Pneumonia detection on chest X-rays from Xception-based transfer learning and logistic regression.

Pneumonia is a dangerous disease that kills millions of children and elderly patients worldwide every year. The detection of pneumonia from a chest x-ray is perpetrated by expert radiologists. The chest x-ray is cheaper and is most often used to diagnose pneumonia.

Analyzing influence of COVID-19 on crypto & financial markets and sentiment analysis using deep ensemble model.

COVID-19 affected the world's economy severely and increased the inflation rate in both developed and developing countries. COVID-19 also affected the financial markets and crypto markets significantly, however, some crypto markets flourished and touched their peak during the pandemic era. This study performs an analysis of the impact of COVID-19 on public opinion and sentiments regarding the financial markets and crypto markets.

A confocal laser scanning microscopic evaluation of nonthermal atmospheric plasma on the dentinal tubule penetration of bioceramic and epoxy resin-based root canal sealers.

Aim: Using confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM), the current study assessed the impact of nonthermal atmospheric plasma (NTAP) on the dentinal tubule penetration of bioceramic and epoxy resin-based root canal sealers (CLSM).

Materials And Methods: Forty human mandibular premolar teeth with a single root that had just undergone extraction were chosen and biomechanical preparation of root canals was done with ProTaper Gold rotary Nickel-titanium instruments. Samples were divided into four groups ( = 10).

Effect of nonthermal atmospheric plasma on bond strength of composite resin using total-etch and self-etch adhesive systems.

Aim: The aim of this study was to assess the impact of nonthermal atmospheric plasma (NTAP) on the bond strength of composite resin following plasma application at different steps of dentin bonding in total-etch and self-etch adhesive systems.

Materials And Methods: Ninety extracted third molars were taken, and the occlusal surfaces were removed until the exposure of the dentin. Samples were distributed into two main groups: Group T: total-etch adhesive system and Group S: self-etch adhesive system.

Characterization of Biomarkers in Colorectal Cancer Liver Metastases as a Prognostic Tool.

Background: Unfortunately, the majority of patients with colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRCLM) experience disease recurrence following hepatic surgery. The key challenge is therefore optimal patient selection, which currently relies on anatomical and clinical parameters. Exploring a potential molecular signature may be predictive for seeing a clinical benefit from CRCLM resection.
