Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to create a visual nomogram model to help identify patients with basilar artery occlusion (BAO) who are at high risk of having futile recanalization after endovascular thrombectomy (EVT).
  • Researchers analyzed data from 84 BAO patients treated with EVT, finding that 50% experienced futile recanalization.
  • The resulting nomogram model demonstrated strong predictive capability, with a high accuracy score (AUC of 0.866) and is available online for clinicians to use in patient assessment.

Limited special education and related services are available for children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in Macau, especially those who are educated in general education classrooms. No intervention study has been conducted on these children. This study was conducted to explore the relationship between a board game play intervention and board game play behaviors and social communication of children with ASD educated in general education classrooms in Macau.

Article Synopsis
  • * Researchers evaluated five different machine learning models and found similar predictive performance among them, significantly outperforming existing clinical prediction tools like the HIAT, THRIVE score, and NADE nomogram.
  • * Out of 1,735 AIS patients studied, 31.2% experienced unfavorable outcomes, and incorporating specific patient data helped improve prediction accuracy, particularly with the Random Forest Classifier (RFC) model.

The purpose of this study is to examine the psychometric properties of an instrument to measure word problem solving skills in mathematics related to speed with 706 sixth grade Chinese and Singaporean students. Rasch measurement models were applied to examine the reliability, unidimensionality, rating scale functioning, item difficulty, and person difficulty. The differential item functioning (DIF) analysis was also performed to examine the differences in item difficulty estimates between Chinese and Singaporean students.

Objectives: Primary retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells have a limited capacity to re-establish epithelial morphology and to maintain native RPE function in vitro, and all commercially available RPE cell lines have drawbacks of morphology or function; therefore, the establishment of new RPE cell lines with typical characteristics of RPE would be helpful in further understanding of their physiological and pathological mechanisms. Here, we firstly report a new spontaneously generated RPE line, fhRPE-13A, from a 13-week aborted foetus. We aimed to investigate its availability as a RPE model.
