Towards Automated Keratoconus Screening Approach using Lateral Segment Photographed Images

AbstractLiver abscess requiring drainage is conventionally managed by interventional radiology-guided percutaneous drainage (PCD). Radiologically inaccessible abscesses are managed with laparoscopic or open surgery, which carries high rates of morbidity and mortality.EUS-guided transluminal liver abscess drainage is minimally invasive and can be an alternative approach for caudate lobe, segment 4, and left lateral segment abscesses. We report on three consecutive patients with radiologically inaccessible left lobe liver abscess involving the caudate lobe, segment 4, and lateral segment in whom EUS-guided transluminal drainage using a modified technique was successful.

Pearson’S Correlation Analysis

Background The Symbol Digit Modalities Test (SDMT) is the gold standard for cognitive screening in multiple sclerosis (MS). Objective Due to the recent COVID-19 pandemic and the increased need for virtual clinical visits, we examined the reliability of remote administration of the SDMT vs. standard in-person administration to individuals with MS. Methods Pearson’s correlation analysis was performed between SDMT scores on the in-person and remote administrations. Results For n = 132 participants, remote and in-person SDMT scores were strongly correlated (r = .80, p = .000). Conclusion Remote administration of the SDMT is a reliable cognitive screening approach in MS.
