Automatic functional region annotation of liver should be very useful for preoperative planning of liver resection in the clinical domain. However, many traditional computer-aided annotation methods based on anatomical landmarks or the vascular tree often fail to extract accurate liver segments. Furthermore, these methods are difficult to…[Read more]

Despite reports that metformin inhibits complex I activity, our findings did not show worsening a complex I defect nor increases in lactic acid, suggesting that metformin should be further evaluated for use in…[Read more]

Although recombinant human TRAIL has shown high potency and specificity for killing cancer cells in preclinical studies, it has…[Read more]

Overall knee outcomes were good; the mean Lysholm score at final follow-up was 75.5±16.8 (range 36-100). No significant differences were identified in any of the sub-groups. Conclusions We were unable to identify any differences in knee proprioceptive acuity betwee…[Read more]

They are at risk for different complications, and more specific of them are cardiopulmonary complications. Currently, there are no standard recommendations concerning screening for risk factors, prophylaxis, or anticoagulation…[Read more]
