Liraglutide for idiopathic intracranial hypertension: a real‐world propensity score‐matched study

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is a neurological disorder predominantly affecting young women with obesity, characterized by elevated intracranial pressure. While current treatments include weight loss counseling, medical therapies, and surgical interventions, their limitations necessitate exploring novel therapeutic ...

Effects of Channelling a Peripherally Inserted Central Venous Catheter on Blood Flow

Fluids
A catheter is a device that is inserted into the venous system to infuse treatment with controlled doses per unit of time. The study of its interaction with blood flow cannot be easily analysed with common analytical methods or different visualization ...

PVTree: Realistic and Controllable Palm Vein Generation for Recognition Tasks [PDF]

arXiv
Palm vein recognition is an emerging biometric technology that offers enhanced security and privacy. However, acquiring sufficient palm vein data for training deep learning-based recognition models is challenging due to the high costs of data collection and privacy protection constraints.

A Novel Approach For Finger Vein Verification Based on Self-Taught Learning [PDF]

arXiv, 2015
In this paper, we propose a method for user Finger Vein Authentication (FVA) as a biometric system. Using the discriminative features for classifying theses finger veins is one of the main tips that make difference in related works, Thus we propose to learn a set of representative features, based on autoencoders.

An MRI assessment of mechanisms underlying lesion growth and shrinkage in multiple sclerosis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
By applying the tensor model, we analysed lesion orientation and the directionality of lesion expansion/contraction in multiple sclerosis. Each lesion is summarized as an ellipsoid, and the tensor model is applied to calculate lesion anisotropy. From the top to the bottom white matter atlas, surface‐in gradient segmentation and venous atlas used in the

Hybrid endovascular and surgical staged approach for mycotic carotid pseudoaneurysms: a case report and literature review

Frontiers in Surgery
BackgroundMycotic carotid pseudoaneurysms represent a challenge for surgeons. They are rare and associated with high mortality and morbidity.MethodsWe reported a case of a 61-year-old man with a mycotic pseudoaneurysm of carotid bifurcation. The case was

Holocrine Secretion and Kino Flow in Angiosperms: Their Role and Physiological Advantages in Plant Defence Mechanisms [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
Kinos are plant exudates, rich in polyphenols, produced by several angiosperms in reaction to damage. They flow out of kino veins, schizolysigenous ducts composing an anatomically distinct continuous system of tangentially anastomosing lacunae produced by the vascular cambium, which encircle the plant. Kino is secreted holocrinously into the vein lumen

Development of a Disease Model for Predicting Postoperative Delirium Using Combined Blood Biomarkers

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Postoperative delirium, a common neurocognitive complication after surgery and anesthesia, requires early detection for potential intervention. Herein, we constructed a multidimensional postoperative delirium risk‐prediction model incorporating multiple demographic parameters and blood biomarkers to enhance prediction accuracy ...
