Published in 2022 at "International journal for numerical methods in biomedical engineering"

DOI: 10.1002/cnm.3600

Abstract: We present the application of ReconGAN, introduced in1 , for simulating the vertebroplasty (VP) operation and its impact on the fracture response of a vertebral body. ReconGAN consists of a Deep Convolutional Generative Adversarial Network… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "International Journal for Numerical Methods in Biomedical Engineering"

DOI: 10.1002/cnm.3601

Abstract: This article presents an effort toward building an artificial intelligence (AI) assisted framework, coined ReconGAN, for creating a realistic digital twin of the human vertebra and predicting the risk of vertebral fracture (VF). ReconGAN consists… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "European Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology"

DOI: 10.1007/s00405-021-07127-3

Abstract: Skeletal muscle mass (SMM) loss and sarcopenia have been identified as risk factors for postoperative complications. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between pharyngocutaneous fistula (PCF) formation after total laryngectomy (TL)… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Journal of the mechanical behavior of biomedical materials"

DOI: 10.1016/j.jmbbm.2021.104359

Abstract: The assessment of a human vertebra's stability after a screws fixation procedure and its fracture risk is still an open clinical problem. The accurate evaluation of fracture risk requires that all fracture mechanical determinants such… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Journal of Paleontology"

DOI: 10.1017/jpa.2024.12

Abstract: Non-technical Summary. Understanding food chains in ancient ecosystems is one of the goals of paleoecology. Direct evidence for these interactions is rare and includes fossils with stomach contents and bite/tooth marks. We document a rare… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Medicine"

DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000029900

Abstract: Objective: To compare the incidence of fracture between sandwich vertebra and ordinary adjacent vertebra after percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP). Method: We analyzed 225 consecutive patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures who underwent PKP between January 2016… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Medicine"

DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000038427

Abstract: Rationale: It is difficult to reirradiate head and neck cancers because of the toxicity from previous radiation dose delivery. Conventional volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) and intensity-modulated radiation therapy often have poor target coverage. The… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases"

DOI: 10.1136/annrheumdis-2018-eular.7032

Abstract: Background Osteoporosis is a systemic skeletal disease characterised by a compromised bone resistance that predisposes a subject to an increased risk of fracture. In particular, vertebral fractures are the most common of all osteoporotic fractures.… read more here.
