Introduction: Squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck region (HNSCC), with a positive status for high oncogenic potential human papillomavirus (HR-HPV), represents a clinically distinct disease entity compared to HPV-independent cases. Patients exhibit variations in prognosis and proposed therapy regimens. A prompt and reliable diagnosis of the presence of HPV infection could optimize the treatment...
The aim of this study was to present a novel framework for the analysis of the impact of murmurs on heart sounds recorded in real clinical environment. Heart sound records were rigorously selected from the PASCAL dataset using an automated signal quality assessment algorithm. Recordings from 159 patients were analyzed for spectral differences in normal, systolic and diastolic murmurs using a Multiple...
Introduction: The perfusion of a part of the lung depends on its distance from the pulmonary trunk (differences in vascular resistance) and on the horizontal plane (differences in hydrostatic pressure). The aim of this study was to determine the geometric parameters characterising their positions and sizes in order to analyse the diffusion of the ventilation/perfusion ratio. Material and methods:...
