Abstract:
Over the last decade, studies have implicated the cerebellum not only in motor functioning, but also in cognition and social cognition. Although some aspects of cognition have been explored in the five most common forms of Spinocerebellar Ataxia (SCA), social cognition in these patients has rarely been examined. The present study provides a preliminary characterisation of the severity of cognitive and social cognitive impairments in patients with SCA2, SCA1 and SCA7 using an identical battery to the one previously used in SCA3 and SCA6 patients for comparison.

Abstract:
The diagnosis and incidence of spinocerebelar ataxias (SCA) is sometimes difficult to analyze due the overlap of phenotypes subtypes and are disorders of mutations caused by CAG trinucleotide repeat expansion. To investigate the incidence of the SCA in Southern Brazil, we analyzed the trinucleotide repeats (CAG)n at the SCA1, SCA2, SCA3, SCA6 and SCA7 loci to identify allele size ranges and frequencies. We examined blood sample from 154 asymptomatic blood donors and 115 individuals with progressive ataxias. PCR products were submitted to capillary electrophoresis. In the blood donors, the rang

Abstract:
The spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs) are a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of late onset neurodegenerative disorders. To date, seven different genes causing autosomal dominant SCA have been mapped: SCA1, SCA2, Machado-Joseph disease (MJD)/SCA3, SCA4, SCA5, SCA7 and dentatorubropallidoluysian atrophy (DRPLA). Expansions of an unstable trinucleotide CAG repeat cause three of these disorders: SCA1, MJD/SCA3 and DRPLA. We studied one Brazilian family segregating an autosomal dominant type of SCA.

Abstract:
This paper proposes a method for CNN-based fault detection of the scan-matching algorithm for accurate SLAM in dynamic environments. When there are dynamic objects in an environment, the environment that is detected by a LiDAR sensor changes. Thus, the scan matching of laser scans is likely to fail. Therefore, a more robust scan-matching algorithm to overcome the faults of scan matching is needed for 2D SLAM. The proposed method first receives raw scan data in an unknown environment and executes ICP (Iterative Closest Points) scan matching of laser scans from a 2D LiDAR. Then, the matched scan

For assessment of response to chemoimmunotherapy, it has been proposed that PET-CT scan may be superior to CT scan and, in particular, demonstration of metabolic complete response (CR) by PET-CT scan at end of treatment (EOT) may be an important indicator of long term survival.

We examine the convergence properties of some simple Gibbs sampler examples under various scans. We find some surprising results, including Gibbs samplers where deterministic-scan is much more efficient than random-scan, and other samplers where the opposite is true. We also present an example where the convergence takes precisely the same time with any fixed deterministic scan, but modifying the scan in any way leads to significantly slower convergence.

Abstract:
Background: Prostate cancer (PCa) ranks as the second most prevalent cancer among men globally. The utilization of efficient and cost-effective diagnostic and therapeutic approaches holds paramount importance in the diagnosis and treatment of these patients, significantly impacting treatment outcomes. This study focuses on the investigation and comparison of two commonly employed scans within the treatment process for these patients. Methods: In this prospective study, which spanned over 2 years, 40 patients diagnosed with PCa underwent examination using two scans: 99m Technetium-Prostate-spec

Abstract:
A complete digital tooth model is needed for computer-aided orthodontic treatment. However, current methods mainly use computed tomography (CT) images to reconstruct the tooth model which may require multiple CT scans during orthodontic progress, and the reconstructed model is also inaccurate in crown area. This study developed a tooth model reconstruction method based on integration of CT images and laser scan images to overcome these disadvantages. In the method, crown models and complete tooth models are first reconstructed, respectively, from laser scan images and CT images. Then, crown mo

Abstract:
The optimal scan pattern for full-arch digital implant impressions remains to be determined. This study aimed to analyze the effects of different scan patterns on the trueness of intraoral scanners for full-arch digital implant impressions. A maxillary plaster model with 4 implant analogs was employed as the master model. Scan bodies were attached to the master model and scanned with a laboratory scanner to obtain reference data. Test scans were obtained using 3 different scan patterns with Cerec Primescan and Trios 3. Each test datum was superimposed onto the reference data. The trueness was

Abstract:
This study reports the laser grooving of glass. In this study, an ultraviolet (UV) nanosecond laser is used to produce grooves in soda lime glass by varying laser power, scan speed, pulse repetition rate, and number of scans. The threshold power density to generate damage on glass surface is found to be ~6.37 × 108 W/cm2. According to the result of a single laser scan, at a high laser power and low scan speed, material removal does not nearly occur, and only volume melting underneath the glass surface and large thermal crack are induced.

Abstract:
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been used to study the history of multiple sclerosis (MS). We analyze the relationship between MRI activity in the first scan compared to the subsequent five scans, and we evaluate whether a shorter observation period of 3 months may predict the subsequent 3 months. Monthly enhanced MRI was performed in 103 relapsing remitting (RR) MS patients for 6 months. Thirty-five per cent of patients had an inactive scan on the initial examination. More than 80% of them developed MRI activity during the following 5 months. Eighteen per cent of patients had three conse

Abstract:
[18F]NaF PET measurements of bone metabolic flux (Ki) are conventionally obtained with 60-min dynamic scans analysed using the Hawkins model. However, long scan times make this method expensive and uncomfortable for subjects. Therefore, we evaluated and compared measurements of Ki with shorter scan times analysed with fixed values of the Hawkins model rate constants. The scans were acquired in a trial in 30 postmenopausal women, half treated with teriparatide (TPT) and half untreated. Sixty-minute PET-CT scans of both hips were acquired at baseline and week 12 after injection with 180 MBq [18F

Abstract:
Autotransporter proteins are widely present in Gram-negative bacteria. They play a pivotal role in processes related to bacterial pathogenesis, including adhesion, invasion, colonization, biofilm formation, and cellular toxicity. Bioinformatics analysis revealed that Orientia tsutsugamushi, the causative agent of scrub typhus, encodes six different autotransporter genes (scaA–scaF). Although four of these genes (scaA, scaC, scaD, and scaE) are present in diverse strains, scaB and scaF have been detected in only a limited number of strains. Previous studies have demonstrated that ScaA and ScaC

Abstract:
Today, Computed Tomography is becoming increasingly important as a non-destructive testing technique in industry. The advantages of evaluating 3D information are manifold and system costs have fallen in recent years. However, these systems suffer from the disadvantage that performing a measurement is more complex and error-prone than pure radioscopic testing. Thus, users with more skill and experience are needed to get the most out of the scan. Nowadays, the process of parametrizing the CT scan is often completely manual and mostly performed by inspection engineers due to the high number of av
