nt for the various derived clinical indices, leading to an accuracy of 0.92 for the disease classification on unseen data.
Prostate cancer is one of the main diseases affecting men worldwide. The Gleason scoring system is the primary diagnostic tool for prostate cancer. This is obtained via the visual analysis of cancerous patterns in prostate biopsies performed by expert pathologists, and the aggregation of the main Gleason grades in a combined score. Computer-aided diagnosis systems allow to reduce the workload of pathologists and increase the objectivity. NADPH tetrasodium salt chemical structure Nevertheless, those require a large number of labeled samples, with pixel-level annotations performed by expert pathologists, to be developed. Recently, efforts have been made in the literature to develop algorithms aiming the direct estimation of the global Gleason score at biopsy/core level with global labels. However, these algorithms do not cover the accurate localization of the Gleason patterns into the tissue. These location maps are the basis to provide a reliable computer-aided diagnosis system to the experts to be used in clinical practice by pathologists. In this btained a κ of 0.76 and 0.67 between the model and two different pathologists.
WeGleNet is capable of performing the semantic segmentation of Gleason grades similarly to fully-supervised methods without requiring pixel-level annotations. Moreover, the model reached a performance at the same level as inter-pathologist agreement for the global Gleason scoring of the cores.

Everyday occupations refer to activities that people do associated with their roles, to bring meaning and purpose to life. The occupations of non-Asian mothers of children with disabilities have been well-documented but less is known about the occupations of East Asian mothers.
This scoping review described the everyday occupations of East Asian mothers who have children with disabilities.
A well-documented five-stage framework was utilised, guided by PRISMAScR. A search was conducted across five data bases for peer-reviewed research between 2008-2020, which informed the occupations of mothers living in China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan, Korea and Vietnam.
Thirty-two articles met criteria, of which twenty-nine were qualitative studies and three were mixed-methods studies. 415 mothers were represented. The themes were doing, roles, volitional components and processes, cultural values and practices, environmental enablers, barriers and transformation, which provided rich description of various aspects of occupations of East Asian mothers, who have children with disabilities.
The everyday occupations of East Asian mothers who have children with disabilities were shaped by their cultural values. This review provided insights into mothers' activity choices and valued roles, which highlighted for practitioners in disability services, the importance of cultural awareness and sensitivity when supporting East Asian mothers and their families.

MD is associated with high morbidity and mortality rate. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) entails long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) and microRNA (miRNA). Numerous studies have reported that specific miRNAs and lncRNAs participate in multiple cellular processes, such as proliferation, migration, and tumor cell invasion. Specialized miRNAs and lncRNAs militate a similar role in MD tumor oncogenesis. Despite its growing popularity, only a few reviews are available on ncRNA in MDV tumor oncogenes. Herein, we summarized the role of the miRNAs and lncRNAs in MD tumorigenesis. Altogether, we brought forth the research issues, such as MD prevention, screening, regulatory network formation, novel miRNAs, and lncRNAs analysis in MD that needs to be explored further. This review provides a theoretical platform for the further analysis of miRNAs and lncRNAs functions and the prevention and control of MD and malignancies in domestic animals.Centre of rotation of angulation (CORA)-based levelling osteotomy (CBLO) is a recent addition to surgical procedures for stabilization of the cranial cruciate ligament-deficient canine stifle joint. Careful identification of the CORA location preoperatively and use of this location intraoperatively are required to ensure accurate correction of the tibial plateau angle. Limited data are available regarding the magnitude and source of potential errors during planning and execution of CBLO. A geometric model enabling isolation of various error sources is described. Landmarks were derived from tibial radiographs (n = 50) by 5 observers and used to define proximal and distal anatomical axes for simulation of CBLO. Observer-specific CORA locations with mean landmark data were used to assess planning errors, and simulated malpositioning of the CORA at 10 mm from the ideal location was used to assess surgical errors. Planning errors result mainly from tibial plateau misidentification, with CORA locations dispersed up to ±10 mm proximodistally from ideal (95% confidence). Malpositioning of the CORA during surgery causes equal and opposite changes in tibial plateau angle (TPA) and anatomical-mechanical axis angles, and varying degrees of translation and limb length changes. The magnitude of these changes is dependent on initial TPA and limb length, with smaller dogs and steeper tibial plateaus resulting in larger errors. Optimal planning and execution are required to achieve the planned outcome of CBLO. The main source of error in our simulation is identification of the tibial plateau. While both pre- and intraoperative errors influenced TPA, based on our geometric model the effect in larger dogs may not be clinically significant. If distalisation of the CORA is required during surgery, compensation of the CORA angle to maintain the target TPA is possible.
