Three-dimensional interactive model of lumbar spinal structures
The application of three-dimensional software to pre-operative magnètic resonance imaging (MRI) data [1] enables 3D models to be reconstructed and embedded in Portable Document Format (PDF) files [2, 3]. We wish to bring ...
Intra-amniotic inflammatory response in subgroups of women with preterm prelabor rupture of the membranes
Background To evaluate the influence of microbial invasion of the amniotic cavity (MIAC) and histological chorioamnionitis (HCA) on the magnitude of intra-amniotic inflammatory response in preterm prelabor rupture of ...
Prediction of Neonatal Respiratory Morbidity Assessed by Quantitative Ultrasound Lung Texture Analysis in Twin Pregnancies
The objective of this study was to evaluate the performance of quantitative ultrasound of fetal lung texture analysis in predicting neonatal respiratory morbidity (NRM) in twin pregnancies. This was an ambispective study ...
Characteristics of post-menopausal women with genitourinary syndrome of menopause: Implications for vulvovaginal atrophy diagnosis and treatment selection.
BACKGROUND: Vulvovaginal atrophy (VVA), also known as genitourinary syndrome of menopause, exerts a negative impact on the sexuality, health and quality of life of post-menopausal women. A better understanding of post-menopausal ...
Nutritional intra-amniotic therapy increases survival in a rabbit model of fetal growth restriction
Objective To evaluate the perinatal effects of a prenatal therapy based on intra-amniotic nutritional supplementation in a rabbit model of intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR). Methods IUGR was surgically induced in ...
Diagnostic odyssey in an adult patient with ophthalmologic abnormalities and hearing loss: Contribution of RNA-seq to the diagnosis of a PEX1 deficiency.
Peroxisomal biogenesis disorders (PBDs) are a heterogeneous group of genetic diseases. Multiple peroxisomal pathways are impaired, and very long chain fatty acids (VLCFA) are the first line biomarkers for the diagnosis. ...
When the FAT goes wide: Right extended Frontal Aslant Tract volume predicts performance on working memory tasks in healthy humans.
The Frontal Aslant Tract (FAT) is a tract recently described as having implications on language function. The originally proposed anatomical FAT definition characterizes a connection between Broca's territory and anterior ...

Exosomal microRNAs isolated from plasma of mesenteric veins linked to liver metastases in resected patients with colon cancer
Before reaching a peripheral vein (PV), miRNAs released by the tumor are diluted and dispersed throughout the body or even retained in a specific organ. We hypothesized that blood drawn from the tumor-draining vein could ...
