Terrain and individual tree vertical structure-based approach for point clouds co-registration by UAV and Backpack LiDAR by Tingwei Zhang, Xin Shen, Lin Cao

“…Tree-level structural parameters estimation plays a key role in the researches and practice in sustainable forest management, carbon storage estimation, as well as ecological function evaluation. However, single Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) platform exhibits limitations when acquiring complete (i.e., including over-story and under-story) point cloud data for forest stands, e.g., UAV LiDAR systems tend to overlook details of the tree trunk or the lower ground, while Backpack LiDAR systems struggle to capture the treetop, etc. …”

Novel approaches to diagnostic imaging of locally advanced cervical cancer by N. G. Trukhacheva, I. G. Frolova, L. A. Kolomiets, A. V. Usova, E. G. Grigor’ev, S. A. Velichko, O. N. Churuksaeva

“…However, the use of functional mRitechniques has not yet been included in the standards. cervical cancer tissue has been found to show significantly lower diffusion-weighted imaging (dWi) values than normal cervical tissue, thus facilitating the detection of tumor and its spread. dWiis also used for differentiating changes after biopsy from residual tumor and for identifying small lymph nodes. the pEt/cttechnique combines the metabolic images of pEtwith anatomical images of ctand is more accurate than high resolution ctalone, especially in determining the involvement of regional lymph nodes and distant organs. 18-Fdg-pEt/cthas been successfully used for accurate staging of the disease (especially late stage), assessment of treatment response, radiotherapy planning, and detection of disease progression. in patients with advanced stages of cervical cancer (iiBiV stage), the 18-Fdg-pEt/ ctfindings can determine the treatment strategy in most cases, primarily due to high sensitivity (75–100 %) and specificity (87–100 %) in the detection of lymph node metastases.…”

Effect of Xingbi Gel Nasal Drops on Rats with Allergic Rhinitis Based on the Nasal Mucosa-Hippocampus Neuroimmune Mechanism by FAN Xueqi, QIU Caixia, YAN Shuiping, ZHUANG Xiangli, AI Si, GUO Lihua, ZHENG Jian

“…The AR rat behavioral scoring criteria was used to evaluate rhinitis behavior of rats; Morris water maze test was used to evaluate learning and memory function of rats; enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect serum levels of immunoglobulin E (IgE) and transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1); hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining was used to observe pathological changes of nasal mucosa and eosinophil (EOS) count; immunohistochemistry method was used to detect expression levels of non-receptor tyrosine kinases Fyn, substance P (SP), vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) and neuropeptide Y (NPY) in the hippocampus; and real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to detect mRNA transcription levels of Fyn, SP, VIP and NPY in the hippocampus.Results(1) Behavioral scores of rhinitis: compared with the normal group, behavioral scores of rhinitis were significantly higher in the model group, the traditional Chinese medicine group and the western medicine group before treatment (<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05). …”
