DEEP LEARNING APPROACH BASED ON SUPERPIXEL SEGMENTATION ASSISTED LABELING FOR AUTOMATIC PRESSURE ULCER DIAGNOSIS.

Deep learning approach based on superpixel segmentation assisted labeling for automatic pressure ulcer diagnosis.

A pressure ulcer is an injury of the skin and underlying tissues adjacent to a bony eminence.Patients who suffer from this disease may have difficulty accessing medical care.Recently, the COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated this situation.Automatic diagnosis based on machine learning (ML) brings promising solutions.Traditional ML requires complicated

Dual DNA Transfection Using 1,6-Hexanedithiol-Conjugated Maleimide-Functionalized PU-PEI600 For Gene Correction in a Patient iPSC-Derived Fabry Cardiomyopathy Model

Non-viral gene delivery holds promises for treating inherited diseases.However, the limited cloning capacity of plasmids may hinder the co-delivery of distinct genes to the transfected cells.Previously, the conjugation of maleimide-functionalized polyurethane grafted with small molecular weight polyethylenimine (PU-PEI600-Mal) using 1,6-hexanedithi
