RADIANCE: Reliable and interpretable depression detection from speech using transformer.

Depression is a common but severe mental disorder that adversely impacts the ability of an individual to function normally in their day-to-day life. A majority of depressed individuals remain undiagnosed due to factors such as social stigma and a shortage of healthcare professionals. Consequently, several Machine Learning and Deep Learning (DL) models based on speech have been proposed for automatic depression detection, with the latter generally outperforming the former.

Trustworthy Medical Image Segmentation with improved performance for in-distribution samples.

Despite the enormous achievements of Deep Learning (DL) based models, their non-transparent nature led to restricted applicability and distrusted predictions. Such predictions emerge from erroneous In-Distribution (ID) and Out-Of-Distribution (OOD) samples, which results in disastrous effects in the medical domain, specifically in Medical Image Segmentation (MIS). To mitigate such effects, several existing works accomplish OOD sample detection; however, the trustworthiness issues from ID samples still require thorough investigation.

Detection of Human PapillomaVirus and its Association with Potentially Malignant Disorders and Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma: A Retrospective Study.

Aim: This study was carried out with the objective of recognizing the involvement of human papillomavirus (HPV) in conditions of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and oral potentially malignant conditions and lesions.

Materials And Methods: OSCC samples from thirty patients were collected and thirty paraffin-embedded, oral premalignant specimens were collected. It was decided to use as a negative control samples gingiva from healthy individuals who had no prior history of oral proliferative leukoplakia or OSCC.

Pleomorphic adenoma of the upper lip.

This case report describes a rare and unusual lesion found in a 33-year-old male, which was diagnosed as pleomorphic adenoma of the minor salivary glands in the upper lip. The tumor was a circumscribed, large firm mass, about 3 cm in diameter, almost obstructing the nares and characterized by slow growth. Complete excision was performed and the histopathologic analysis showed pleomorphic adenoma.

Unusually large sialolith of Wharton's duct.

The formation of calcific concretions in the salivary duct or glands is a common disorder, especially in the submandibular glands. Most of the salivary calculi are small in size, in contrast to those that reach several centimeters, which are reported as megaliths or giant calculi in the literature. They may occur in any of the salivary gland ducts but are most common in Wharton's duct and the submandibular gland.

Efficacy of Iliac Crest vs. Medpor in Orbital Floor Reconstruction.

Aim: The present study is to compare the effectiveness of iliac crest graft and medpor implant, for repairing traumatic orbital floor defects.

Materials And Methods: A total of 20 patients were included in the study. Autogenous iliac crest graft and medpor implant was used in 10 patients of the each group.

Laparoscopic nephroplication and nephropexy as an adjunct to pyeloplasty in UPJO with giant hydronephrosis.

Giant hydronephrosis due to uretero-pelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) is rare and usually the treatment is nephrectomy. When renal salvage is required, reconstruction of the UPJ alone is usually inadequate to improve drainage from the pelvicalyceal system. Various open surgical techniques have been described to improve gravity-assisted drainage from the giant hydronephrotic kidney.
