Incidence of Hormone-Related Cancers and Intimate Care Products Introduction In recent years, there has been an increasing concern about the safety of intimate care products that may contain potential endocrine disrupting chemicals, such as phthalates, parabens, and bisphenols. These chemicals are believed to alter endogenous hormone levels, influe...

Multicenter Prospective Study: Feasibility of Electronic Patient-Reported Outcomes (ePROs) in Elderly Cancer Patients Research Background In recent years, telemedicine has developed rapidly, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, and is considered a solution to the problem of medical personnel shortages. Electronic patient-reported outcomes (ePRO...

Background Introduction Diffusion Tensor Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DTI) is a widely used neuroimaging technique for imaging the microstructure of brain tissues and white matter tracts. However, noise in Diffusion-Weighted Images (DWI) can reduce the accuracy of microstructural parameters derived from DTI data and also necessitate longer acquisiti...

DeepDTI: High-Fidelity Six-Direction Diffusion Tensor Imaging Using Deep Learning Research Background and Motivation Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) boasts unparalleled advantages in mapping the microstructure and structural connectivity of live human brain tissue. However, traditional DTI techniques require extensive angular sampling, leading to pr...

Parkinson’s Disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disease primarily characterized by dopaminergic neuron damage. Aside from causing motor disorders, over 80% of Parkinson’s disease patients also suffer from sleep disorders. Fragmented sleep is a common type of sleep disturbance among PD patients. It is associated not only with sleep maintenance insom...

Research Report: Predictive Role of Cerebrospinal Fluid Routine Parameters in the Disease Process of Multiple Sclerosis Background Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is characterized by a highly variable and unpredictable disease course. In the diagnosis of MS, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis is often a standard procedure. However, there has been ongoing d...

The Opening of the Blood-Brain Barrier in the Nigrostriatal System in Parkinson’s Disease Research Background Parkinson’s disease is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the gradual degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta, leading to impaired dopaminergic transmission in the striatum. Currently, there are...

This is a multicenter retrospective cohort study on the impact of oral corticosteroid dosage and tapering duration on the time to first relapse in patients with initial presentation of Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein Antibody-Associated Disease (MOGAD). Background: MOGAD is a unique antibody-associated demyelinating disease. In both children an...

Circuit-Based Neuromodulation Enhances Delayed Recall Ability in Patients with Mild Cognitive Impairment Introduction As the aging population increases, amnestic mild cognitive impairment (AMCl) is receiving more attention. AMCl is seen as an important transitional stage from normal cognitive function to dementia and is a hotspot for studying cogni...

This research explores the clinical value of plasma phosphorylated tau proteins (p-tau) 217 and 181 in assessing patients with mild cognitive impairment. Mild cognitive impairment may be a precursor stage of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), and early detection and monitoring of disease progression are crucial for disease management. Research Background: A...
