Objectives: Although exercise-induced vascular adaptations have been extensively reported in racket sports athletes, the applicability of these findings to athletes in other overhead sports is unclear. This study aimed to investigate exercise-induced vascular adaptations in college male baseball players. Furthermore, since the training frequency of the upper arm may differ by baseball playing position, this study also focused on playing position-specific differences in brachial arterial adaptations.

In plain radiography, scattered X-ray correction processing (Virtual Grid: VG) is used to estimate and correct scattered rays in images. We developed an objective evaluation system for bedside chest X-ray images using VG and investigated its usefulness. First, we trained the blind/referenceless image spatial quality evaluator (BRISQUE) on 200 images obtained by portable chest radiography.

Accuracies of measuring the artifact index (AI), a quantitative artifact evaluation index in X-ray CT images, were investigated. The AI is calculated based not only on the standard deviation (SD) of the artifact area in the image, but also on the SD of noise components for considering the noise influence. However, conventional measurement methods may not follow this consideration, for example the non-uniformity of the noise distribution is not taken into account, resulting in reducing the accuracy of AI.

Purpose: To investigate the impact of foveal glial tissue on the anatomical and functional results after macular hole (MH) surgery.
Methods: This study included 141 consecutive eyes that underwent successful vitrectomy for full-thickness MH between January 2015 and December 2022. The best-corrected visual acuity and the length of outer retinal defects were evaluated preoperatively and at 6 months postoperatively.
