Right ventricular outflow tract velocity time integral-to-pulmonary artery systolic pressure ratio: a non-invasive metric of pulmonary arterial compliance differs across the spectrum of pulmonary hypertension. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Pulmonary arterial compliance (PAC), invasively assessed by the ratio of stroke volume to pulmonary arterial (PA) pulse pressure, is a sensitive marker of right ventricular (RV)-PA coupling that differs across the spectrum of pulmonary hypertension (PH ...

Improving organ dose sparing in left‐sided breast cancer with yaw‐limited volumetric modulated arc therapy: A dosimetric comparison to conventional and intensity modulated radiation therapy approaches

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background To assess the dose‐sparing capabilities of a yaw‐limited volumetric modulated arc therapy (YL_VMAT) beam setup for adjacent organs at risk (OAR) in comparison with 3D‐conventional radiation therapy (3D‐CRT), intensity‐modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and conventional VMAT for radiation therapy in left‐sided breast cancer patients.

Airway Expression of Smad7, a TGF-β-inducible Inhibitory Molecule of TGF-β Signaling, Decreases after Repeated Airway Antigen Challenges [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) is a profibrogenic cytokine that is involved in airway remodeling largely associated with chronic asthma. Accordingly, regulators of TGF-β activity could also play some role in airway remodeling in asthma.

Lung Segmentation and Nodule Detection in Computed Tomography Scan using a Convolutional Neural Network Trained Adversarially using Turing Test Loss [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Lung cancer is the most common form of cancer found worldwide with a high mortality rate. Early detection of pulmonary nodules by screening with a low-dose computed tomography (CT) scan is crucial for its effective clinical management. Nodules which are symptomatic of malignancy occupy about 0.0125 - 0.025\% of volume in a CT scan of a patient.
