Article Abstract

Mass Based Imaging (MBI) technologies such as Multiplexed Ion Beam Imaging by time of flight (MIBI-TOF) and Imaging Mass Cytometry (IMC) allow for the simultaneous measurement of the expression levels of 40 or more proteins in biological tissue, providing insight into cellular phenotypes and organization in situ. Imaging artifacts, resulting from the sample, assay or instrumentation complicate downstream analyses and require correction by domain experts. Here, we present MBI Analysis User Interface (MAUI), a series of graphical user interfaces that facilitate this data pre-processing, including the removal of channel crosstalk, noise and antibody aggregates. Our software streamlines these steps and accelerates processing by enabling real-time and interactive parameter tuning across multiple images.

Phase-contrast micro-tomography ([Formula: see text]CT) with synchrotron radiation can aid in the differentiation of subtle density variations in weakly absorbing soft tissue specimens. Modulation-based imaging (MBI) extracts phase information from the distortion of reference patterns, generated by periodic or randomly structured wavefront markers (e.g.

The Maslach Burnout Inventory-Student Survey (MBI-SS) is a widely used instrument to assess burnout levels, which provides valuable insight into their psychological well-being. Accurate measurement of burnout is crucial for developing interventions aimed at reducing stress and promoting mental health among students. This study aims to validate the MBI-SS when applied among Thai university students and to examine whether the psychometric properties of the scale are consistent with the original conceptual framework.

Electronic address:

Heart failure is a progressive condition associated with a high mortality rate. Despite advancements in treatment, many patients continue to experience less-than-ideal outcomes. Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFAs) have been studied as a potential supplementary therapy for heart failure, but the optimal dosage and duration of supplementation remain unclear.

Objectives: To assess the role of felt stigma versus enacted stigma in the health-related quality of life of community--dwelling stroke survivors in China.

Materials And Methods: A sample of 189 community--dwelling stroke survivors were investigated with the Stigma Scale for Chronic Illness (SSCI), 12-item Short Form-12 Health Survey (SF-12), modified Barthel index (MBI), Zung Self-Rating Depression Scale (ZSDS), and demographic and disease-related characteristics. Hierarchical multiple regression analysis was used to estimate the influence of felt stigma and enacted stigma on quality of life after controlling for depression, activities of daily living, and patient characteristics.
