Article Synopsis
  • Major depressive disorder (MDD) affects a significant portion of the population and many do not respond to typical antidepressants, suggesting biological factors at play, particularly involving the gut-brain connection.
  • Chronic stress negatively impacts the intestinal barrier in mice, affecting gene expression related to tight junctions and altering gut microbiota, with variations observed between sexes.
  • This study highlights how stress influences gut health, potentially linking disruptions in the intestinal barrier to depression mechanisms, and shows parallels in blood samples from women diagnosed with MDD.

Purpose: Bone identification and segmentation in X-ray images are crucial in orthopedics for the automation of clinical procedures, but it often involves some manual operations. In this work, using a modified SegNet neural network, we automatically identify and segment lower limb bone structures on radiographs presenting various fields of view and different patient orientations.

Methods: A wide contextual neural network architecture is proposed to perform a high-quality pixel-wise semantic segmentation on X-ray images presenting structures with a similar appearance and strong superposition.
