Background: Erythematotelangiectatic rosacea (ETR) features persistent erythema, flushing, telangiectasia and hyperpigmentation. Our previous study revealed that carvedilol is sufficient to ameliorate erythema with poor efficiency in improving α-hydroxy acid (αHA) treatment intense pulsed light (IPL) have both been indicated improve Objective: aimed explore the impact of αHA combination IPL on ...

Current method of diagnosing kidney rejection based on histopathology of renal biopsies in form of lesion scores is error-prone. Researchers use gene expression microarrays in combination of machine learning to build better kidney rejection predictors. However the high dimensionality of data makes this task challenging and compels application of feature selection methods. We present a method fo...

IMPORTANCE Cortical lesions (CLs) contribute to physical and cognitive disability in multiple sclerosis (MS). Accurate methods for visualization of CLs are necessary for future clinical studies and therapeutic trials in MS. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the clinical relevance of measures of CL burden derived from high-field magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in MS. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS A...

Treatment of patients with multivessel coronary artery disease is percutaneous intervention or bypass grafting according to current European and American guidelines. Depending on the anatomical complexity lesion, one methods chosen, usage a risk scale based SYNTAX study. However, Syntax score actively discussed as not an optimal scale, because unmatched modern clinical possibilities This articl...

this experiment was conducted to determine the effects of sodium bentonite litter supplement and stoking density on performance and litter quality using a total of 252 broiler chicks in completely randomized design with 6 treatments which were arranged factorially (3×2) and 4 replicates. experimental factors included: stocking density (14; low and 18; high /birds per m2) and three levels of sod...

Purpose To identify the structural integrity of the healing site after medial open wedge high tibial osteotomy (MOWHTO) in patients with a posterior root tear of the medial meniscus (PRTMM) and chondral lesion by second-look arthroscopy and to determine the clinical and radiological findings. Materials and Methods From August 2010 to June 2016, 52 consecutive patients underwent MOWHTO and art...

PURPOSE To compare six MR sequences (plain and gadolinium-enhanced fat suppressed T1-weighted spin echo, T2-weighted standard spin echo, fat-suppressed and non-fat-suppressed T2-weighted fast spin echo, and inversion-recovery T2-weighted fast spin echo) in their ability to detect, delineate, and characterize lesions of the parotid gland. METHODS Fifty-eight parotid gland lesions imaged on 47 ...
