Cavitary bone defects, defined as a volumetric loss of native bone tissue, require accurate preoperative imaging for treatment planning. While CT (computed tomography) has traditionally been the gold standard for segmentation due to its superior resolution of cortical bone, MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) offers unique advantages, particularly in visuali ...

Background: The distribution of the m6A methylation modification on the transcriptome is highly regionally selective and is mainly concentrated in abnormally long exons and stop codons. However, in-depth research on the selective mechanism of m6A methylation is still lacking. Methods: In this research, meRIP sequencing, mRNA sequencing, meRIP, luciferase ...

Background: An increasing body of evidence highlights the utility of examining adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) utilizing person-centered analytical approaches, particularly for understanding the organization and co-occurrence of ACEs, and their contributions to risk, vulnerability, and the development of intervention efforts. Methods: In the first s ...

Zero-shot counting is a subcategory of Generic Visual Object Counting, which aims to count objects from an arbitrary class in a given image. While few-shot counting relies on delivering exemplars to the model to count similar class objects, zero-shot counting automates the operation for faster processing. This paper proposes a fully automated zero-shot me ...

Transformed from p-phenylenediamines (PPDs) antioxidant, PPD-derived quinones (PPD-Qs) have recently been recognized as emerging contaminants due to their potential negative impacts on the environment and human health. While there have been measurements of airborne PPD-Qs, the size distribution of PPD-Qs and the impact of particle size on PPD transformati ...

Purpose: Statistical shape models (SSMs) are widely used for morphological assessment of anatomical structures. However, a key limitation is the need for a clear relationship between the model's shape coefficients and clinically relevant anatomical parameters. To address this limitation, this paper proposes a novel deep learning-based anatomically par ...

Background and aims: The Moral Incongruence Model of Pornography Use proposes that pornography-use-related problems may be present due to problematic pornography use (PPU) and/or moral disapproval (MD) of pornography use. Despite some supporting empirical evidence, no study has tested the presenc ...

Sleep research has evolved considerably since the first sleep electroencephalography recordings in the 1930s and the discovery of well-distinguishable sleep stages in the 1950s. While electrophysiological recordings have been used to describe the sleeping brain in much detail, since the 1990s neu ...

Background: Deciphering variants of uncertain significance (VUS) represents a major diagnostic challenge, partially due to the lack of easy-to-use and versatile cellular readouts that aid the interpretation of pathogenicity and pathophysiology. To address this challenge, we propose a high-through ...

Monitoring for mycotoxins in food or feed matrices is necessary to ensure the safety and security of global food systems. Due to a lack of standardized methods and individual laboratory priorities, most institutions have developed their own methods for mycotoxin determinations. Given the diversit ...
