The reliability of virtual non-contrast reconstructions of photon-counting detector CT scans in assessing abdominal organs.
BMC Med Imaging
September 2024
Department of Radiology, Medical Imaging Centre, Semmelweis University, 2 Korányi Sándor St, Budapest, H-1083, Hungary.
Background: Spectral imaging of photon-counting detector CT (PCD-CT) scanners allows for generating virtual non-contrast (VNC) reconstruction. By analyzing 12 abdominal organs, we aimed to test the reliability of VNC reconstructions in preserving HU values compared to real unenhanced CT images.
Methods: Our study included 34 patients with pancreatic cystic neoplasm (PCN).
Measurement of hepatic glucose (F-fluorodeoxyglucose) uptake with positron emission tomography-magnetic resonance imaging in fumonisin B intoxicated rabbit bucks.
Sci Rep
August 2024
Agribiotechnology and Precision Breeding for Food Security National Laboratory, Department of Physiology and Animal Health, Institute of Physiology and Nutrition, Hungarian University of Agriculture and Life Sciences, Kaposvár, Hungary.
Article Synopsis
- Researchers studied the impact of fumonisin B mycotoxins on rabbits to see how well positron emission tomography-magnetic resonance (PET MR) imaging could detect liver damage.
- The study involved administering mycotoxins in their diet for 14 days and measuring liver glucose uptake using an F-FDG radiotracer before and after treatment.
- Findings showed increased liver glucose uptake and some correlation between tissue health markers, indicating mild liver toxicity can be sensitively detected with this imaging technique.
Association between human herpesvirus 8 and lipid profile in northwest China: A cross-sectional study.
J Med Virol
August 2024
Department of Dermatology, People's Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, Urumqi, China.
Human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8) infection shows obvious regional and ethnic differences. Although studies have shown that these differences may be associated with lipid metabolism, to date, no large-scale studies have explored this. This study explored the seropositivity rate of HHV-8 among 2516 residents from 10 regions of northwest China and then the correlates of HHV-8 infection with lipid profile.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFPrevalence of anal high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) types in people living with HIV and a history of cancer.
HIV Med
October 2024
Infectious Diseases Department, Instituto Nacional de Cancerología, Mexico City, Mexico.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigated the prevalence of high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) in the anal canal among people living with HIV who have a history of cancer.
- A total of 155 predominantly male patients were analyzed, revealing an alarming 89% prevalence of HR-HPV, with many experiencing co-infections and significant levels of anal lesions.
- The findings emphasize the critical need for anal cancer screening in this high-risk group, particularly considering the presence of prevalent HR-HPV types 16 and 18, even among younger patients.
A global survey on the use of the international classification of diseases codes for metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease.
Hepatol Int
August 2024
MAFLD Research Center, Department of Hepatology, The First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University, Wenzhou, China.
Background: With the implementation of the 11th edition of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11) and the publication of the metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) nomenclature in 2020, it is important to establish consensus for the coding of MAFLD in ICD-11. This will inform subsequent revisions of ICD-11.
Methods: Using the Qualtrics XM and WJX platforms, questionnaires were sent online to MAFLD-ICD-11 coding collaborators, authors of papers, and relevant association members.
