We describe a 12-year-old boy in whom primary Staphylococcus aureus thrombophlebitis of the femoral and iliac veins developed without history of trauma and with no association with acute osteomyelitis. The patient responded to therapy with intravenously administered antibiotics for 6 weeks, although oxacillin-associated hepatitis developed during the course of treatment.

Extensive research on retinal layer segmentation (RLS) using deep learning (DL) is mostly approaching a performance plateau, primarily due to reliance on structural information alone. To address the present situation, we conduct the first study on the impact of multi-spectral information (MSI) on RLS. Our experimental results show that incorporating MSI significantly improves segmentation accuracy for retinal layer optical coherence tomography (OCT) images.

We employed high-resolution fMRI to distinguish the impacts of anisometropia and strabismus amblyopia on the evoked ocular dominance (OD) response. Sixteen amblyopic participants (8 females) plus 8 individuals with normal vision (1 female), participated in this study for whom, we measured the difference between the response to stimulation of the two eyes, across areas V1-V4.In controls, the evoked OD response formed the expected striped pattern within V1.

The purpose of this study was to develop a robust deep learning approach trained with a small in-vivo MRI dataset for multi-label segmentation of all eight carpal bones for therapy planning and wrist dynamic analysis. Approach: A small dataset of 15 3.0-T MRI scans from five health subjects was employed within this study.

The diagnosis and treatment of intestinal and urinary tract deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) remain challenging due to its multiple lesions and nonspecific symptoms and signs. This study retrospectively analyzed 72 cases of intestinal and urinary tract DIE, including the clinical characteristics, diagnosis, and treatment outcomes. Among these cases, 11 presented without clinical symptoms, while 61 exhibited obvious clinical symptoms, primarily dysmenorrhea (58.

Background: The rate of VTE in trauma patients varies significantly in the reported literature. We aimed to determine the incidence of VTE in trauma patients in a trauma-receiving hospital over a 7-year period. We sought to evaluate the timing and nature of VTE events and explore the patterns of co-occurrence between PE and DVT, while factoring in clinical care and death outcome.
