more accurate method, Delta-Age-Sex-AdaIn (DASA-net), for bone age assessment, this paper combines age and sex distribution through adaptive instance normalization (AdaIN) and style transfer, simulating the process of visually comparing hand images with a standard bone atlas to determine bone age...
the expression of MMP-3, MMP-13, IL-1 and IL-6 in rabbit annulus fibrosus stem cells (AFSCs), inhibit mTOR signaling, reduce SASP secretion, regulate the inflammatory response in vivo, and inhibit cell senescence, thus showing potential for the treatment of age-related diseases,204including ...
X-ray bone age assessment (BAA) in children and adolescents is a very important tool for pediatricians in the diagnosis of endocrine and metabolic diseases related to growth and development [1]. It is well known that the Greulich-Pyle (GP) and the Tanner-Whitehouse 3 (TW3) methods are the...
Osteoarthritis comprises several joint disorders characterized by articular cartilage degeneration and persistent pain, causing disability and economic burden. The incidence of osteoarthritis is rapidly increasing worldwide due to aging and obesity trend
The following inclusion criteria were applied: (1) patients 5– 18 years old and (2) dual energy x-ray absorptiometry scans and hand radiographs obtained on the same day. energy x-ray absorptiometry scan. These values were adjusted for age and gender based on normative data provided by the ...
