Introduction: It is suggested that birth by elective cesarean section (CS) reduces the risk of birth-related infant mortality and injury. Other studies suggest an increased risk of somatic immune-related diseases among children born by CS such as asthma, type 1 diabetes, and inflammatory bowel disease. The WHO Statement on Cesarean Section Rates 2015 described an increase in CS globally.

Article Synopsis
  • Radiogenomics connects biomedical imaging with genetic information to better understand diseases, particularly in cancer patients.
  • This review examined studies that used genetics to validate radiomics models, analyzing research published up to January 2022 for quality and relevance.
  • The findings highlighted 45 studies, mostly recent, focused on prognosis and using various genetic methods, indicating a significant link between imaging features and genetic expression in cancer treatment and assessment.

Introduction: Robust and reliable attenuation correction (AC) is a prerequisite for accurate quantification of activity concentration. In combined PET/MRI, AC is challenged by the lack of bone signal in the MRI from which the AC maps has to be derived. Deep learning-based image-to-image translation networks present itself as an optimal solution for MRI-derived AC (MR-AC).

Objectives: Preterm birth can affect cognition, but other factors including parental education and intelligence may also play a role, but few studies have adjusted for these potential confounders. We aimed to assess the impact of gestational age (GA), late preterm birth (34 to <37 weeks GA) and very to moderately preterm birth (<34 weeks GA) on intelligence, attention and executive function in a population of Danish children aged 5 years.

Design: Population-based prospective cohort study.
