Abstract Neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) is among the main causes of visual impairment worldwide.We built a deep learning model to distinguish the subtypes of nAMD using spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) images.Data from SD-OCT images of nAMD (polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy, retinal angiomatous proliferati
Extending Applications of Generalizability Theory-Based Bifactor Model Designs
In recent years, researchers have described how to analyze generalizability theory (GT) based univariate, multivariate, and bifactor designs using structural equation models.However, within GT studies of bifactor models, variance components have been limited to those reflecting relative differences in scores for norm-referencing purposes, with only
The effect of norepinephrine on ovarian dysfunction by mediating ferroptosis in mice model
Studies have shown that stress is associated with ovarian dysfunction.Norepinephrine (NE), a classic stress hormone involved in the stress response, is less recognized for its role in ovarian function.In this study, an NE-treated mouse model is induced by intraperitoneal injection of NE for 4 weeks.Compared with normal control mice, NE-treated mice
Mean Wave Drift Forces on a Barge-Type Floating Wind Turbine Platform with Moonpools
Barge-type platforms with moonpools are a promising type of foundation for floating offshore wind turbines due to their good seakeeping performance.In this paper, the mean wave drift force on a barge-type vertical-axis floating wind turbine with multiple moonpools was investigated through physical model testing and numerical calculations using WAMI
New insight for metformin against bladder cancer
Abstract International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) estimated that bladder cancer is the ninth most common cancer in the world, with Acrylic Keychain Gift Box 430,000 new cases and 165,000 deaths in 2012.Bladder cancer represents the fourth most common cancer in men and ninth most common cancer in women.It is the second most prevalent cance
