.

Drugs for preventing red blood cell dehydration in people with sickle cell disease. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Sickle cell disease is an inherited disorder of hemoglobin, resulting in abnormal red blood cells. These are rigid and may block blood vessels leading to acute painful crises and other complications.
