Midlife Insulin Resistance as a Predictor for Late-Life Cognitive Function and Cerebrovascular Lesions
Background: Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) increases the risk for Alzheimer's disease (AD) but not for AD neuropathology. The association between T2DM and AD is assumed to be mediated through vascular mechanisms. However, insulin ...
Bupropion Causes Misdiagnosis in Brain Dopamine Transporter Imaging for Parkinsonism
<p>Objective: The objective of this study was to report long-lasting effects
of bupropion on brain dopamine transporter (DAT) in a patient with depression and parkinsonism.
Methods: The patient was a 52-year old man who ...
Femoral Bone Marrow Insulin Sensitivity Is Increased by Resistance Training in Elderly Female Offspring of Overweight and Obese Mothers
<h2>Abstract</h2><a>-</a><p>Bone marrow insulin sensitivity may be an important factor for bone health in addition to bone mineral density especially in insulin resistant conditions. First we aimed to study if prenatal ...
Imaging of Tumor Hypoxia With F-18-EF5 PET/MRI in Cervical Cancer
<p>Purpose of the Report<br>The aim of this study was to evaluate the distribution of hypoxia using 18F-EF5 as a hypoxia tracer in cervical cancer patients with PET/MRI. We investigated the association between this 18F-EF5-PET ...
MR signal-fat-fraction analysis and T2*weighted imaging measure BAT reliably on humans without cold exposure
Objective. Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is compositionally distinct from white adipose tissue (WAT) in terms of triglyceride and water content. In adult humans, the most significant BAT depot is localized in the supraclavicular ...
Accuracy of echocardiographic area-length method in chronic myocardial infarction: comparison with cardiac CT in pigs
Background: We evaluated echocardiographic area-length methods to measure left ventricle (LV) volumes and ejection fraction (EF) in parasternal short axis views in comparison with cardiac computed tomography (CT) in pigs ...
Targeting of vascular adhesion protein-1 by positron emission tomography visualizes sites of inflammation in Borrelia burgdorferi-infected mice
Background: In the present study, we sought to evaluate the feasibility of targeting vascular adhesion protein-1 (VAP-1) by positron emission tomography (PET) for the longitudinal quantitative assessment of Borrelia ...
