Unsupervised Community Detection with a Potts Model Hamiltonian, an Efficient Algorithmic Solution, and Applications in Digital Pathology [PDF]
Unsupervised segmentation of large images using a Potts model Hamiltonian is unique in that segmentation is governed by a resolution parameter which scales the sensitivity to small clusters. Here, the input image is first modeled as a graph, which is then segmented by minimizing a Hamiltonian cost function defined on the graph and the respective ...

The effect of graft function on FK506 plasma levels, dosages, and renal function, with particular reference to the liver [PDF]
Plasma FK506 was studied in 49 liver, 13 heart, 3 double-lung or heart-lung, and 21 kidney recipients. The levels were correlated with the drug doses used, kidney function, and liver function.

Objective The objective of this study was to evaluate and compare the risk of hepatotoxicity associated with the use of febuxostat and benzbromarone in patients with gout. Methods New users of febuxostat or benzbromarone with monitoring of liver function at least three times in a year after initiation of the study drugs were identified from an ...

Global Sensitivity Analysis in a Mathematical Model of the Renal Interstitium [PDF]
The pressure in the renal interstitium is an important factor for normal kidney function. Here we develop a computational model of the rat kidney and use it to investigate the relationship between arterial blood pressure and interstitial fluid pressure. In addition, we investigate how tissue flexibility influences this relationship.

Will Incremental Hemodialysis Preserve Residual Function and Improve Patient Survival? [PDF]
The progressive loss of residual renal function in peritoneal dialysis patients is associated with increased mortality. It has been suggested that incremental dialysis may help preserve residual renal function and improve patient survival. Residual renal
