Learning Multi-modal Representations by Watching Hundreds of Surgical Video Lectures [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Recent advancements in surgical computer vision applications have been driven by vision-only models, which do not explicitly integrate the rich semantics of language into their design. These methods rely on manually annotated surgical videos to predict a fixed set of object categories, limiting their generalizability to unseen surgical procedures and ...

Towards Quantifying Neurovascular Resilience [PDF]

Machine Learning and Medical Engineering for Cardiovascular Health and Intravascular Imaging and Computer Assisted Stenting. MLMECH 2019, CVII-STENT 2019. Lecture Notes in Computer Science, vol 11794. Springer, Cham, 2019
Whilst grading neurovascular abnormalities is critical for prompt surgical repair, no statistical markers are currently available for predicting the risk of adverse events, such as stroke, and the overall resilience of a network to vascular complications.

Simultaneous inhibition of TRIM24 and TRIM28 sensitises prostate cancer cells to antiandrogen therapy, decreasing VEGF signalling and angiogenesis

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
TRIM24 and TRIM28 are androgen receptor (AR) coregulators which exhibit increased expression with cancer progression. Both TRIM24 and TRIM28 combine to influence the response of castrate‐resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) cells to AR inhibitors by mediating AR signalling, regulation of MYC and upregulating VEGF to promote angiogenesis. Castrate‐resistant

EFFICACY OF THE ENDOVASCULAR TREATMENT OF THE THORACIC AND ABDOMINAL AORTIC ANEURYSMS IN CARTAGENA, COLOMBIA

Revista Ciencias Biomédicas, 2015
Introduction: The aortic aneurysms (AA) are a segmentary and permanent dilatation of the aorta that could end in a catastrophic outcome named acute aortic syndrome (AAS), which could curse with rupture and in most cases in death.

Complete mesocolic excision does not increase short-term complications in laparoscopic left-sided colectomies : a comparative retrospective single-center study [PDF]

, 2019
Background: Since the implementation of total mesorectal excision (TME) in rectal cancer surgery, oncological outcomes improved dramatically. With the technique of complete mesocolic excision (CME) with central vascular ligation (CVL), the same surgical ...

Understanding and measuring mechanical signals in the tumor stroma

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This review discusses cancer‐associated fibroblast subtypes and their functions, particularly in relation to extracellular matrix production, as well as the development of 3D models to study tumor stroma mechanics in vitro. Several quantitative techniques to measure tissue mechanical properties are also described, to emphasize the diagnostic and ...

Bioengineering facets of the tumor microenvironment in 3D tumor models: insights into cellular, biophysical and biochemical interactions

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The tumor microenvironment is a dynamic, multifaceted complex system of interdependent cellular, biochemical, and biophysical components. Three‐dimensional in vitro models of the tumor microenvironment enable a better understanding of these interactions and their impact on cancer progression and therapeutic resistance.
