Continuous Growth Monitoring and Prediction with 1D Convolutional Neural Network Using Generated Data with Vision Transformer.

Crop growth information is collected through destructive investigation, which inevitably causes discontinuity of the target. Real-time monitoring and estimation of the same target crops can lead to dynamic feedback control, considering immediate crop growth. Images are high-dimensional data containing crop growth and developmental stages and image collection is non-destructive.

Factors Affecting the Outcome of Medical Treatment in Cats with Obstructive Ureteral Stones Treated with Tamsulosin: 70 Cases (2018-2022).

The incidence of diseases associated with feline ureteral obstruction is increasing; however, non-surgical treatment options are limited. This study evaluated the outcome of medical treatment in cats with obstructive ureteral stones treated with tamsulosin and identified potential factors predicting spontaneous stone passage. We retrospectively reviewed 70 client-owned cats treated at the Western Referral Animal Medical Center, Seoul, Korea, from 2018 to 2022.

Acute cerebellar infarction associated with intravenous gammaglobulin treatment in idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura.

Intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIGs) are used for a variety of immunologic and hematologic disorders. Hemorheologic alteration or the rapid increase of platelet counts by IVIG administration can cause thrombotic adverse events. We present a 58-year-old woman with a previous diagnosis of idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura who developed cerebellar infarction immediately after IVIG treatment.

Independent association of serum retinol and β-carotene levels with hyperuricemia: A national population study.

Objective: Uses of synthetic vitamin A derivatives (e.g., isotretinoin used for severe acne) and high doses of preformed vitamin A have been implicated in the pathogenesis of hyperuricemia and gout, whereas a trial reported that β-carotene may lower serum uric acid (UA) levels.
