The Role of Erupting Sigmoid in Triggering a Flare with Parallel and Large-Scale Quasi-Circular Ribbons [PDF]

, 2015
In this paper, we present observations and analysis of an interesting sigmoid formation, eruption and the associated flare that occurred on 2014 April 18 using multi-wavelength data sets. We discuss the possible role of the sigmoid eruption in triggering the flare, which consists of two different set of ribbons: parallel ribbons as well as a large ...

Clinical and Economic Insights Into Surgery for Colonic Diverticular Perforation: A Long‐Term Observational Cohort Study

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
The sigmoid colon was the most common perforation site among patients with colonic diverticular perforation. The patients' conditions, length of hospital stay, and hospitalization cost were significantly worse in left‐sided colon diverticular perforation than in right‐sided colon diverticular perforation. The clinical characteristics differed according

Exploring Uncertainty Measures in Deep Networks for Multiple Sclerosis Lesion Detection and Segmentation [PDF]

arXiv, 2018
Deep learning (DL) networks have recently been shown to outperform other segmentation methods on various public, medical-image challenge datasets [3,11,16], especially for large pathologies. However, in the context of diseases such as Multiple Sclerosis (MS), monitoring all the focal lesions visible on MRI sequences, even very small ones, is essential ...

Dense Neural Network Based Arrhythmia Classification on Low-cost and Low-compute Micro-controller [PDF]

Expert Systems with Applications, Volume 239, 2024, 122560, Expert Systems with Applications, Volume 239, Year 2024, Page no. 122560
The electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring device is an expensive albeit essential device for the treatment and diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). The cost of this device typically ranges from $2000 to $10000. Several studies have implemented ECG monitoring systems in micro-controller units (MCU) to reduce industrial development costs by up to 20 ...

Mechanism of Cationic Peptide‐Induced Assembly of Gold Nanoparticles: Modulation of Electrostatic Repulsion

Aggregate, EarlyView.
Cationic peptides aggregate citrate‐capped gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), producing a colorimetric change. The figure highlights the interplay between the intermolecular attractive and repulsive forces governing the colloidal stability of the nanoparticles.

Reprograming of gut microbiome energy metabolism by the FUT2 Crohn's disease risk polymorphism. [PDF]

, 2014
Fucosyltransferase 2 (FUT2) is an enzyme that is responsible for the synthesis of the H antigen in body fluids and on the intestinal mucosa. The H antigen is an oligosaccharide moiety that acts as both an attachment site and carbon source for intestinal ...
