Introduction: Urinary incontinence (UI) is an uncontrollable expulsion of urine at a time. UI is obviously not life-threatening, but its impact on the patient's quality of life (QoL) is often devastating. Many treatments method to address this problem but all these methods have limitations.

Objectives: To evaluate the effectiveness of an MRI radiomics stacking ensemble learning model, which combines T2-weighted imaging (T2WI) and contrast-enhanced T1-weighted imaging (CE-T1WI) with deep learning-based automatic segmentation, for preoperative prediction of the prognosis of high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation of uterine fibroids.
Methods: This retrospective study collected data from 360 patients with uterine fibroids who underwent HIFU treatment. The dataset was sourced from Center A (training set: N = 240; internal test set: N = 60) and Center B (external test set: N = 60).

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease that seriously threatens human health and affects the quality of life of patients. At present, pharmacotherapy is still the mainstream treatment for RA, but most methods have shortcomings, such as poor drug targeting, a low effective drug dosage at the inflammatory site, and high systemic toxicity. The combined application of drug-loaded nanobubbles and ultrasound technology provides a new technique for the treatment of RA.

Research has shown that exposure to higher rates of neighborhood disadvantage and contextual threat increases risk for the development of psychopathology in youth, with some evidence that these effects may differ across racial/ethnic groups. Although studies have shown that direct exposure to stress impacts neural responses to threat-relevant stimuli, less is known about how neighborhood characteristics more generally (e.g.

Objective: To develop and validate a nomogram for predicting the effectiveness of high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation for uterine fibroids based on oxytocin experiments combined with sonographic features.
Methods: Sixty patients with uterine fibroids treated with HIFU combined with oxytocin for uterine fibroids were retrospectively analyzed. Before HIFU treatment, all patients underwent abdominal ultrasonography and oxytocin testing for classification.
