@pezlarson

Synthesizing medical images is now easy to do with deep learning and good datasets, but what is it good for? I've viewed this with a lot of skepticism, but have now started to accumulate some potential use cases, specifically for synthetic #PET in #PETMR
1/n

Maybe I'll start with what I think it is probably NOT good for - diagnosis!

Fundamentally, the information content in synthetic medical images is derived from the distribution and patterns in the data that the model was trained on.

2/n

For an individual patient, this means that any synthetic images created will just contain the information already in their individual (non-synthetic) images combined with population-level distributions and patterns from the training data.

Are #Amyloid and #Tau #PET positive cognitively unimpaired individuals destined to decline?

Find out in our new preprint: bit.ly/3yXRrOf.

See a thread👇1/11

A major unanswered question in the field is whether cognitively unimpaired (CU) individuals who harbor both #Alzheimer’s disease neuropathological hallmarks (abeta #plaques and tau neurofibrillary #tangles) can preserve their #cognition over time or are destined to decline. 2/11

There is fundamental disagreement about the nomenclature. E.g. a CU individual with positive Abeta (A+) and tau (T+) biomarkers is classified as “preclinical AD” by the NIA-AA criteria, while the IWG criteria would label such an individual “at risk for progression to AD”. 3/11

#sasa #petrokimya #rafineri #yumurtalık 2021 Dünya petrokimya hammadde ticaret verilerini inceleyelim. TR plastik ve türevlerinde 2021 yılında 17.5 milyar $ ithalat,10 milyar $ ihracat,organik kimyasallarda 9.3 milyar $ ithalat ,1 milyar $ ihracat gerçekleştirmiş.

#sasa 2021 yılı toplamında 27 milyar $ ithalata karşılık,11 milyar $ ihracat yapılmış ve 16 milyar $ dış ticaret açığı verilmiş.Dış ticaret açığı Dünya sıralamasında da üst sıralardayız.planlanan yatırımlar zamanın da yapılmış olsaydı,şu an çok farklı bir durumda olurduk.

#sasa #pp ürün bazlı incelediğimizde 2021 yılında 2.08 milyon ton PP ithalatı ile TR rekoru kırılmış ve 3.2 milyar $ ithalat gerçekleştirilmiş.Sasa'nın yumurtalıkta üretmeyi planladığı PP miktarı 1.2 milyon ton ve diğer firmalarda yatırımlarını yaparlarsa,PP fazlası verilecek.

ما هو #الخرف؟

هل هو مجرد نسيان؟

هل #الزهايمر هو ذاته الخرف؟

وهل يتم تشخيصه بتحاليل/أشعة طبية؟

هنالك الكثير من الخلط بما يخص الخرف بلا شك المختصين لهم دور فيه حيث تم تغيير مسمياته عدة مرات اخرها في ٢٠١٣.

سنجيب عن هذه التساؤلات في هذه السلسلة @CogNeuroKSA @SaudiAlZheimer ١/١٢

الخرف #dementia مسمى يصف مجموعة من أمراض الانتكاس العصبي والزهايمر احدى انواعه

يتصف بتدهور عقلي ليس فقط بالذاكرة ولكن قد يؤثر على التفكير والسلوك والقدرة على أداء الأنشطة اليومية

على الرغم من أن الخرف يؤثر بشكل أساسي على كبار السن إلا إنه ليس جزءًا طبيعيًا من كبر السن. ٢/١٢

يصيب الخرف ٢٠٪ من الأشخاص فوق ٨٠ سنة، و ٤٠٪ من هم بعمر ٨٥ سنة وأكبر

بفضل الله ثم تطورات الطب الحديث ازداد عدد السكان بعمر٨٠ وما فوق من ١٪ في ١٩٠٠م إلى ٤٪ من إجمالي عدد سكان العالم حالياً،

وبذلك ارتفعت عدد إصابات الخرف اليوم الى ٥٥ مليون والمتوقع ان تصل ١٣٩ مليون في ٢٠٥٠م

On Saturday, I led 30 young Community Recycling Champions to observe the #EarthDay2021 as one of the strategies in implementing the #MissionZeroPlastic initiative in #KwaraState. The CRCs #CleanUpTanke and recovered 211 Kg (5,908)
@Areai4Africa

#Recycle4Education #AREAixTCCF

5,908 #Pet #plastic were recovered from Item7, Tanke Oke - Odo to Bovas Filling Station, Tanke (3.2 Km and 7 mins walk, thanks to @googlemaps).

This shows the high level of #plasticpollution in Tanke alone.

Thanks to all #volunteers that participated in the clean-up.

#plastic

Just imagine the volume of #plastic we would have recovered if we covered the whole Tanke, #Ilorin

The #MissionZeroPlastic Initiative is proudly sponsored by the #CocaColaFoundation @TheCocaColaCo and implemented by @areai4africa @EcowarriorsNG

Misplaced #petchip owner details—worrying, right?

But it might be more important to consider what your #pet #technology does with you & your pet's data by design—it might surprise you!

a thread on our research into 🐕🐈tech & #privacy implications:

1/x

bbc.co.uk/news/technolog…

We found that most pet wearables (activity/location trackers) capture far more data of owner than pet—and tend to be vague on what pet data they capture.

But... pet data indirectly reveals information about you, and is shared with health consortia!

2/x
doi.org/10.1109/MSEC.2…

If you think data of your closest furry friend that you share your life with doesn't reflect you in detail, consider this: lots of people use dog activity trackers for joint human & doggie fitness—so your dog's activity might reveal about your health!

🚨🧠📄🍾 🤪🥳 For some reason all our papers are coming our within 2 weeks!
Here’s the latest in @GreenJournal, on the relationships between 1) patterns #tau and #amyloid PET and 2) #Alzheimer’s clinical #heterogeneity and #APOE4.

n.neurology.org/content/early/…

1/n

#Alzheimer is associated with #heterogeneous clinical presentations. Patients develop symptoms at different ages (even sporadic AD can start early) and clinical syndromes vary: not everyone shows a “typical” amnestic syndrome (which is not very sensitive nor specific to AD!)

2/n

Specific non-amnestic syndromes are often associated with AD, like #PosteriorCorticalAtrophy (PCA, the visual variant of AD) or the logopenic variant of Primary Progressive Aphasia (lvPPA).

#APOE4 is associated with an earlier onset but also a more amnestic syndrome.

We are live at @PetFedUK #virtualpetindex conference! If you weren't able to attend this talk on the £131 billion pound #pet industry, you can catch up later in the week when our recording be live on ruralpolicy.group/red

The death of the #highstreet is not universally applicable. Empty shop fronts range from 5% to circa 30%.

Future of the high street may lie in more residential and entertainment space in the centre of towns, alongside #retail.

Jack Tindale, #retail expert from @Policy_Connect

We need to re-imagine the #highstreet. #Pet businesses can offer a tactile #shopping opportunity that isn't open to other commercial entities

@Ruisaba

¿Te suena la guerra que se ha declarado al #plástico de un solo uso? Pues ha sido aprovechado de forma sobresaliente (a mi parecer) por determinadas empresas para vender otros #envases "mas verdes y #sostenibles" que no mejoran la situación (y no sé si la empeoran). Abro hilo.

Seguro que has visto que en determinadas jornadas, reuniones y otros tipos de eventos se "han colgado una medallita verde" al cambiar las típicas botellas de agua de #plástico por #briks.
¿Han acertado? ¿Este tipo de cambios hacen un evento más #sostenible? Vamos a verlo...

Spoiler: NO 😇

#PET + #CFR a great modality to evaluate patients with high #CAC

nl #CFR & perfusion very reassuring in this case with #CAC > 1000

I am embarking on my own #PaperPerDayChallenge where I read at least one paper, well, per day for a whole year. To kick start, nature.com/articles/43573… inspired by @ukrepro Reproducibility Workshop @CumberlandLodge and a talk by @MarcusMunafo

Paper #2: Hard not be cynical about advocates of reproducibile science given most have careers built on the very questionable practices they wish to stamp out, so great to see @russpoldrack tackling this head on and offering great advice along the way 👍 ac.els-cdn.com/S0896627318310…

Paper #3 - false positives from multiple testing in anovas and importance of distinguishing exploratory and confirmatory hypotheses — also I thought anovas corrected for Multiple testing and this paper shows so too do many others, I’m not the only idiot! link.springer.com/content/pdf/10…
