We describe a system for identifying dog emotions based on dogs' facial expressions and body posture.

Given the improvement in technology in the contemporary era, we hypothesized that there is no difference in the development of or worsening of existing coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients with BC receiving left versus right-sided radiation.
Methods And Materials: For the meta-analysis portion of our study, we searched PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus and included studies from January 1999 to September 2022.
Left-atrial septal pouch (LASP) is a newly described anatomical variant caused by incomplete fusion of the septa primum and secundum. This case visualizes LASP as a potential nidus for blood stasis and cardiac embolism and highlights the need for consideration of TEE in the work up of cryptogenic stroke.

We hypothesize that high SDOH scores correlate with uncontrolled HTN in hypertensive cancer patients. In our prospective study, patients completed the Protocol for Responding to & Assessing Patients' Assets, Risks & Experiences questionnaire.
