Effect of Physical Activity on Blood Sugar and Cortisol Level among The Elderly with Depression in Semarang, Central Java [PDF]

, 2018
Background: Major depression have been shown in earlier studies to be associated with cortisol changes in old depressed patients. A positive correlation was also demonstrated between cortisol levels and physical capacity.

Producing high quality cranial SRS plans with 4Pi planning technique in a commercial clinical solution

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To generate high‐quality stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) plans for single cranial lesions using 4Pi planning technique and compare these to our clinical “status quo” plans. Methods Eighteen vestibular schwannoma (VS) patients previously planned with Varian Eclipse RapidArc and treated on a Varian TrueBeam using 6FFF MV photon beams ...

The Benefits of Physical Activity on Depression [PDF]

, 2020
Physical exercise can be an effective counter-measure against depression. Activity need not be strenuous and it may reduce the risk for depression, even among those with a family history or genetic disposition for depression. And depression in itself may

Energy dependence of the GAFCHROMIC LD‐V1 in the diagnostic radiographic modalities

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract The GAFCHROMIC LD‐V1 radiochromic film is widely used in dosimetry because it can provide high‐resolution two‐dimensional dose distributions without processing. This study aimed to evaluate the response characteristics at different effective energies, from the low‐energy range of mammography to the high‐energy range of computed tomography. Net

Automated rapidplan model validation using Eclipse scripting API

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract RapidPlan offers efficiency gains and quality improvements in treatment planning. Prior to its use in the clinic, it requires an extensive validation procedure in which established clinical plans and those generated by the model are compared. The manual iterative nature of this process is resource intensive, as numerous iterations are required

UR‐cycleGAN: Denoising full‐body low‐dose PET images using cycle‐consistent Generative Adversarial Networks

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study aims to develop a CycleGAN based denoising model to enhance the quality of low‐dose PET (LDPET) images, making them as close as possible to standard‐dose PET (SDPET) images. Methods Using a Philips Vereos PET/CT system, whole‐body PET images of fluorine‐18 fluorodeoxyglucose (18F‐FDG) were acquired from 37 patients to ...

Physical activity in adolescents

Jornal de Pediatria, 2009
publish an article entitled “Prevalence of physical inactivity and associated factors among high school students from state’s public schools.” This topic is very important because physical activity has important health benefits in youth. Physical inactivity is associated with a clustering of cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors in youth, i.e., the

Acceptability of Social Media Incentives to Increase Physical Activity [PDF]

, 2019
Background: Contingency management can be effective in promoting physical activity, but the change frequently does not sustain after the intervention is withdrawn. A feasible and sustainable physical activity intervention is needed. Social media may meet

Dosimetric evaluation and clinical application of collimated apertures with proton beam line scanning in stereotactic radiotherapy

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) is a highly effective treatment with precision for small, localized lesions. Proton therapy, characterized by the Bragg peak, offers superior dose conformity compared to photon‐based approaches. However, challenges remain in minimizing lateral penumbra and optimizing dose delivery, particularly for small
