Prior-Guided Attribution of Deep Neural Networks for Obstetrics and Gynecology.

Obstetrics and gynecology (OB/GYN) are areas of medicine that specialize in the care of women during pregnancy and childbirth and in the diagnosis of diseases of the female reproductive system. Ultrasound scanning has become ubiquitous in these branches of medicine, as breast or fetal ultrasound images can lead the sonographer and guide him through his diagnosis. However, ultrasound scan images require a lot of resources to annotate and are often unavailable for training purposes because of confidentiality reasons, which explains why deep learning methods are still not as commonly used to solve OB/GYN tasks as in other computer vision tasks.

Nuclear moments of indium isotopes reveal abrupt change at magic number 82.

In spite of the high-density and strongly correlated nature of the atomic nucleus, experimental and theoretical evidence suggests that around particular 'magic' numbers of nucleons, nuclear properties are governed by a single unpaired nucleon. A microscopic understanding of the extent of this behaviour and its evolution in neutron-rich nuclei remains an open question in nuclear physics. The indium isotopes are considered a textbook example of this phenomenon, in which the constancy of their electromagnetic properties indicated that a single unpaired proton hole can provide the identity of a complex many-nucleon system.

Contributions of Artificial Intelligence Reported in Obstetrics and Gynecology Journals: Systematic Review.

Background: The applications of artificial intelligence (AI) processes have grown significantly in all medical disciplines during the last decades. Two main types of AI have been applied in medicine: symbolic AI (eg, knowledge base and ontologies) and nonsymbolic AI (eg, machine learning and artificial neural networks). Consequently, AI has also been applied across most obstetrics and gynecology (OB/GYN) domains, including general obstetrics, gynecology surgery, fetal ultrasound, and assisted reproductive medicine, among others.

Influence of various water quality parameters on passive sampler accumulation kinetics of different metal valencies in freshwater.

Stabilized liquid membrane devices (SLMDs) have been used for passive integrative sampling of metals in freshwater systems. Field measurements of metal accumulation on SLMDs can provide a time-weighted average mass of labile metals over the deployment period. We exposed SLMDs in the laboratory to 0.

First Observation of ^{20}B and ^{21}B.

The most neutron-rich boron isotopes ^{20}B and ^{21}B have been observed for the first time following proton removal from ^{22}N and ^{22}C at energies around 230  MeV/nucleon. Both nuclei were found to exist as resonances which were detected through their decay into ^{19}B and one or two neutrons. Two-proton removal from ^{22}N populated a prominent resonancelike structure in ^{20}B at around 2.

Neutron Skin Effects in Mirror Energy Differences: The Case of ^{23}Mg-^{23}Na.

Energy differences between analogue states in the T=1/2 ^{23}Mg-^{23}Na mirror nuclei have been measured along the rotational yrast bands. This allows us to search for effects arising from isospin-symmetry-breaking interactions (ISB) and/or shape changes. Data are interpreted in the shell model framework following the method successfully applied to nuclei in the f_{7/2} shell.

Neutron Skins and Halo Orbits in the sd and pf Shells.

The strong dependence of Coulomb energies on nuclear radii makes it possible to extract the latter from calculations of the former. The resulting estimates of neutron skins indicate that two mechanisms are involved. The first one-isovector monopole polarizability-amounts to noting that when a particle is added to a system it drives the radii of neutrons and protons in different directions, tending to equalize the radii of both fluids independently of the neutron excess.

Constrained-path quantum Monte Carlo approach for the nuclear shell model.

A new quantum Monte Carlo approach is proposed to investigate low-lying states of nuclei within the shell model. The formalism relies on a variational symmetry-restored wave function to guide the underlying Brownian motion. Sign or phase problems that usually plague quantum Monte Carlo fermionic simulations are controlled by constraining stochastic paths through a fixed-node-like approximation.

Outcome at adulthood of the continuous spike-waves during slow sleep and Landau-Kleffner syndromes.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine the clinical, social, and/or professional and cognitive outcomes in adulthood of the continuous spike-waves during slow sleep (CSWS) and Landau-Kleffner syndromes, which are two rare epileptic syndromes occurring in children.

Methods: We enrolled seven young adults, five who had a CSWS syndrome, and two, a Landau-Kleffner syndrome in childhood. We evaluated their intellectual level as well as their oral and written language and executive functions.

Stereoselective determination of S-naproxen in tablets by capillary electrophoresis.

A capillary electrophoresis (CE) method was developed for the stereoselective determination of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), S-naproxen, in tablets. Several beta-cyclodextrin derivatives (CDs) were tested as chiral selectors, including sulfobutyl-beta-CD (SBCD), carboxymethyl-beta-CD (CMCD), dimethyl-beta-CD (DMCD) and trimethyl-beta-CD (TMCD), in a phosphoric acid/triethanolamine pH 3 buffer. Under these conditions, the analyte was mainly present in an uncharged form and therefore, the use a neutral CD (DMCD or TMCD) alone could not lead to enantiomeric separation.

[Angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia or Kimura's disease].

A rare affection of unknown etiology that is benign but frequently recurrent, Kimura's disease involves infiltration of the dermis and hypodermis usually of the face. Documented data exists describing clinical findings and results of histopathology that are analogous but are grouped under other names: angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia, pyogenic pseudogranuloma, atypical pyogenic granuloma. A case followed up for 13 years is reported.

[Adaptation of blood sugar regulation during muscular activity. Effects of training].

Our aim was to study the adaptation of energetic metabolism to muscular activity and the effects of training upon these adaptations. So we realized swimming and running tests on young healthy adults, selected in "trained" and "untrained". The effects of muscular activity were reflected by a raise of serum F.
