A NEW FRAMEWORK OF MULTIPHASE SEGMENTATION AND ITS APPLICATION TO PARTIAL VOLUME SEGMENTATION


Case report: retroperitoneal aspergilloma in a patient with rheumatoid arthritis presenting as malignant tumor

Abstract Background Aspergillosis in patients with impaired immunity usually presents with invasive pulmonary infection and dissemination to a variety of organs via hematogenous spread.Aspergilloma in the retroperitoneal cavity is a rare disease with only a few cases reported in the literature.To the best of our knowledge, the present case of a ret

Factorised 3d N $$ mathcal{N} $$ = 4 orthosymplectic quivers

Abstract We study the moduli space of 3d N $$ Diffuser Oil mathcal{N} $$ = 4 quiver gauge theories with unitary, orthogonal and symplectic gauge nodes, that fall into exceptional sequences.We find that both the Higgs and Coulomb branches of the moduli space factorise into decoupled sectors.Each decoupled sector is described by a single quiver gauge

A conserved transcription factor controls gluconeogenesis via distinct targets in hypersaline-adapted archaea with diverse metabolic capabilities.

Timely regulation of carbon metabolic pathways is essential for cellular processes and to prevent futile cycling of intracellular metabolites.In Halobacterium salinarum, a hypersaline adapted archaeon, a sugar-sensing TrmB family protein controls gluconeogenesis and other biosynthetic pathways.Notably, Hbt.salinarum does not utilize carbohydrates f

Effects of a sustained-release multi-trace element ruminal bolus on sex ratio, reproductive traits and lambs growth in synchronized Afshari ewes

The objective of the present study was to investigate the effects of a sustained-release multi-trace element ruminal bolus on sex ratio, the reproductive performance and lambs growth of Afshari ewes.Eighty Afshari cycling ewes during breeding season were used in the trial.The animals were synchronized using CIDR for 14 days and assigned into 4 grou
