Abstract Background The purpose of this study was to implement and evaluate a deep learning (DL) approach for automatically detecting shallow anterior chamber depth (ACD) from two-dimensional (2D) overview segment photographs. Methods We trained DL model using dataset photographs collected Shanghai Aier Eye Hospital June 2018 December 2019. A Pentacam HR system used capture 2D eye image measure...

Abstract Background We aimed to investigate whether maternal chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection affects preterm birth (PTB) in pregnant women. Methods retrospectively analyzed HBV-infected and non-infected women attending antenatal care at Fujian Maternity Child Health Hospital, Fuzhou, China between January 1, 2016 December 31, 2018. Participants were divided into HBV ( n = 1302) contro...

The aim this study was to evaluate management vaccines in clinical practice IBD from perspective physicians and patients. Methods An online anonymous survey sent 8000 a national patient association (ACCU-Spain) 1000 members Spanish Working Grou...

Hydroxyl radical (•OH) scavenging demand can be an indicator that represents the water quality characteristics of raw water. It is one key parameters predicting UV/H2O2 system performance and affects operating parameters. Based on •OH demand, we developed a model predictive control strategy to meet target compound removal efficiency energy consumption simultaneously. Selected pharmaceutically a...

Abstract Deep low-frequency (DLF) earthquakes have occurred at depths of 10–30 km in the Kirishima volcanic complex, Japan. Here, we investigate DLF earthquake activity that was associated with 2018 eruptions, compare these those 2011 and provide inferences on magmatic fluid ascension during two eruptions. We apply a new matched-filter method to continuous waveform data from 2017–2018 period co...
