Temporal action detection (TAD) is extensively studied in the video understanding community by generally following object pipeline images. However, complex designs are not uncommon TAD, such as two-stream feature extraction, multi-stage training, temporal modeling, and global context fusion. In this paper, we do aim to introduce any novel technique for TAD. Instead, study a simple, straightforw...

Abstract Aim Dynamic hip screws (DHS) and intramedullary nail (IMN) fixations have been successful in treating extracapsular fractures. Tip to apex distance (TAD) is defined as the total sum of from tip lag screw femoral head on both AP lateral radiographs. Baumgartner et al. TAD<25 mm be predictive a result, with reduced rates metalwork failure. Therefore, this study aims assess if TAD ...

BACKGROUND Insulin resistance impairs nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability and obesity promotes a state of chronic inflammation and damages the vascular endothelium. Phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors restore NO signaling and may reduce circulating inflammatory markers, and improve metabolic parameters through a number of mechanisms. We hypothesized that daily administration of the PDE-5 inhibitor, ta...

Bacterial attachment to the substratum involves several cell surface organelles, including various types of pili. The Pseudomonas aeruginosa Tad machine assembles type IVb pili, which are required for adhesion to abiotic surfaces and to eukaryotic cells. Type IVb pili consist of a major subunit, the Flp pilin, processed by the FppA prepilin peptidase. In this study, we investigated the regulato...

UNLABELLED BACKGROUND Although it is speculated that scoliosis may induce cardiac dysfunction, there is no report about evaluation of cardiac function, especially right cardiac function in patients with scoliosis. Therefore, we evaluated right ventricular function in idiopathic scoliotic patients with mild to severe curves and compared them with healthy children and adolescents matched in ag...

The tad locus of Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans encodes a molecular transport system required for tenacious, nonspecific adherence to surfaces and formation of extremely strong biofilms. This locus is dedicated to the biogenesis of Flp pili, which are required for colonization and virulence. We have previously shown that 11 of the 14 tad locus genes are required for adherence and Flp pilu...

OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of moderate-or-less functional tricuspid regurgitation (TR) treatment on the clinical outcome of patients with mitral valve (MV) surgery. METHODS From October 2001 to January 2005, 167 patients in our hospital with MV surgery and without organic tricuspid valve (TV) disease or pulmonary hypertension (PH) showed moderate-or-less f...

Existing temporal action detection (TAD) methods rely on large training data including segment-level annotations, limited to recognizing previously seen classes alone during inference. Collecting and annotating a set for each class of interest is costly hence unscalable. Zero-shot TAD (ZS-TAD) resolves this obstacle by enabling pre-trained model recognize any unseen classes. Meanwhile, ZS-TAD a...

Abstract Aim Targeted Axillary Dissection (TAD) is a procedure where positive axillary nodes are clipped with view to sentinel lymph node dissection plus removal of post-neoadjuvant therapies (NACT) rather than clearance (ANC), reducing morbidity. This study aimed assess whether patients single undergoing NACT would benefit from TAD. Method Patients planned for TAD post-NACT were identified the...
