Serum tumor necrosis factor α levels at 3 h after infusion were significantly higher in CAA group than in NAA group. After TPIAT, the metabolic outcomes of the CAA group were comparable with that of the NAA group. Narcotics usage decreased significantly over 24 months in both groups, with the CAA group reporting being pain free at 12 months.…[Read more]

The ability to segment whole slide images, as well as defining the size and the number of regions of interest to be quantified, makes this MATLAB algorithm a potential histomorphometric tool for obtaining more objective, precise, and reproducible quantitative assessments of entire critical-sized bone defect image data sets in an efficient and…[Read more]

For the intervention to have an 80% chance of being cost-effective, the decision-maker needs to be willing to pay $5942 per month of total symptom remission. DUP ≤ 12 weeks was associated with a reduction in costs of $12 276 even if no value is placed on additional months in total remission. Extending EIS for psychosis for people, such as those i…[Read more]

al fluid leakage. These results challenge the assumption that brain tissue volume is a fixed constant.

The current study found the brain tissue volume and ventricular cerebrospinal fluid are decreased in spontaneous intracranial hypotension patients. The change in ventricular cerebrospinal fluid volume, but not brain tissue volume change, was…[Read more]
