Objective: Abnormalities of global visual scanning have been well-recognized in schizophrenia patients. However, its relevance to various cognitive domains is still understudied. In the present study, we identified the association between global visual scanning and cognitive function in schizophrenia.
Methods: Eye movement was captured and analyzed in 28 individuals with schizophrenia and 21 healthy controls in free viewing test. The MATRICS consensus cognitive battery (MCCB) was applied to evaluate cognitive function.
Results: Consistent with previous reports, schizophrenia patients exhibited several eye movement abnormalities during global visual scanning and showed cognition deficits in MCCB test as compared with healthy controls. Fixation duration was significantly related to cognitive dysfunction in schizophrenia. Moreover, there was a potential that eye movement measures during landscape scanning, rather than face scanning, were preferentially related to cognitive dysfunction.
Conclusion: This study indicated the association between free visual scanning and various cognitive functions in schizophrenia, shedding light on the possibility that some eye movement measures during visual exploration could be a biomarker for cognitive deficits in schizophrenia.

The current work introduces the hybrid ensemble framework for the detection and segmentation of colorectal cancer. This framework will incorporate both supervised classification and unsupervised clustering methods to present more understandable and accurate diagnostic results. The method entails several steps with CNN models: ADa-22 and AD-22, transformer networks, and an SVM classifier, all inbuilt.

Objective: The bare area is defined as a transverse region within the trochlear notch, serving as an optimal entry point for olecranon osteotomy due to the absence of articular cartilage coverage. However, there is limited research on the morphology and location of the bare area, and there is a lack of intuitive visual description. Thus, the purpose of this study is to delineate anatomical features of the bare area and visualize its morphology and refine the olecranon osteotomy approach.

Intraoperative consultation is frequently used during the surgical treatment of lung tumors for the diagnosis of malignancy and the assessment of surgical margins. The latter is often problematic given the nature of the applied staple lines, which cannot be readily examined in frozen sections. Seventy-nine samples of surgical margins (71 staple lines and 8 open margins) from 52 lung specimens were examined using an ex vivo fluorescence confocal microscope (FCM).

- Brain tumors (BT), both benign and malignant, pose a substantial impact on human health and need precise and early detection for successful treatment. Analysing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) image is a common method for BT diagnosis and segmentation, yet misdiagnoses yield effective medical responses, impacting patient survival rates. Recent technological advancements have popularized deep learning-based medical image analysis, leveraging transfer learning to reuse pre-trained models for various applications.

Hyperpolarized-C magnetic resonance imaging (HP-C MRI) was used to image changes in C-lactate signal during a visual stimulus condition in comparison to an eyes-closed control condition. Whole-brain C-pyruvate, C-lactate and C-bicarbonate production was imaged in healthy volunteers (N = 6, ages 24-33) for the two conditions using two separate hyperpolarized C-pyruvate injections. BOLD-fMRI scans were used to delineate regions of functional activation.
