Obesity, White Adipose Tissue, and Adipokines Signaling in Male Reproduction
Molecular Nutrition &Food Research, EarlyView.Role of adipokines in the hypothalamic‐pituitary‐gonadal axis (HPG) during obesity. Obesity induces structural and functional changes in WAT, with a consequent imbalance in the production and secretion of adipokines. While the adipokines adiponectin and omentin‐1 are downregulated, the adipokines leptin, resistin, vifastin, apelin, and chemerin are ...

Automated Surgical Skill Assessment in Endoscopic Pituitary Surgery using Real-time Instrument Tracking on a High-fidelity Bench-top Phantom [PDF]
arXivImproved surgical skill is generally associated with improved patient outcomes, although assessment is subjective; labour-intensive; and requires domain specific expertise. Automated data driven metrics can alleviate these difficulties, as demonstrated by existing machine learning instrument tracking models in minimally invasive surgery. However, these

Medical Physics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Carbon‐ion rotating gantries use is limited by its large size, weight, and high cost. Gantry‐free modality enables the reduction of the overall size, weight, and cost. Among them, upright treatment, which utilizes fixed ion beamlines, in combination with a treatment chair capable of 360° rotation and adjustable pitch angle (enabling
