Mouse model of rheumatoid arthritis
Adipue and colleagues [1] have characterized the novel IIJ (inherited infl amed joints) mouse strain, a new murine model of infl ammatory, possibly autoimmune, arthritis that is similar both histologically and serologically to human rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and other murine models of autoimmune arthritis [1]. RA is a chronic and progressive infl ammatory disorder characterized by synovitis and...
متن کاملEvaluation of reproducibility for manual and semi-automated feature extraction in CT and MR images
Three methods for extraction and quantitative measurement of features in CT and MR images are examined: hand tracing, semi-automated tracing using the livewire graph search algorithm, and extraction using a geometrically constrained region growth algorithm. Extracted structures are evaluated in terms of volume, cross-sectional area, and major axis in plane. Reproducibility, time required for ex...
متن کاملA Semi-Automatic Evaluation Scheme: Automated Nuggetization for Manual Annotation
In this paper we describe automatic information nuggetization and its application to text comparison. More specifically, we take a close look at how machine-generated nuggets can be used to create evaluation material. A semiautomatic annotation scheme is designed to produce gold-standard data with exceptionally high inter-human agreement.
متن کاملStructural integrity versus radiographic progression in rheumatoid arthritis.
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic, progressive and inflammatory disease often leading to irreversible destruction of articular structures and consequent disability. The key steps of RA pathogenetic mechanisms are the break of immune tolerance and the production of autoantibodies, followed by systemic and local inflammation resulting in damage of both subchondral bone (erosion) and cartilag...
متن کاملRadiographic progression in rheumatoid arthritis.
Radiographic progression is an important outcome measure in clinical trials and observational studies with patients with rheuamtoid arthritis. In this article we describe several aspects of measuring radiographic progression. We introduce the scoring method, discuss scoring methodology and issues regarding reliability of scoring, describe the relation between disease activity, radiographic prog...
