Semi‐supervised classification of fundus images combined with CNN and GCN
Abstract Purpose Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is one of the most serious complications of diabetes, which is a kind of fundus lesion with specific changes. Early diagnosis of DR can effectively reduce the visual damage caused by DR. Due to the variety and different morphology of DR lesions, automatic classification of fundus images in mass screening can ...

A human inhibitor of tumor necrosis factor alpha. [PDF]
Urine of some febrile patients exhibits a TNF-alpha inhibitory activity (TNF-alpha INH), sensitive to heat and trypsin, with an apparent mol wt of 40-60 X 10(3) and a pI range of 5.5-6.1. As for the Il-1 INH, the TNF INH activity involves a competitive mechanism of action suggesting the existence of a family of negative feedback-regulating molecules ...

We determined whether tumor necrosis factor-alpha-converting enzyme (TACE) is expressed with tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) in myocarditis.Tumor necrosis factor-alpha-converting enzyme, which has recently been identified as belonging to the family of metalloproteinase disintegrin proteins, is responsible for the conversion of TNF-alpha ...

The role of tumor necrosis factor-α and natural killer cells in uterine artery function and pregnancy outcome in the stroke prone spontaneously hypertensive rat [PDF]
Women with chronic hypertension are at increased risk of maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. We have previously characterized the stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHRSP) as a model of deficient uterine artery function and adverse ...

Tumor necrosis factor alpha and mesangial cells
Bacterial infections promote important alterations in immune, hemodynamic, and metabolic function which can result in irreversible shock. These changes are mediated by host-secreted cytokines rather than by direct action of the endotoxin lipopolysaccharide (LPS) derived from the cell wall of bacteria.

Role of tumor necrosis factor-α and its receptors in diesel exhaust particle-induced pulmonary inflammation [PDF]
Inhalation of diesel exhaust particles (DEP) induces an inflammatory reaction in the lung. However, the underlying mechanisms remain to be elucidated. Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) is a proinflammatory cytokine that operates by binding to tumor

Evaluation of Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha Polymorphism Frequencies in Endometriosis [PDF]
Background The pro-inflammatory cytokine, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), is a pathogenic element for a number of disorders. Previous studies have reported that the -1031 T/C and -238 G/A polymorphisms in the promoter region of the TNF-α gene are ...
