… toxin also caused a significant down-regulation of visfatin/PBEF/Nampt mRNA, the effect
of isoprenaline on visfatin/PBEF/Nampt synthesis is probably mediated via a classical G s -…

We present a supervised deep learning method to automatically segment 3D volumes of
biomedical image data. The presented method takes advantage of a neural network with the …

Objective Cross-sectional studies have shown that spinal cord volume (SCV) loss is related
to disease severity in multiple sclerosis (MS). However, long-term data are lacking. Our aim …

We analyze the performance of multi-dimensional gated recurrent units on automated lesion
segmentation in multiple sclerosis. The segmentation of these pathologic structures is not …

Chi-square test with Yate’s continuity correction. Between-group differences in regard to …

Circulating NAMPT (PBEF/visfatin) has pleiotropic functions and is secreted from adipocytes.
Since it is doubtful whether serum levels can be explained by secretion from adipocytes …

In addition to the genetic framework, there are two other critical requirements for the
development of tissue-specific autoimmune disease. First, autoreactive T cells need to escape …
