76 with a sensitivity of 65%, a specificity of 85% and an accuracy of 76%. No significant discrimination was obtained considering diffusion and perfusion parameters. Considering LASSO results, the features to use as predictors were all extracted parameters except that the mean value of R2* and the best result was obtained by a LDA that obtained an AUC=0.83, with a sensitivity of 88%, a specificity of 77% and an accuracy of 83%.

Good performance to discriminate benign and malignant lesions could be obtained using BOLD and DWI derived parameters with a LDA classification approach. However, these findings should be proven on larger and several dataset with different MR scanners.

To evaluate functional, symptomatic, and diagnostic imaging outcomes after arthroscopic superior capsular reconstruction (SCR) using dermal allograft in patients with massive irreparable rotator cuff tears.

From 2015 to 2017, this multicenter study retrospectively evaluated patients undergoing arthroscopic SCR for treatment of symptomatic massive rotator cuff tears. Study criteria included the presence of a massive irreparable rotator cuff tear with retraction to the glenoid without diffuse bipolar cartilage loss, Grade 4 or 5 Hamada classification, and subscapularis pathology that could not be addressed. All SCR procedures were performed with neutral abduction of the arm at the time of implantation. Outcome measures included visual analog pain scale (VAS) score, the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score, Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation (SANE) score, and active forward elevation (FE) through 2 years postoperatively. Imaging analyses included radiographs, ultrasound, and magnetic resonanceitive clinical outcomes and may decrease graft failure rate.

Level IV, case series.

Level IV, case series.The goal of the present study was to characterize more than 500 families regarding family mealtime organization patterns. Family profiles were developed based on patterns detected across a set of sociological and psychological variables. Methylation inhibitor Latent profile analyses indicated three distinct subgroups of families Food Secure and Organized (55% of the sample), Very Low Food Security and Disorganized (27%), and Low Food Security and Organized (18%). Examination of group membership correlates revealed significant differences related to family mealtime behaviors and food preparation strategies, but not food shopping location or areas of requested change around family mealtimes. Findings highlight homogenous subgroups of families on the basis of co-occurring psychological and sociological factors pertinent to family mealtimes, with those families possessing the highest levels of risk in multiple domains also reporting family mealtime organization patterns associated with less healthy eating. Findings provide a snapshot into the organization, and complexities, of family meals for the American family today, highlighting the need for researchers and practitioners interested in promoting healthy food intake within American families to consider both psychological and sociological factors that influence family mealtime organization.This study extends the understanding of the relationship between consumer motivation, involvement and evaluation of traditional food products (TFP). One important research issue was to explore whether consumers' perceived uniqueness could be one important quality or value that theoretically and empirically could differentiate TFP from ordinary, usual and "everyday" traditional food. A central location test of two different vintages (maturation times) of salt-cured clipfish in combination with a survey to assess individual motivational constructs was used to test the conceptual model. Our expectations were confirmed. Perceived uniqueness influences future intention to consume and is motivated by involvement in TFP. The theoretical arguments of the relevance of the perceived uniqueness of traditional food was also supported by the positive relationship between general involvement in luxury (prestige) and involvement in TFP. In addition, this study found a significant positive relationship between product-specific nostalgia and involvement in TFP. To our knowledge, no previous study we are aware has discussed, designed or tested these theoretical relationships. Our findings have promising implications for the seafood industry in order to achieve unique product value and increase consumers' willingness to pay, by promoting uniqueness, prestige and nostalgic product features of vintage salt-cured clipfish.The recent application of manufactured nanomaterials (MNMs) in plant protection products (PPPs) enhances stability of the active substance (a.s.), minimizes application losses, reduces the quantities of a.s., increases coverage on leaf surface, improves precise application, etc. Besides offering benefits, there is high concern about the potential risk for human and environment associated with the use of nanopesticides. In this study, a panel of complementary methodologies were used to determine size distribution and chemical identification of four different formulations of nanopesticides. Measurements were performed by dynamic light scattering (DLS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), asymmetric field flow fractionation-multi angle light scattering (AF4-FFF-MALS), gas/liquid chromatography with mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS, LC-MS/MS) or diode array detector (HPLC-DAD) and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Results indicated average size values in the ranges 27.4-148.7 nm by DLS; 39.1-82.0 nm by AF4-FFF-MALS; and 42-90 nm by TEM. Linked to these nanosized particles both organic active ingredients and inorganic ones were identified. In addition, the obtained data revealed that all the four PPPs contained more than 50% of particles with number size distribution between 1 and 100 nm and, according to the European Commission definition, they can be defined as nanopesticides.
