BACKGROUND: Prediction models for sentinel lymph node (SLN) status could potentially substitute surgical axillary staging in patients with early breast cancer. Several imaging modalities have been used with various feature extraction and selection approaches. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate prediction models for SLN status based on breast imaging in patients with early b

Rationale: Knowledge regarding the prevalence and shared and unique characteristics of the restrictive spirometric pattern (RSP) and preserved ratio impaired spirometry (PRISm) is lacking for a general population investigated with post-bronchodilator spirometry and computed tomography of the lungs. Objectives: To investigate shared and unique features for RSP and PRISm. Methods: In the Swedish CAr

Background Indications with poor T-cell infiltration or deficiencies in T-cell priming and associated unresponsiveness to established immunotherapies represent an unmet medical need in oncology. CD40-targeting therapies designed to enhance antigen presentation, generate new tumor-specific T cells, and activate tumor-infiltrating myeloid cells to remodel the tumor microenvironment, represent a prom

Introduction Adequately addressing the needs of patients at the end of life and their relatives is pivotal in preventing unnecessary suffering and optimising their quality of life. The purpose of the iLIVE study is to contribute to high-quality personalised care at the end of life in different countries and cultures, by investigating the experiences, concerns, preferences and use of care of termin

Virtual Clinical Trials (VCT) are an effective tool to evaluate the performance of novel imaging systems using computer simulations. VCT results depend on the selection of virtual patient populations. In the case of breast imaging, virtual patients should be matched to a desired clinical population in terms of selected anatomical or demographic descriptors. We are developing a virtual population o

Depression is a common, recurrent disorder. There is a need for readily available treatments with few negative side effects, that demands little resources and that are effective both in the short- and long term. Our aim was to investigate the long-term effectiveness of two different interventions; physical exercise and internet-based cognitive behavioural therapy (internet-CBT), compared to usual

Acquisition of irregular verb forms in L2 French: does the L1 of the learners explain the difference ? This study explores L1 effects on the production of subject-verb agreement in number (singular vs. plural) in L2 French. L1 influence has rarely been explored in detail in this context, especially compared to other factors such as input frequency of specific verb forms, singular vs plural entitie

Purpose of Review: This review sought to describe quality improvement initiatives in fragility fracture care and prevention. Recent Findings: A major care gap persists throughout the world in the secondary prevention of fragility fractures. Systematic reviews have confirmed that the Fracture Liaison Service (FLS) model of care is associated with significant improvements in rates of bone mineral de

Huntington disease (HD) is an autosomal dominant neurodegenerative disorder caused by expanded CAG repeats in the huntingtin gene (HTT). Although mutant HTT is expressed during embryonic development and throughout life, clinical HD usually manifests later in adulthood. A number of studies document neurodevelopmental changes associated with mutant HTT, but whether these are reversible under therapy

Russ et al. show that human astrocytes adopt different reactive immune phenotypes when exposed to either TNF-α or alpha-synuclein fibrils, which are exogenous stressors that compete to drive the astrocyte immune reactive response. They also show that PARK2-variant-containing astrocytes exhibit an exacerbated response to the stressors, accompanied by bioenergetic defects.

This study presents how sequential infiltration synthesis of trimethyl aluminium and water into a carbohydrate-based block copolymer was used to enable pattern transfer of 6 nm half-pitch horizontal cylinders into silicon. Specular neutron reflectometry measurements of poly(styrene)-block-maltoheptaose self-assembled into horizontal cylinders indicate an increasing content of alumina after each se

BACKGROUND: The medial temporal lobe (MTL) is hypothesized to be relatively spared in early-onset Alzheimer's disease (EOAD). Yet, detailed examination of MTL subfield volumes and drivers of atrophy in amnestic EOAD is lacking.METHODS: BioFINDER-2 participants with memory impairment, abnormal amyloid-β status and tau-PET were included. Forty-one EOAD individuals aged ≤65 years and, as comparison,

Optical imaging utilize light to analyze biological tissues in detail, non-invasively and without harmful radiation. Examples include ultrasound optical tomography and photoacoustic imaging; both use a limited number of wavelengths. Diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, another optical technique, covers a continuous wavelength range, but without generating an image. This study focuses on extended-wave

The capabilities of ultrasound optical tomography (UOT) is investigated through Monte Carlo simulations on realistic breast tissue phantoms constructed using the OpenVCT platform. This work indicates that UOT is a method capable of distinguishing malignant tumor tissue from benign glandular tissue deep inside the breast, despite the natural variations of adipose and glandular compartments within a

The prospect of death influences people’s thoughts about and how they deal with their remaining time. We aimed to understand whether patients with progressive, life-limiting diseases are oriented in the past, present, or future and how they deal with temporality. We conducted 57 in-depth interviews with end-of-life patients in 10 countries using thematic analysis at three levels (i.e., locally in

We present a Raman study of axially heterostructured InP/InGaP nanowires (NWs) for tandem solar cells. The study is carried out using both microRaman spectroscopy (µ-Raman), and tip enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS). The results obtained by both methods are compared. The results obtained with each one is supported by the simulation of the light/NW interaction using finite element methods. This si
