Background
Label fusion is a core step of Multi-Atlas Segmentation (MAS), which has a decisive effect on segmentation results. Although existed strategies using image intensity or image shape to fuse labels have got acceptable results, there is still necessity for further performance improvement. Here, we propose a new label fusion strategy, which considers the joint information of intensity and registration quality.Methods
The correlation between any two atlases is taken into account and the probability that two atlases both give wrong label is used to compute the fusion weights. The probability is jointly determined by the registration error and intensity similarity of the two corresponding atlas-target image pairs. The proposed label fusion algorithm is named Registration Error and Intensity Similarity based Label Fusion (REIS-LF).Results
Using 3D Magnetic Resonance (MR) images, the proposed REIS-LF algorithm is validated in brain structure segmentation including the hippocampus, the thalamus and the nuclei of the basal ganglia. The REIS-LF algorithm has higher segmentation accuracy and robustness than the baseline AQUIRC-W algorithm.Conclusions
Taking the registration quality, the inter-atlas correlations and intensity differences into account in label fusion benefits to improve the object segmentation accuracy and robustness. 相似文献2.
Objective
Recently, Electroencephalogram (EEG) shows potential in the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease and other dementia. We aim to investigate whether EEG and selected cognitive biomarkers can classify mild cognitive impairment (MCI), dementia and healthy subjects using support vector machine classifier in Indian cohort.Methods
Eight EEG biomarkers, power spectral density, skewness, kurtosis, spectral skewness, spectral kurtosis, spectral crest factor, spectral entropy (SE), fractal dimension (FD) were analyzed from 44 subjects in four conditions; eye-open, eye-close, finger tapping test (FTT) and continuous performance test (CPT). FFT and CPT are used to measure motor speed and sustained attention as these cognitive biomarkers are free from the educational barrier.Results
We achieved very good accuracy for each event from 73.4% to 89.8% for three binary classes. We investigated that FTT (84% accuracy), CPT (88% accuracy) were the most efficient events to diagnose MCI from dementia. MCI from control successfully diagnosed with 89.8% accuracy in FTT, 73.4% accuracy in CPT and 84.1% accuracy in eye open resting state. Even though cognitive biomarkers were also adequately diagnosed MCI from other groups.Conclusions
Our classifier findings are consistent with the utmost evidence. Yet, our results are promising and especially newfangled in the case of FTT and CPT from the prior studies. We developed an experimental protocol and proposed a novel technique to classify MCI with efficient biomarkers. 相似文献3.

Purpose
Explore the effect of Baihe Dihuang powder on chronic stress depression rat models.Methods
Chronic stress depression rat models were established with different stimuli for 21?days. At the same time, the drug was administered for 21 consecutive days. The animals were weighed once a week after the start of the formal experiment. On the second day after the end of drug administration, conduct sugar water consumption test and open-filed box experiment, and conduct behavioral observation; At the end of behavioral testing, blood was taken from the eyeball and plasma was separated to measure MDA level and erythrocyte SOD activity; Take brain for homogenate, then measure the contents of 5-HT, NE and DA in brain tissue homogenate; Take the thymus and spleen, stained with 10% formalin fixation, embedding and HE staining, then use microscope to observe the histopathological changes.Results
Chronic stress depression rats model replicated successfully. Each group of given drugs could increase the weight, the consumption of sugar water, and improve the behavioral score, increase erythrocytes SOD activity and decrease MDA level of plasma, increase the content of 5-HT, NE and DA of brain homogenate, and improve the pathological changes of thymus and spleen of chronic stress depression model animals.Conclusion
Chronic stress depression rat model replicates successfully. Baihe Dihuang powder can interfere chronic stress depression rats model through different action pathways. 相似文献4.

Objective
The current study proposes an automated machine learning approach for the quantification of cells in cell death pathways according to DNA fragmentation.Methods
A total of 17 images of kidney histological slide samples from male Wistar rats were used. The slides were photographed using an Axio Zeiss Vert.A1 microscope with a 40x objective lens coupled with an Axio Cam MRC Zeiss camera and Zen 2012 software. The images were analyzed using CellProfiler (version 2.1.1) and CellProfiler Analyst open-source software.Results
Out of the 10,378 objects, 4970 (47,9%) were identified as TUNEL positive, and 5408 (52,1%) were identified as TUNEL negative. On average, the sensitivity and specificity values of the machine learning approach were 0.80 and 0.77, respectively.Conclusion
Image cytometry provides a quantitative analytical alternative to the more traditional qualitative methods more commonly used in studies. 相似文献5.
Background
Epileptic seizures are unpredictable in nature and its quick detection is important for immediate treatment of patients. In last few decades researchers have proposed different algorithms for onset and offset detection of seizure using Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals.Methods
In this paper, a combined approach for onset and offset detection is proposed using Triadic wavelet decomposition based features. Standard deviation, variance and higher order moments, extracted as significant features to represent different EEG activities.Classification between seizure and non-seizure EEG was carried out using linear discriminant analysis (LDA) and k-nearest neighbour (KNN) classifiers. The method was tested using two benchmark EEG datasets in the field of seizure detection.CHBMIT EEG dataset was used for evaluating the performance of proposed seizure onset and offset detection method.Further for testing the robustness of the algorithm, the effect of the signal-to-noise ratio on the detection accuracy has been also investigated using Bonn University EEG dataset.Results
The seizure onset and offset detection method yielded classification accuracy, specificity and sensitivity of 99.45%, 99.62% and 98.36% respectively with 6.3 s onset and ?1.17 s offset latency using KNN classifier.The seizure detection method using Bonn University EEG dataset got classification accuracy of 92% when SNR = 5 dB, 94% when SNR = 10 dB, and 96% when SNR = 20 dB, while it also yielded 96% accuracy for noiseless EEG.Conclusion
The present study focuses on detection of seizure onset and offset rather than only seizure detection. The major contribution of this work is that the novel triadic wavelet transform based method is developed for the analysis of EEG signals. The results show improvement over other existing dyadic wavelet based Triadic techniques. 相似文献6.
Objective
A new method was presented to prepare clinical-grade human adipose-derived stromal stem cells (ASCs) and its safety in vitro, such as biological characteristics and genetic features alteration were investigated.Methods
The morphology of the ASCs which were cultured in vitro using serum-free medium was observed. Cell cycle and CD markers profile were tested by flow cytometry, while karyotype was analyzed by the chromosome G-banding technology. Growth factors expression was tested by ELISA and tumor-related genes were analyzed by the real-time PCR, respectively.Results
ASCs were adult stem cells with spindle shape. The proliferation ratio of ASCs began to slow down after 10 passages, and was significant after 15 passages. Cell cycle analysis revealed that the percentage of G2 phase and S phase cells was stable. There was no obvious missing, translocation or dislocation in terms of karyotype. Expression level of tumor relevant genes and cytokines at different passages had no significant difference.Conclusions
The clinical-grade ASCs prepared with this new method, less than ten passages, was safe for clinical trials. 相似文献7.

Background
Diabetes mellitus represents one of the disorders in the metabolism that affects all body systems including CNS. Cerebrolysin contains many neurotrophic factors, and many studies reported that it can be used treatment of many neurological disorders.Aim of the work
The aim of the current study was to study the potential neuroprotective effect of cerebrolysin on the cerebellum of diabetic rat.Materials and methods
Sprague Dawley male rats were divided randomly into four groups: control, cerebrolysin (Cbl), diabetes and diabetes treated with Cbl groups. Induction of diabetes was performed by intraperitoneal injection of 60 mg/kg streptozotocin once. Eight weeks later, the rats were anaesthetized, sacrificed and the cerebellum was removed. Cerebellum oxidative stress markers were analysis. Cerebellar tissue was subjected to histolopathological examination and immune-histological assessment of GFAP and Synaptophysin.Results
As compared to the control group, diabetes caused degenerative changes in the cerebellum with significant elevation of MDA and decrease of SOD levels and gliosis confirmed by increase the GFAP expression area fraction. Diabetes increased significantly the optical density of synaptophysin expression with increase in its area fraction in the granular layer. Although Cbl treatment succeeded in minimizing the changes in the oxidative stress markers, it had no effect on pathological changes of the diabetic cerebellum. Cerebrolysin treatment of diabetic rats decreased the area fraction of GFAP positive immunoreactivity and had no effect on synaptophysin expression.Conclusion
Cerebrolysin can potentially protect against diabetes induced changes in the cerebellum through minimizing the oxidative stress and improving the gliosis. 相似文献8.

Background
We evaluated the effect of 45 days of rosuvastatin or pravastatin treatment on the distribution of HDL subfractions in HIV-1-infected individuals receiving boosted protease inhibitors (PIs) with cardiovascular risk.Methods
The distribution of HDL subclasses by gradient gel electrophoresis was blindly assessed in 74 HIV-1-infected individuals receiving boosted PIs at baseline and at day 45 of statin treatment, and compared with the distribution obtained in 63 healthy normolipidemic individuals taken as controls.Results
No significant modification appeared in HDL distribution between the two arms of statins for the HIV-1-infected individuals. Nevertheless, when compared to controls, HDL subfractions showed a significantly lower HDL2b proportion and significantly higher proportions of HDL2a and HDL3b (P < 0.001).Conclusion
No difference was observed in HDL distribution between pravastatin and rosuvastatin after 45 days treatment, in HIV-1-infected individuals under PIs. Nevertheless, when compared to healthy normolipidemic subjects, HDL distribution is clearly different, with a distribution in HIV-infected individuals under PIs associated with an increased cardiovascular risk. 相似文献9.

Objective
To determine the effect of laser needle-knife on PI-3K, AKT and VEGF mRNA expression of vertebral arteries in a rabbit model of cervical spondylotic arteriopathy (CSA) and the mechanism of action involved.Methods
Forty healthy general-grade rabbits were divided into a normal control group, model group, acupuncture group, and laser needle-knife group (n?=?10 rabbits per group), and the CSA rabbit model was established in all but groups but the normal control group. CSA model rabbits in the acupuncture group were treated by acupuncture at the Fengchi (GB 20) and Cervical Jiaji (EX-B 2) points, whereas rabbits in the laser needle-knife group were treated with laser needle-knife targeting the Jiaji points near the C5 spinous process. Rabbits in the normal control and model groups were fixed using similar methods. Behavioral characteristics of all rabbits were evaluated before and after treatment. Peak systolic velocity (PSV) of the right carotid and vertebral arteries in each group were examined using beside B ultrasound, and PI-3K, AKT, VEGF mRNA expression in vertebral arteries were determined by real-time PCR.Results
The behavioral signs of rabbits were improved after treatment in both the acupuncture and laser needle-knife groups. In comparison with control group, PSV of right carotid arteries in acupuncture group and laser needle-knife group were enhanced significantly (P?<?0.05 and P?<?0.01), PSV of right vertebral arteries in acupuncture group and laser needle-knife group were enhanced significantly too (P?<?0.01 and P?<?0.05). PI-3K mRNA expression in laser needle-knife and acupuncture group was significantly higher than that in control group (P?<?0.01, P?<?0.05). AKT mRNA expression in laser needle-knife and acupuncture group was significantly higher than that in control group (P?<?0.01). VEGF mRNA expression in laser needle-knife and acupuncture group was significantly higher than that in control group too (P?<?0.01, P?<?0.05). No significant differences were found in PI-3K, AKT and VEGF mRNA expression levels among acupuncture and laser needle-knife groups (P?>?0.05).Conclusion
Laser needle-knife could effectively intervene the mRNA expression of PI-3K, AKT and VEGF, this may be one of the mechanisms of the effect of laser needle-knife in treating CSA in rabbits. 相似文献10.

Background
The prognostic significance of paced QRS complex morphology on surface ECG remains unclear. This study aimed to assess long-term outcomes associated with variations in the paced QRS complex.Methods
Adult patients who underwent dual-chamber pacemaker implantation with 20% or more ventricular pacing and a 12-lead ECG showing a paced complex were included. The paced QRS was analyzed in leads I and aVL. Long-term clinical and echocardiographic outcomes were compared at 5 years.Results
The study included 844 patients (43.1% female; age 75.0?±?12.1). Patients with a longer paced QRS (pQRS) duration in lead I had a lower rate of atrial fibrillation (HR 0.80; p?=?0.03) and higher rate of systolic dysfunction (HR 1.17; p?<?0.001). Total pacing complex (TPC) duration was linked to higher rates of ICD implantation (HR 1.18; p?=?0.04) and systolic dysfunction (HR 1.22, p?<?0.001). Longer paced intrinsicoid deflection (pID) was associated with less atrial fibrillation (HR 0.75; p?=?0.01), more systolic dysfunction (HR 1.17; p?<?0.001), ICD implantation (HR 1.23; p?=?0.04), and CRT upgrade (HR 1.23; p?=?0.03). Exceeding thresholds for TPC, pQRS, and pID of 170, 146, and 112?ms in lead I, respectively, was associated with a substantial increase in systolic dysfunction over 5 years (p?<?0.001).Conclusions
Longer durations of all tested parameters in lead I were associated with increased rates of left ventricular systolic dysfunction. ICD implantation and CRT upgrade were also linked to increased TPC and pID durations. Paradoxically, patients with longer pID and pQRS had less incident atrial fibrillation. 相似文献11.
Background
Pain is an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience followed by anxiety, depression, and frustration. Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS) as an optical technique identifies the brain functional networks by investigating connectivity between functionally linked of different anatomical regions in response to pain stimulation.Methods
In this research, fNIRS was performed in order to study the difference in effective functional connectivity of the brain prefrontal cortex between the two modes of pain and rest based on the dynamic causal modeling (DCM) method. Effective functional connectivity changes in the prefrontal cortex between pain and rest states were calculated using DCM approach to investigate (1) areas known for pain sensation and (2) to analyze inter-network functional connectivity strength (FCS) by selecting several brain functional networks based on the analysis findings. All analyses were performed using toolboxes SPM-fNIRS and SPM8, Matlab software.Results
Regional hemodynamics changes caused deoxyhemoglobin concentration to decrease in the prefrontal cortex of both hemispheres, particularly on the right side. We found a simultaneous increase in the concentration of oxyhemoglobin in the prefrontal cortex of the left hemisphere in comparison to the right hemisphere, that there was a trend toward reduction in oxyhemoglobin concentration. The results indicate that during the cold pain stimulation, the connectivities between prefrontal cortex regions were significantly changed. Specifically, a significantly consistent increase in the RPFC to MPFC connectivity was found while a significant consistent decrease was observed in the both MPFC to LPFC and LPFC to MPFC connectivities.Conclusion
This study contributes to the pain research field to identify the directionality and causality of neuronal connections in the prefrontal cortex by applying DCM to fNIRS data. The results suggest that the proposed method infers directional interactions between hidden neuronal states in the brain under neuronal dynamic conditions based on optical density changes measurement. 相似文献12.

Background
The glycerophospholipids, synthesised from diacylglycerol (DAG), are one of the main lipid components of cell membranes. The lipid profile is an optimised feature associated with animal longevity. In this context, the hypothesis is presented that the DAG biosynthesis rate, and thus, the glycerophospholipids content, is related to animal longevity.Material and methods
A plasma lipidomic analysis was performed based on the mass spectrometry of 11 mammalian species with a maximum longevity ranging from 3.5 to 120 years. Lipid identification was based on exact mass, retention time, and isotopic distribution. ANOVA test was applied to differentiate the lipids between animal species. The relationship between these lipids and longevity was carried out with a Spearman correlation. Data was analysed using SPSS and MetaboAnalyst.Results
Among the 1,061 different lipid molecular species found between species, 47 were defined as DAG. Interestingly, 14 of them showed a negative correlation with mammalian maximum longevity. Multivariate statistics revealed that 14 DAGs were enough to define mammalian species and their maximum longevity.Conclusions
Data suggest that long-lived mammalian species have a lower rate of glycerophospholipids synthesis through the de novo pathway, possibly associated with a lower rate of membrane lipid exchange, which in turn is related to lower energy expenditure. 相似文献13.

Background
Candida parapsilosis may acquire resistance to echinocandins, a fact that prompts the search for new therapeutic options.Aims
The present study aimed to evaluate the in vitro activity of antifungal agents, alone and in combination, against four groups of C. parapsilosis strains: (1) echinocandin-susceptible (ES) clinical isolates (MIC ≤ 2 μg/ml), (2) anidulafungin-resistant strains (MIC ≥ 8 μg/ml), (3) caspofungin-resistant strains (MIC ≥ 8 μg/ml), and (4) micafungin-resistant strains (MIC ≥ 8 μg/ml).Methods
Antifungal interactions were evaluated by a checkerboard micro-dilution method. The determination of the MIC to each drug for every isolate according to the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute documents M27 (2017) and M60 (2017) was also done.Results
The echinocandins-resistant (ER) strains showed higher MICs to the tested antifungals than the ES strains, except for amphotericin B, for which the ER groups remained susceptible.Conclusions
Most combinations showed indifferent interactions. The use of monotherapy still seems to be the best option. As resistance to echinocandins is an emergent phenomenon, further studies are required to provide clearer information on the susceptibility differences between strains to these antifungal agents. 相似文献15.

Background
Along with an ageing population, a higher incidence of chronic diseases leads to increasingly complex health profiles. The relationship between survival, dependence, and social and demographic trends affecting caregiving, has led to an increase in the negative consequences associated with care provision. In this context, an assessment needs to be made on the impact that caregiving has on the well-being of the caregivers. The main aim of this article is to study the factors that determine the Quality of Life (QoL) of those who provide informal care to people suffering from Alzheimer's disease (AD).Methods
A total of 175 caregivers of people with AD were recruited through the Galician Association for Relatives with Alzheimer. These caregivers completed a questionnaire (EQ-5D) that gathered sociodemographic and health variables, QoL, and care characteristics. Multiple regression models were calculated to explain the QoL of the caregivers.Results
Of the five dimensions that the EQ-5D used to describe health, anxiety/depression was the one that concerned the largest percentage of caregivers who declared the highest levels of severity. The key variables for explaining QoL are those related to caregiver health status, periods of rest during caregiving, and the presence of a second caregiver.Conclusions
Maintaining a minimal QoL among the caregivers not only has repercussions on the caregivers themselves, but also has an impact on those receiving care and the entire health system, which would have to find replacements for those informal caregivers. 相似文献17.

Objective
Explore the possible protective effect of Sargentodoxa cuneata total phenolic acids on cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury rats.Methods
Focal cerebral ischemia reperfusion rats model were established by linear thrombus. Nimodipine group, Naoluotong group, the high, middle and low dose of Sargentodoxa cuneata total phenolic acids groups were given related drugs via intragastric administration before operation for seven days, once a day. At the same time sham operation group, and ischemia reperfusion group were given the same volume of physiological saline. One hour after the last administration, establish focal cerebral ischemia- reperfusion model in rats by thread method, and the thread was taken out after 2?h ischemia to achieve cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury in rats. After reperfusion for 24?h, the rats were given neurologic deficit score. The brain tissue was taken to measure the levels of IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α, Bcl-2, Bax, Casp-3 and ICAM-1; HE staining observed histopathological changes in the hippocampus and cortical areas of the brain; Immunohistochemistry was used to observe the expression of NGF and NF-KBp65.Result
Focal cerebral ischemia reperfusion rats model was copyed successed. Compared with model group, each dose group of Sargentodoxa cuneata total phenolic acids could decreased the neurologic deficit score (P?<?0.05 or P?<?0.01), decreased the levels of IL-6, IL-1β, ICAM-1, TNF-α, Bax and Caspase-3 in brain tissue (P?<?0.05 or P?<?0.01), increased the levels of IL-10, Bcl-2, NGF in brain tissue (P?<?0.05 or P?<?0.01), decreased the express of NF-KBp65 in brain (P?<?0.05 or P?<?0.01).Conclusion
Sargentodoxa cuneata total phenolic acids can improve focal cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury rats tissue inflammation, apoptosis pathway, increase nutrition factor to protect the neurons, reduce the apoptosis of nerve cells, activate brain cells self-protect, improve the histopathological changes in the hippocampus and cortical areas of the brain, reduce cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury. 相似文献18.

Background and aims
It has been previously verified that mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) have a good therapeutic effect on severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) and the potential for regeneration of damaged pancreatic tissue, but the exact molecular mechanism remains unclear. In this study, we demonstrated the therapeutic effect of bone morrow MSCs (BMSCs) on SAP, probably by targeting heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1).Methods
Six hours after SAP induction, either phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) or BMSCs were transfused into the caudal vein of rats, zinc protoporphyrin (ZnPP) was administered intraperitoneally. Pancreatic pathological scoring, serum levels of amylase and inflammatory factors, as well as levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), malondialdehyde (MDA) and myeloperoxidase (MPO), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) activity in the pancreas were evaluated.Results
Our data showed that BMSCs significantly reduce inflammation and oxidative stress, reduce apoptosis and promote angiogenesis of damaged pancreas. Moreover, BMSCs increased the level of HO-1 in the serum and pancreatic tissue in rats with SAP. In addition, the protective effect of BMSCs was partially neutralized by the HO-1 activity inhibitor ZnPP, suggesting a key role of HO-1 in the therapeutic effect of BMSCs on SAP.Conclusions
BMSCs ameliorated SAP, probably by inducing expression of HO-1, which can exert anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant effects, reduce apoptosis and promote angiogenesis. 相似文献20.
