Source free domain adaptation for kidney and tumor image segmentation with wavelet style mining.

Kidney cancer is a serious malignant disease, and early diagnosis along with precise segmentation are crucial for effective treatment. However, due to the scarcity of labelled medical image data, the development of the intelligent diagnosis of kidney cancer is restricted. To address this challenge, we propose a novel unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) framework specifically designed for kidney and tumor CT image segmentation.

Dark-DSAR: Lightweight one-step pipeline for action recognition in dark videos.

Dark video human action recognition has a wide range of applications in the real world. General action recognition methods focus on the actor or the action itself, ignoring the dark scene where the action happens, resulting in unsatisfied accuracy in recognition. For dark scenes, the existing two-step action recognition methods are stage complex due to introducing additional augmentation steps, and the one-step pipeline method is not lightweight enough.

Application of visual transformer in renal image analysis.

Deep Self-Attention Network (Transformer) is an encoder-decoder architectural model that excels in establishing long-distance dependencies and is first applied in natural language processing. Due to its complementary nature with the inductive bias of convolutional neural network (CNN), Transformer has been gradually applied to medical image processing, including kidney image processing. It has become a hot research topic in recent years.

High CO Reduces Spoilage Caused by in Strawberry Without Impairing Fruit Quality.

High CO (> 20 kPa) conditions are beneficial for suppressing spoilage caused by in strawberry fruit; however, these conditions are often accompanied by discoloration, off-flavors, and faster softening. Stepwise increments of CO concentrations have been proposed to alleviate injuries in fruits caused by high CO. In this study, we investigated whether stepwise increments of CO, up to 30 kPa and under a reduced O concentration, are beneficial for reducing fungal spoilage without inducing CO injury symptoms in strawberry fruit.

Zn-Enriched Bacillus cereus Alleviates Cd Toxicity in Mirror Carp (Cyprinus carpio): Intestinal Microbiota, Bioaccumulation, and Oxidative Stress.

Cadmium (Cd) poisoning in humans and fish represents a significant global problem. Bacillus cereus (B. cereus) is a widely used probiotic in aquaculture.

Effect of selenium-rich Bacillus subtilis against mercury-induced intestinal damage repair and oxidative stress in common carp.

Mercury (Hg) poisoning in humans and fish represents a significant global problem. Hg is one of the most dangerous threats to the aquatic ecosystem due to its high toxicity. Mercury has a high oxidative stress-inducing potential, and can compounds exert toxic effects by interacting with many important enzymes involved in the regulation of antioxidants.

Cadmium exposure affects growth performance, energy metabolism, and neuropeptide expression in Carassius auratus gibelio.

Cadmium (Cd) is the most abundant heavy metal in aquatic environments and is easily detected on a global scale. Carassius auratus gibelio is a common aquaculture species. The aim of this study was to explore the toxic effects of 1, 2, and 4 mg/L Cd on the energy metabolism, growth performance, and neurological responses of C.

Effect on Serum Parameters and Immune Responses of Carassius auratus gibelio Exposed to Dietary Lead and Bacillus subtilis.

Lead (Pb), a heavy metal and an environmental stressor, may affect many physiological processes, including the serum index and the immune response. The aim of this study was to explore the toxic effects of Pb on the serum index and the immune response of Carassius auratus gibelio (C. gibelio) fed 0, 120, or 240 mg/kg Pb, and 10 cfu/g Bacillus subtilis (B.

Study of Bioaccumulation, Hematological Parameters, and Antioxidant Responses of Carassius auratus gibelio Exposed to Dietary Lead and Bacillus subtilis.

Lead (Pb) is one of the most ubiquitous and toxic elements in the aquatic environment. Bacillus subtilis (B. subtilis) is a widely used probiotic in aquaculture.

Effect of sub-chronic exposure to lead (Pb) and Bacillus subtilis on Carassius auratus gibelio: Bioaccumulation, antioxidant responses and immune responses.

Lead (Pb) poisoning in humans and fish represents a significant global problem. Bacillus subtilis (B. subtilis) is a widely used probiotic in aquaculture.
