Identification of the regulatory mechanism of ACE2 in COVID-19-induced kidney damage with systems genetics approach
Description
Studies showed that SARS-CoV-2 can directly target the kidney and induce renal damage. As the cell surface receptor for SARS-CoV-2 infection, the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) plays a pivotal role for renal physiology and function. Thus, it
Impact of monocyte-related modulators and kidney function on mortality in hospitalized patients with COVID-19

Improvement of CNR in low-count PET scans using tissue-scattered data as initial estimate in non-TOF MLEM reconstruction
Description
We have proposed a method to improve contrast-to-noise ratios (CNRs) of lesions in low-count PET scans using the rejected single scattered (inside tissue) data. Indeed, with the advent of high-quality detectors regarding their energy and time
