MicroRNA-regulated transcriptome analysis identifies four major subtypes with prognostic and therapeutic implications in prostate cancer

open access: yesComputational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2021
MicroRNA (miRNA) deregulation plays a critical role in the heterogeneous development of prostate cancer (PCa) by tuning mRNA levels. Herein, we aimed to characterize the molecular features of PCa by clustering the miRNA-regulated transcriptome with non ...

Faecal incontinence is associated with an impaired rectosigmoid brake and improved by sacral neuromodulation

open access: yesColorectal Disease, Volume 24, Issue 12, Page 1556-1566, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background The rectosigmoid brake, characterised by retrograde cyclic motor patterns on high‐resolution colonic manometry, has been postulated as a contributor to the maintenance of bowel continence. Sacral neuromodulation (SNM) is an effective therapy for faecal incontinence, but its mechanism of action is unclear.

Automatic segmentation method of pelvic floor levator hiatus in ultrasound using a self-normalising neural network [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Segmentation of the levator hiatus in ultrasound allows to extract biometrics which are of importance for pelvic floor disorder assessment. In this work, we present a fully automatic method using a convolutional neural network (CNN) to outline the levator hiatus in a 2D image extracted from a 3D ultrasound volume.
