A new set of diagnostic criteria for MAFLD has been developed, providing accurate and reliable diagnoses. This development has increased awareness of the disease and paved the way for further research and clinical trials, offering a significant step forward in diagnosing and treating MAFLD.
A new paradigm of metal electron-shuttle catalysis has been proposed by USTC researchers to overcome challenges in alkene difunctionalization reactions. This approach uses a nickel catalyst as an electron shuttle to initiate and quench radicals, avoiding unstable alkyl-metal intermediates.
Researchers found that half of patients need only five tablets or fewer of morphine to manage acute pain, varying by condition. The study aims to adapt opioid prescriptions according to patient need and reduce long-term misuse.
Researchers developed A-CensNet, a fusion model predicting cognitive scores from movie-watching fMRI and eye-tracking data. The model outperforms individual modalities and leading techniques, suggesting synergy between brain functionality and behavior.
A new study found that islet transplantation significantly reduces the risk of kidney transplant failure and mortality in patients with type 1 diabetes. The study compared the long-term outcomes of patients who received an islet transplantation with those who underwent kidney transplantation and managed their diabetes with insulin alone.
Researchers at the University of Tokyo have developed a new technique to protect sensitive AI-based applications from attackers. By adding random noise to the inner layers of neural networks, they improved the resilience of these systems. This approach promotes greater adaptability and reduces susceptibility to simulated adversarial at...
