In a cross-sectional study of 137 participants, patients with schizophrenia showed slower attention task responses (p<0.05) and enlarged bilateral pallidum volume. Pallidum enlargement correlated with reduced alertness (r=0.42, p=4.3×10⁻⁴) and was linked to a distinct brain tran…
In a retrospective study, a dynamic quantitative collateral index (TCI) from 4D-CTA predicted early neurological recovery (AUC = 0.858) in anterior circulation LVO, outperforming the Tan visual score (AUC = 0.810, p = 0.012) and equating to the expert multiphase Menon score.
Artificial intelligence interpretation of abdominal radiographs for necrotising enterocolitis (NEC) achieves pooled sensitivity of 0.78 (95% CI 0.67-0.85) and specificity of 0.84 (95% CI 0.73-0.91). The meta-analysis suggests a role as a decision-support adjunct rather than a st…
Decoding of declarative odor cueing from sleep spindle-band EEG surpassed non-declarative cueing, with strongest effects in central channels, but effects were modest and did not survive correction for multiple comparisons.
