Nerves and muscles are connected and work together in the body. Nerves send signals that tell muscles to contract or relax. Dr. Nagy's presentation covered the relationship between nerves and muscles.
This thesis presents methods for automatically localizing fetal organs in MRI scans. It describes localizing the brain in 2 steps - detecting candidate brain regions using size filtering then further localizing through slice-by-slice segmentation, achieving median error of 5.7mm. For the body, it sequentially localizes organs by normalizing size by gestational age and using steerable image features informed by anatomy, detecting the heart center within 10mm in 90% of cases. This allows fully automated motion correction in over 70% of scans, presenting the first method to fully automatically localize multiple fetal organs beyond just the brain.
Automatic Localisation of the Brain in Fetal MRI (Miccai 2013 poster)Kevin Keraudren
This document presents a method for automatically localizing the fetal brain in MRI scans acquired as stacks of misaligned 2D slices due to fetal motion. The method first detects Maximally Stable Extremal Regions in each slice and filters by size. Histograms of SIFT features from the regions are classified using SVM to identify the brain. A 3D bounding box is fitted using RANSAC. Evaluation on 59 fetuses showed the detected box contained the entire brain in 85% of cases with a median error of 5.7mm from ground truth.
Scientists have developed a new drug called intracellular sigma peptide (ISP) that shows promise in helping treat paralysis by encouraging nerves in the spinal cord to grow and repair injuries. In lab animals with severe spinal injuries, ISP helped recover abilities like urinating, moving muscles, or both. While more work remains, scientists are hopeful ISP may provide a future therapy for humans to regain lost functions from spinal cord injuries.

The document summarizes the global banking and finance industry. It discusses major players, market share of top banks, and the evolution of the industry due to factors like deregulation, increased mergers and acquisitions, and financial globalization. It also compares the Indian banking sector to global banks, noting that only one Indian bank is in the top 100 globally and that Indian banks have lower revenues and profits but higher returns on assets than major foreign banks. Key success factors for banks are said to include consolidation, strengthening retail banking, offshoring decisions, risk management, and corporate governance.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms for those who already suffer from conditions like anxiety and depression.

This document proposes research on experimenting with a novel seaweed extract to control Pseudomonas infections. Pseudomonas aeruginosa commonly causes infections and is difficult to treat due to antibiotic resistance. The aim is to screen Pseudomonas strains using a micro-assay to test if the seaweed extract inhibits their growth. Seaweed extracts contain bioactive compounds and have potential pharmaceutical benefits. The proposed methodology involves culturing bacteria, analyzing growth with and without the extract, and examining changes at the DNA and carbohydrate levels to evaluate the extract's effects on bacterial exploitation and possible adaptation. The goal is to develop a cheap, effective, and environmentally friendly treatment for Pseudomonas infections.

The document describes the steps taken to design a CD cover. First, a black background was added to provide contrast for additional layers. A blue background was then placed on top of the black background but left space around the edges. Finally, the artist's name, "Trance presents...", and other details were added to make the cover look professionally designed.
This document describes the anatomy of a lymph node, including its cortex, medulla, capsule, lymphoid nodules, central vein, Hussel's corpuscles, tonsillar crypts, and stratified squamous epithelium. The lymph node contains lymphoid nodules in the cortex and medulla, surrounded by a capsule, with a central vein running through the medulla.
This diagram shows the layers of an artery and vein. Both have three layers - an inner layer called the endothelium or tunica intima, a middle layer called the media, and an outer layer called the adventitia. The main difference is that arteries have an internal elastic lamina between the inner and middle layers, while veins do not have this separating layer.
This diagram shows the structure of bone tissue, including Haversian canals containing blood vessels that run perpendicular to osteocytes embedded in the bone matrix. The diagram also depicts Volkmann's canals that run parallel to the bone and connect the Haversian canals, allowing for nutrient exchange between blood vessels and osteocytes. Bone marrow is shown within the central cavity of the bone.
This document discusses blood and bone marrow. It contains two types of cells - large lymphocytes and neutrophils. These cells are found in blood and are produced in the bone marrow.
This document describes three types of connective tissue: loose areolar connective tissue, dense regular connective tissue found in tendons, and irregular elastic connective tissue found in the aorta and ligamentum nuchae.

The document is a high-level overview of the cardiovascular system intended to provide basic information on its structure and function.
Blood is a vital bodily fluid in humans and other animals that delivers necessary substances like nutrients and oxygen to the body's cells and transports metabolic waste products away from those same cells. It has several important functions including carrying oxygen and carbon dioxide, fighting infections and diseases, regulating body temperature, and protecting against blood loss via clotting. Blood is composed of plasma, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets and is circulated by the heart to all tissues and organs by the circulatory system.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.
