Accuracy and reproducibility of a single‐pose image‐to‐robot registration method for mobile C‐arm cone beam CT guided histotripsy

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Histotripsy is a focal tumor therapy that utilizes focused ultrasound (US) to mechanically destroy tissue. To overcome visualization limitations of diagnostic US‐guidance, C‐arm cone beam CT (CBCT)‐guided histotripsy is being developed, for which a mobile C‐arm could increase accessibility. CBCT‐guided histotripsy uses a phantom with a

Entomological effects of attractive targeted sugar bait station deployment in Western Zambia: vector surveillance findings from a two-arm cluster randomized phase III trial

Malaria Journal
Background Attractive targeted sugar bait (ATSB) stations are a novel tool with potential to complement current approaches to malaria vector control. To assess the public health value of ATSB station deployment in areas of high coverage with standard ...

HPV-based cervical cancer screening in Nicaragua: from testing to treatment

BMC Public Health, 2020
Background In Nicaragua, cervical cancer is the leading cause of cancer death among women. Human papillomavirus (HPV) testing, primarily using self-sampling, was introduced between 2014 and 2018 in three provinces. We analyzed data from the HPV screening

The on-line shortest path problem under partial monitoring [PDF]

, 2007
The on-line shortest path problem is considered under various models of partial monitoring. Given a weighted directed acyclic graph whose edge weights can change in an arbitrary (adversarial) way, a decision maker has to choose in each round of a game a ...

Survey on Coverage Path Planning with Unmanned Aerial Vehicles

Drones, 2019
Coverage path planning consists of finding the route which covers every point of a certain area of interest. In recent times, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have been employed in several application domains involving terrain coverage, such as ...

HPDL Variant Type Correlates With Clinical Disease Onset and Severity

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Recently, a mitochondrial encephalopathy due to biallelic HPDL variants was described, associated with a broad range of clinical manifestations ranging from severe, infantile‐onset neurodegeneration to adolescence‐onset hereditary spastic paraplegia. HPDL converts 4‐hydroxyphenylpyruvate acid (4‐HPPA) into 4‐hydroxymandelate (4‐HMA),

Shortest paths between shortest paths

Theoretical Computer Science, 2011
AbstractWe study the following problem on reconfiguring shortest paths in graphs: Given two shortest s–t paths, what is the minimum number of steps required to transform one into the other, where each intermediate path must also be a shortest s–t path and must differ from the previous one by only one vertex.

Validity and Reliability of Clinical and Patient‐Reported Outcomes in Multisystem Proteinopathy 1

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Valosin‐containing protein (VCP)‐associated multisystem proteinopathy 1 (MSP1) is caused by variants in the VCP gene. MSP1 results in various phenotypes including progressive myopathy, Paget's disease of bone, frontotemporal dementia, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and parkinsonism, among others.

Malaria case investigation with reactive focal testing and treatment: operational feasibility and lessons learned from low and moderate transmission areas in Amhara Region, Ethiopia

Malaria Journal, 2018
Background When malaria transmission is very low, investigation of passively detected malaria cases and reactive focal testing and treatment (FTAT) in the case and neighbouring households can identify and contain the source and spread of infections ...

Paths in hyperspaces

Applied General Topology, 2003
<p>We prove that the hyperspace of closed bounded sets with the Hausdor_ topology, over an almost convex metric space, is an absolute retract. Dense subspaces of normed linear spaces are examples of, not necessarily connected, almost convex metric spaces.
