Diabetes Therapy
Differential Effect of Hypoalbuminemia on Hypoglycemia on Type 2 Diabetes Patients Treated with Insulin Glargine 300 U/ml and Insulin DegludecAbstractIntroductionHypoglycemia resulting from insulin therapy for treatment of diabetes increases the risk of adverse cardiovascular events. Determining biomarkers that provide accurate estimation of hypoglycemia risk may allow for more accurate patient management and care. The purpose of this study was to determine the cutoff value of serum albumin (s-alb)...

Complex Liver Injury—a Quagmire to a Trauma SurgeonAbstractNon-operative management has become a norm in patients with liver trauma and operative management is guided by hemodynamic status. Introduction of haemodynamic status. Introduction of contrast enhanced computed tomography (CECT) abdomen has made NOM possible by helping in exclusion of other injuries and identification of vascular injuries. Haemodynamic instability is now considered as an only absolute indication for operative intervention...

Sialolipoma of Parotid Gland: a Lesser Known Entity,AbstractAround 51 cases of sialolipoma of the salivary gland have been reported worldwide as per the literature reviewed. Majority of cases (n = 25) arise from the parotid gland (51.4%) clinically behaving like pleomorphic adenoma with very less incidence of facial nerve entrapment (14%). Sialolipoma is a rare neoplasm of the salivary glands, described as a distinct entity by Nagao et al. in 2001. Lipomatous neoplasms of the parotid gland are rare...

Responses to dead and dying conspecifics and heterospecifics by wild mountain gorillas ( Gorilla beringei beringei ) and chimpanzees ( Pan troglodytes schweinfurthii )AbstractComparative ["evolutionary")] thanatology is devoted to investigating how animals respond to signs of death and dying, in conspecifics and other species. Responses to corpses often involve fear and confusion, and "deceased infant carrying" by females is widespread in nonhuman primates. Such behavior could result from "animacy...

Radiomics Model to Predict Early Progression of Nonmetastatic Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma after Intensity Modulation Radiation Therapy..............Key Points : ■ We trained and developed a machine-learning model based on pretreatment MRI radiomic features to predict 3-year disease progression in patients with nonmetastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma after primary treatment. ■ The radiomic model achieved an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.80 in discriminating patients with disease progression within 3 years in both the discovery cohort and the independent validation cohort. ■ By using the explanatory machine learning framework Shapley additive explanations, we identified tumor shape sphericity and first-order mean absolute deviation as important factors in driving the risk of 3-year disease progression in patients.
: A Multicenter Study A machine-learning radiomic model based on pretreatment MRI findings has potential in the identification of patients with nonmetastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma who are at risk for early disease progression after primary treatment.   Richard Du, Victor H.
