Safety and Efficacy of DPMAS in Patients With Acute-on-Chronic Liver Failure Based on Different Platelet Count Levels.

To investigate the effect of different platelet (PLT) counts on the safety and efficacy of the double-plasma molecular absorption system (DPMAS) in patients with acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF). A total of 156 patients with ACLF receiving DPMAS were divided into the observed group (40 × 10/L ≤ PLT < 50 × 10/L) and the control group (PLT ≥ 50 × 10/L) according to PLT count level. The safety and efficacy indices of bleeding-related complications, PLT reduction rate, total bilirubin (TBIL) reduction rate, and 28-days survival rate after DPMAS were analyzed and compared between the two groups.

Reorganization of cortical individualized differential structural covariance network is associated with regional morphometric changes in chronic subcortical stroke.

Patients with chronic subcortical stroke undergo regional and network morphometric reorganizations beyond the lesion site, but the interplay between network and regional reorganization remains poorly understood. We aimed to clarify the reorganization patterns of the individualized differential structural covariance networks (IDSCN) in chronic subcortical stroke and investigate their associations with regional gray matter volume (GMV) changes and functional recovery. Structural MRI from four datasets enrolled 112 patients with chronic subcortical stroke (81 male, age: 55.

Changes in the effective optical zone following hyperopic keratorefractive lenticule extraction.

Objective: To evaluate the longitudinal changes in the effective optical zone (EOZ) following hyperopic keratorefractive lenticule extraction (KLEx) and investigate factors influencing the EOZ.

Patients And Methods: This retrospective study included 27 patients who underwent hyperopic KLEx. According to the transition zone (TZ) sizes, they were divided into two groups: group A (21 eyes) with a 2.

Perovskite-Based Smart Eyeglasses as Noncontact Human-Computer Interaction.

More than 70% of human information comes from vision. The eye is one of the most attractive sensing sites to collect biological parameters. However, it is urgent to develop a cost-effective and easy-to-use approach to monitor eyeball information in a minimally invasive way instead of current smart contact lenses or camera-based eyeglasses.
