Choroidal neovascularization (CNV) generally occurs at the late stage of senile macular degeneration (AMD),and accurate segmentation of CNV in optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) is of great significance for the diagnosis and treatment of AMD.This paper proposes a CNV multi-task segmentation network that combines time series model and attention m
Horticultural supply chain network design of small and medium-sized enterprises
This study investigates supply chain networks of small and medium-sized companies in the ornamental plants, perennials and cut flowers business in non-auction-driven markets such as Germany, and formulates a mathematical model depicting prevalent network design options.The results are based on an embedded multiple case study featuring in-depth expe
3D bioprinting of liver models: A systematic scoping review of methods, bioinks, and reporting quality
Background: Effective communication is crucial for broad acceptance and applicability of alternative methods in 3R biomedical research and preclinical testing.3D PULLOVER bioprinting is used to construct intricate biological structures towards functional liver models, specifically engineered for deployment as alternative models in drug screening, t
DICKINSARTELLA FAUNA FROM THE SAIWAN FORMATION (OMAN): A BIVALVE FAUNA TESTIFYING TO THE LATE SAKMARIAN (EARLY PERMIAN) CLIMATIC AMELIORATION ALONG THE NORTH-EASTERN GONDWANAN FRINGE.
The transitional faunas of the Permian Huqf succession of Oman make it one of the key-sections for the intercalibration of Early to Middle Permian biostratigraphical scales.The abundance of fossils improved the knowledge of some marine faunas which populated the Stainless Steel Knob North-Eastern Gondwanan fringe during times of climatic changes in
