Segmentation for a medical virtual environment is a process of image diagnosis. It should be performed by clinical doctors, otherwise the data may be meaningless for using clinical purposes. At the National Cancer Center, in Japan, we have recently developed interactive, editable real-time volume rendering software (VolMed), based on Volren-6 software, with the ability to interactively edit the 3D images of a patient's virtual cancer and virtual organs, in a virtual environment. Doctors can see proposed solutions to clinical problems as 3D images, using real-time volume rendering. We conclude that interactive editing is very important for clinical use, and also decreases the time required to create the virtual cancer images used for surgical simulation, pre-surgical planning and 3D invasion diagnoses.

Correlation among blastocoel fluid DNA level, apoptotic genes expression and preimplantation aneuploidy.

Reprod Fertil

January 2025

M Bazrgar, Department of Genetics, Reproductive Biomedicine Research Center, Royan Institute for Reproductive Biomedicine, ACECR, Tehran, Iran., Tehran, Iran (the Islamic Republic of).

It is believed that aneuploid embryos release cell-free DNA (cfDNA) into the blastocyst cavity during the self-correction process through the apoptotic mechanism. This study aimed to develop less invasive methods for predicting ploidy status by investigating how ploidy status affects blastocoel fluid DNA (BF-DNA) levels and apoptotic gene expression as indicators of embryo viability. Human blastocysts were classified into three groups; Survivable Embryo (SE), Fatal Single and double Aneuploidy (FSDA), and Multiple Aneuploidy (MA) using array comparative genomic hybridization (array-CGH) by trophectoderm (TE) biopsy.

Observation of Real-Time Spin-Orbit Torque Driven Dynamics in Antiferromagnetic Thin Film.

Adv Mater

January 2025

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, and Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of California, Los Angeles, CA, 90095, USA.

In the burgeoning field of spintronics, antiferromagnetic materials (AFMs) are attracting significant attention for their potential to enable ultra-fast, energy-efficient devices. Thin films of AFMs are particularly promising for practical applications due to their compatibility with spin-orbit torque (SOT) mechanisms. However, studying these thin films presents challenges, primarily due to the weak signals they produce and the rapid dynamics driven by SOT, that are too fast for conventional electric transport or microwave techniques to capture.

Uniaxial compression experiments were conducted on coal rock utilizing a computed tomography (CT) scanning system for real-time monitoring to explain the issue of gas volume significantly exceeding reservoir capacity during coal and gas outbursts. A percolation factor a which can make a significant contribution to the research on premonitory information of gas outbursts is introduced to determine whether percolation occurs in coal rock, and supports the outburst percolation theory. It was found that percolation probability and correlation length increase with greater porosity, and that the number of pore clusters decreases as porosity increases.

Mechanical ventilation is the process through which breathing support is provided to patients who face inconvenience during respiration. During the pandemic, many people were suffering from lung disorders, which elevated the demand for mechanical ventilators. The handling of mechanical ventilators is to be done under the assistance of trained professionals and demands the selection of ideal parameters.

This study focuses on the regulatory effects of genes encoding the juvenile hormone (JH) receptor methoprene-tolerant () and transcription factor krüppel homolog 1 () on the reproductive capacity of male adults. and expression levels were analyzed in males fed on artificial diets with and without JH by quantitative real-time PCR, and the effects of and on male reproduction were analyzed by RNA interference technology. transcription levels in 5- and 10-day-old males fed with a JH-supplemented diet were lower than those without JH.
