AI Article Synopsis

Article Abstract

The Authors report a case of right diaphragmatic hernia due to road-traffic accident. They discuss the problems of early diagnosis because it is delayed for multiple associated lesions or a low index of suspicion. The ratio of laceration of the left side to that of the right is twenty to one. The clinical and diagnostic data best able to lead to a rapid preoperative diagnosis are considered. The Authors recommended early operative treatment and the thoracic approach; thoracoabdominal incisions are more suitable whenever abdominal lesions are coexisting. The Authors stress the use of safety belts with three point fastener which have significantly decreases cranial and abdominal lesions, particularly if associated with two rolls up.

Skeletal and Adipose Manifestations of Stress in a Contemporary Pediatric Sample.

Am J Biol Anthropol

January 2025

School of Anthropology and Archaeology, The Australian National University, Canberra, Australian Capital Territory, Australia.

Introduction: Adverse experiences leading to physiological disruptions (stress) in early life produce cascade effects on various biological systems, including the endocrine and metabolic systems, which, in turn, shape the developing skeletal system. To evaluate the effects of stress on adipose and skeletal tissues, we examine the relationship between skeletal indicators of stress (porotic hyperostosis [PH] and cribra orbitalia [CO]), bone mineral density (BMD), vertebral neural canal (VNC) diameters, and adipose tissue distribution in a contemporary pediatric autopsy sample.

Methods: Data is from 702 (409 males, 293 females) individuals from a pediatric (0.

Automated ultrasonography of hepatocellular carcinoma using discrete wavelet transform based deep-learning neural network.

Med Image Anal

January 2025

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, College of Information and Communication Engineering, Sungkyunkwan University, Suwon, 440-746, South Korea. Electronic address:

This study introduces HCC-Net, a novel wavelet-based approach for the accurate diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) from abdominal ultrasound (US) images using artificial neural networks. The HCC-Net integrates the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) to decompose US images into four sub-band images, a lesion detector for hierarchical lesion localization, and a pattern-augmented classifier for generating pattern-enhanced lesion images and subsequent classification. The lesion detection uses a hierarchical coarse-to-fine approach to minimize missed lesions.

Multiple liver metastases of unknown origin: A case report.

Background: The liver is the most common site of digestive system tumor metastasis, but not all liver metastases can be traced back to the primary lesions. Although it is unusual, syphilis can impact the liver, manifesting as syphilitic hepatitis with inflammatory nodules, which might be misdiagnosed as metastasis.

Case Summary: This case report involves a 46-year-old female who developed right upper abdominal pain and intermittent low fever that persisted for more than three months.
