n MR neurography. Denoising can potentially provide improved accuracy of FF maps for assessing fat-infiltrated muscle.

WW and PCA-denoising improved nerve conspicuity and fat suppression in MR neurography. Denoising can potentially provide improved accuracy of FF maps for assessing fat-infiltrated muscle.Galectin-3 (Gal-3) is the only member of…[Read more]

45) during exercise correlated with the lowest V̇E/V̇CO2 ratio (P less then 0.05 for all). In contrast, in HFrEF, age (r=0.47) and CO (r=-0.54) during exercise, but not e’ and E/e’, correlated with the lowest V̇E/V̇CO2 ratio. Conclusions Loss of CO augmentation was associated with ventilatory inefficiency in HF regardless of LVEF, although lun…[Read more]

In summary, we reported a feasible application for aggregation-induced emission dots as biliary contrast agent and realized high-quality cholangiography in the near-infrared IIb window with precise diagnostic ability and nonradioactive damage, which could possibly be applied for intraoperative diagnosis.Inhibition of herpes simplex virus type 1…[Read more]

Indices such as the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), mean platelet volume (MPV), platelet distribution width (PDW), and red cell distribution width (RDW) are considered new markers of the systemic inflammatory response (SIR), and have been widely implemented for the diagnosis of patients with inflammatory…[Read more]

Frailty is a geriatric syndrome with negative health impacts not captured by comorbidity and disability alone. The prevalence of frailty in Parkinson’s disease (PD) has been described, but data on frailty-associated outcomes are limited.

To describe the level of frailty and investigate the association between frailty and outcomes in a…[Read more]
