Abstract In the last 20 years, the diagnosis of pancreatitis has become more frequent as a result of improved diagnostic modalities such as abdominal ultrasound examination, advanced imaging, and immunoassays for the m...

Abstract Objective To assess and compare the sensitivity and specificity of ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging in the diagnosis of placenta accreta in patients with placenta previa. Methods This retrospec...

Histological diagnosis and grading of acute renal allograft rejection does not always correlate with the clinical course and response to treatment. This may be due to inadequate sampling. But lack of objectivity in histo...

A 13-year-old boy was admitted with enuresis. He had no history of urinary tract infection, daytime incontinence or fecal incontinence. Previously performed ultrasound had revealed bilateral hydroureteronephrosis and tra...

Abstract Background A panel of IgA‐based serologic assays might aid in the diagnosis of chronic enteropathy (CE) in dogs, a syndrome encompassing conditions such as food‐responsive enteropathy, immunosuppressant‐re...

"A data-driven methodology that includes the unfalsified control concept in the framework of fault diagnosis and isolation (FDI) and fault-tolerant control (FTC) is presented. The selection of the appropriate controller ...

Tuberculosis (TB) continues to be one of the foremost public health issues in the world, and remains the second most salient communicable cause of death after COVID-19. In 2022, TB accounted for 10.6 million new infectio...

Background Depression is a common comorbidity in Parkinson’s disease (PD) and Lewy body dementia (LBD). However, studies examining the rate of incident depression in the period preceding and following the diagnosis of ...

Objetivos: comparar o desempenho das amostras do canal cervical e fundo de saco vaginal para o exame colpocitológico no diagnóstico da neoplasia do colo uterino. Métodos: foram constituídos três grupos seqüenciais:...

Purpose: Dental caries is one of the most prevalent oral diseases worldwide, and predicting Early Enamel Caries (EEC) and Advanced Enamel Caries (AEC) in intraoral imaging is a significant clinical research challenge. To...

This study presents PrimDx, a diagnostic test that applies machine learning (ML) to whole blood transcriptomic data to improve early detection and diagnosis of primary immunodeficiency (PID). Delays in PID diagnosis are ...

Objective Unlike survival measures, life expectancy readily illustrates the burden of cancer on society and the average impact on individuals diagnosed with cancer. Cancer stage at diagnosis is a key prognostic factor an...

Abstract Objective: Recent observations support the hypothesis that an imbalance between angiogenic factors has a fundamental role in the pathogenesis of pre-eclampsia and is responsible for the clinical manifestations ...

Abstract Background Equine protozoal myeloencephalitis (EPM) caused by Sarcocystis neurona remains an antemortem diagnostic challenge in some horses. Recent work suggested the use of real‐time PCR (rtPCR) on cerebrospi...

Abstract Non-invasive preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidies (niPGT-A) aiming to assess cell-free embryonic DNA in spent culturemedia is promising, especially because it might overcome the diminished rates of i...

Diagnosis of specific antibody deficiency (SAD) relies on serotype-specific IgG responses to PPSV23; however, IgG titers do not measure opsonophagocytic function and may misclassify patients due to pre-vaccine titers, va...

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted TB diagnosis due to overlapping symptoms, healthcare system strains, and changes in healthcare seeking behaviors. Our study aimed to examine factors contributing to delayed TB ...

Abstract Background Primary care is increasingly tasked with early detection, diagnosis, and management of dementia. Despite policy initiatives, education investments, and development of diagnostic and care pathways in A...

Power transformers are critical components of power systems, and their safe and reliable operation is essential for both industrial and residential applications. Real-time condition monitoring and early fault detection a...

This work primarily focuses on diagnosis of heart disease before explicit visit to the expert doctor. Machine learning based systems have been found useful in medical diagnosis applications because of their ability to le...

Interferonopathies are rare autoinflammatory disorders driven by a constitutive upregulation of the type I interferon (IFN-I) pathway, leading to chronic activation of this cytokine. Despite advances, direct IFN-I measur...

Abstract Background Asthma in horses is associated with nonspecific respiratory clinical signs and may be manifested only as exercise intolerance. Its diagnosis relies on bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) cytology in t...
