Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to identify prognostic factors from neck dissections in patients with regional recurrent or residual head and neck cancer, focusing on continuous variables related to pathologic lymph nodes.
- Researchers analyzed data from 184 patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinomas, evaluating lymph node density (LND) and log odds of positive lymph nodes (LODDS) to estimate survival outcomes.
- Findings revealed that higher LND (≥ 0.14) is significantly associated with poorer survival outcomes, indicating it as a negative prognostic factor after salvage neck dissection.
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to investigate the potential of deep learning (DL) techniques to enhance the image quality of low-field knee MR images, with the ultimate goal of approximating the standards of high-field knee MR imaging.
Methods: We analyzed knee MR images collected from 45 patients with knee disorders and six normal subjects using a 3T MR scanner and those collected from 25 patients with knee disorders using a 0.4T MR scanner.
Eight patients underwent coronary artery bypass grafting( CABG) by left thoracotomy approach to the left coronary artery territory after CABG. The left subclavian artery was selected as an inflow anastomosis site, and the greater saphenous vein was used as a graft. The average operative time was 187 minutes, and the hospital stay was 12.

- The study analyzed the effectiveness of three antipsychotic medications—aripiprazole, blonanserin, and paliperidone—over a 104-week period for patients with schizophrenia as part of the Japan Useful Medication Program for Schizophrenia (JUMPs).
- A total of 251 patients were treated, with similar treatment discontinuation rates across all medications, and positive improvements in quality of life and symptom scores were noted over time.
- The findings indicate that while treatment results were comparable, continuing with these medications can lead to improved remission rates and overall quality of life for patients.
Aims/introduction: Coefficient of variation (CV) is an indicator for glucose variability in continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), and the target threshold of %CV in type 1 diabetes is proposed to be ≤36%. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical significance of CV in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes.
Materials And Methods: Participants included 66 children with type 1 diabetes.
