Person image generation aims to synthesize realistic person images that follow the same distribution as given dataset. Previous attempts can be generally categorized into two classes: conditional GAN and unconditional GAN. The former usually uses pose information condition make transfer using generated have identity source person. latter generates from scratch, real are only used references for...

The immune system has evolved to protect the body against infectious microbes and toxic insults. To achieve this mission, the immune system contains a plethora of well-choreographed defense mechanisms. Cells of the immune system, such as specific killer T cells, natural killer cells, polymorphonuclear leukocytes, and macrophages, directly attack pathogens. Cells involved in humoral and cellular...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Cogan's syndrome (CS) is a rare autoimmune disease with less than 250 cases reported. It mainly affects the audiovestibular system and the eyes frequently resulting in deafness. Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) consists of two subtypes, Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), and represents a common form of chronic intestinal inflammation. Here, we report an associ...

Opsoclonus, originally described by Orzechowski (1927), may be defined as continuous irregular, chaotic, conjugate eye movement in all directions (Smith and Walsh, 1960). Often, although not invariably, it occurs in conjunction with myoclonic movements affecting the head and limbs. The syndrome has been reported most frequently among infants and children (Smith and Walsh, 1960; Cogan, 1954; Mar...

Objective This literature review and meta-analysis was performed to evaluate the correlations among hearing and vestibular clinical symptoms, temporal bone findings, and pathological mechanisms in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Study design Relevant papers in the literature were retrospectively reviewed. Clinical hearing aspects in patients with SLE and relevant temporal bone...

Immune-mediated pathogenesis has been suggested for idiopathic sensorineural hearing loss. Recent studies have investigated the relationship between idiopathic sensorineural hearing loss and autoantibodies against inner ear antigens. We conducted a prospective, observational study in a series of pediatric patients affected by idiopathic sensorineural hearing loss. Autoantibodies against inner e...

The antisaccade (AS) task, which requires the ability to suppress unwanted reflexive glances, has proven to be a powerful tool for the analysis of executive control. Performing this task activates a large frontoparietal network, but which area is specifically responsible for reflexive saccade (RS) inhibition has not yet been demonstrated. We reversibly inactivated portions of the principal sulc...
