PURPOSE A locally segmented parallel imaging reconstruction method is proposed that efficiently utilizes sensitivity distribution of multichannel receiver coil. THEORY AND METHODS A method of locally segmenting a MR signal is introduced to maximize the differences in sensitivity between receiver channels. A 1D Fourier transformation of the…[Read more]

aureus load in the tissues. The overexpression levels of IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-6 induced by S. aureus were inhibited after OS treatment. Furthermore, the increased phosphorylation of NF-κB and MAPKs proteins were also suppressed. The results suggest that dietary supplementation with adequate OS during pregnancy contributes to protect the mammary gl…[Read more]

3%) vaccinated with IIV4. The most frequent ARs were vaccination site pain and fever for IIV3, and vaccination site pain, vaccination site inflammation, myalgia, and headache for IIV4. The 2018/19 AR rates for IIV3 were comparable to 2017/18 rates. The 2018/19 AR rates for IIV4 were higher than those in 2017/18 but were still lower than the…[Read more]

Fetal skeletal dysplasia (FSD) comprises a complex group of systemic bone and cartilage disorders. Many FSD phenotypes have indistinct definitions, making definitive prenatal diagnosis difficult. The condition is…[Read more]
