Diagnostic cardiologists have considerable clinical demand for precise segmentation of echocardiography to diagnose cardiovascular disease. The paradox is that manual segmentation of echocardiography is a time-consuming and operator-dependent task. Computer-aided segmentation can reduce the workflow greatly.

Introduction: Due to the increasing prevalence of immune-mediated diseases such as psoriasis, lichen planus, rheumatoid arthritis and inflammatory bowel disease, dermatologists have turned to new biologic drugs known as DMARDs (disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs) in recent years.
Areas Covered: In this study, we evaluate the immune-mediated dermatological side effects of DMARDS by reviewing and analyzing previous peer-reviewed research on the effects of TNF-α inhibitors in the treatment of skin diseases, as well as adverse effects of these drugs and some of the main causes of these effects.
Expert Opinion: DMARDs are very effective in improving control of the above diseases.

Genomic effect variants associated with survival and protection against complex diseases vary between populations due to microevolutionary processes. The aim of this study was to analyse diversity and distribution of effect variants in a context of potential positive selection. In total, 475 individuals of Lithuanian origin were genotyped using high-throughput scanning and/or sequencing technologies.
