DOI: 10.1002/jmv.24693
Abstract: China is commonly considered to be a HEV‐endemic region but limited epidemiological data for HEV among farmers and veterinarians are available. Thus, a case‐control study was carried out to detect the seroprevalence and assess potential… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00535-021-01838-4
Abstract: Potential etiological mechanisms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) have been reported, and emerging data suggest that immune activation is present in a major subset of IBS, especially in those with diarrhea. Intestinal mucosal mast cell… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10633-019-09720-8
Abstract: Purpose To propose a new method of identifying clusters in multifocal electrophysiology (multifocal electroretinogram: mfERG; multifocal visual-evoked potential: mfVEP) that conserve the maximum capacity to discriminate between patients and control subjects. Methods The theoretical framework… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.biopsych.2016.06.023
Abstract: BACKGROUND There is well-known heterogeneity in affective mechanisms in depression that may extend to positive affect. We used data-driven parsing of neural connectivity to reveal subgroups present across depressed and healthy individuals during positive processing,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.clinbiomech.2018.06.006
Abstract: Background: Ankylosing spondylitis is a degenerative and inflammatory rheumatologic disorder that primarily affects the spine. Delayed diagnosis leads to debilitating spinal damage. This study examines biomechanical properties of non‐contracting (resting) human lower lumbar myofascia in… read more here.
