DFGET: Displacement-Field Assisted Graph Energy Transmitter for Gland Instance Segmentation [PDF]
Gland instance segmentation is an essential but challenging task in the diagnosis and treatment of adenocarcinoma. The existing models usually achieve gland instance segmentation through multi-task learning and boundary loss constraint. However, how to deal with the problems of gland adhesion and inaccurate boundary in segmenting the complex samples ...

1,25-(OH)2D receptors are decreased in parathyroid glands from chronically uremic dogs [PDF]
1,25-(OH)2D receptors are decreased in parathyroid glands from chronically uremic dogs. 1,25-(OH)2D has been shown to suppress the synthesis and secretion of parathyroid hormone in vivo and in dispersed parathyroid cell cultures. Control of transcription

Initial experience of intraoperative identification of parathyroid glands with elastic scattering spectroscopy [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Postoperative hypoparathyroidism due to damage to the parathyroid glands during a thyroidectomy is a well-known surgical complication. The current gold standard intraoperative method for identifying parathyroid glands is surgical judgment ...

Imaging of the parathyroid glands in primary hyperparathyroidism.
Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is one of the most frequent endocrine diseases worldwide. Surgery is the only potentially curable option for patients with this disorder, even though in asymptomatic patients 50 years of age or older without end organ ...

An automated and multi-parametric algorithm for objective analysis of meibography images [PDF]
Meibography is a non-contact imaging technique used by ophthalmologists to assist in the evaluation and diagnosis of meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD). While artificial qualitative analysis of meibography images could lead to low repeatability and efficiency and multi-parametric analysis is demanding to offer more comprehensive information in ...

Mitochondrial DNA Mutations in Oxyphilic and Chief Cell Parathyroid Adenomas [PDF]
Background: The potential pathogenetic significance of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations in tumorigenesis is controversial. We hypothesized that benign tumorigenesis of a slowly replicating tissue like the human parathyroid might constitute an ...

Gastrointestinal symptoms in patients with isolated oligodontia and a Wnt gene mutation
Abstract Objective Since Wnt signaling plays an important role in both tooth agenesis and altered intestine homeostasis, the aim was to compare gastrointestinal symptoms in patients with isolated oligodontia caused by a Wnt pathway gene mutation and controls.

Synthesis of Annotated Colorectal Cancer Tissue Images from Gland Layout [PDF]
Generating realistic tissue images with annotations is a challenging task that is important in many computational histopathology applications. Synthetically generated images and annotations are valuable for training and evaluating algorithms in this domain.

Deciphering the skeletal interoceptive circuitry to control bone homeostasis
This review introduces the skeletal interoceptive circuitry, covering the ascending signals from bone tissues to the brain (sensors), the central neural circuits that integrate this information and dispatch commands (CPU), and the descending pathways that regulate bone homeostasis (effectors).

In patients with femoral head necrosis, strong positive reaction of LC3‐II could be identified in the cytoplasm of osteoclasts, in significant contrast to the background. A trabecula was surrounded by several LC3‐II‐positive osteoclasts, which were in close contact with the trabecula.
