Incorporating a Spatial Prior into Nonlinear D-Bar EIT imaging for Complex Admittivities [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2016
Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) aims to recover the internal conductivity and permittivity distributions of a body from electrical measurements taken on electrodes on the surface of the body. The reconstruction task is a severely ill-posed nonlinear inverse problem that is highly sensitive to measurement noise and modeling errors.

Trichomonas in pleural effusion [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Journal, 1994
Numerous living trichomonads were seen in a parapneumonic pleural effusion, in a patient who was at risk of aspiration pneumonia because of acute alcoholism. Of all the drugs administered, metronidazole had the most favourable therapeutic effect. However, decortication was necessary for the successful outcome.

Mortality among patients with pleural effusion undergoing thoracentesis

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Journal, 2015
Of the 1.5 million people diagnosed with pleural effusion in the USA annually, ∼178 000 undergo thoracentesis. While it is known that malignant pleural effusion portends a poor prognosis, mortality of patients with nonmalignant effusions has not been ...

Hierarchical clustering of clinical and flow cytometry parameters is associated with deterioration in patients with community‐acquired pneumonia in the emergency department: A preliminary study

open access: yesCytometry Part B: Clinical Cytometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Anticipating the evolution of septic patients with community‐acquired pneumonia (CAP) is challenging for front‐line physicians in the Emergency Department (ED). Prognosis depends mainly on early identification, antibiotics, organ support, but also immune status.

Cytologic Diagnoses of Lung Adenocarcinoma With Concomitant Metastasis From a Different Primary: A Case Series

open access: yesDiagnostic Cytopathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lung adenocarcinoma is a common malignancy that can metastasize. The lung is also a common site for metastasis from other sites. Prompt and accurate diagnosis is critical for patient management. The diagnosis of lung adenocarcinoma can be occasionally challenging due to overlapping clinical and pathological features with adenocarcinomas from ...

Markers for internal neoplasia in the horse

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 9, Issue 1, Page 132-143, January 2023., 2023
The measurement of tumour markers in horses should be performed only in risk groups or in patients with suspicious clinical/laboratory findings (paraneoplastic syndromes). The results should be interpreted with caution as many factors (e.g., young age, pregnancy and inflammation) affect their concentration or activity.

MoCo-CXR: MoCo Pretraining Improves Representation and Transferability of Chest X-ray Models [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Contrastive learning is a form of self-supervision that can leverage unlabeled data to produce pretrained models. While contrastive learning has demonstrated promising results on natural image classification tasks, its application to medical imaging tasks like chest X-ray interpretation has been limited.
