TLDR
In this paper, the authors proposed a fully automatic pipeline to predict the biological age and health of the placenta based on a free-breathing rapid (sub-30 second) T2* scan in two steps: automatic segmentation using a U-Net and a Gaussian process regression model to characterize placental maturation and health.

A Bootstrap Self-training Method for Sequence Transfer: State-of-the-Art Placenta Segmentation in fetal MRI

TL;DR: In this article, a new method for bootstrapping automatic placenta segmentation by deep learning on different MRI sequences is presented, which consists of automatic segmentation with two networks trained on labeled cases of one sequence followed by automatic adaptation using self-training of the same network to a new sequence with new unlabeled cases of this sequence.

SCU-Net++: A Nested U-Net Based on Sharpening Filter and Channel Attention Mechanism

TL;DR: An improved semantic segmentation model utilizing channel attention mechanism and Laplacian sharpening filter is proposed for SCU-Net++: dense skip connections are redesigned with sharpening filters to ease the semantic gaps, and channel attention modules are used to make the model pay more attention on the feature maps that are useful for the pixel-level classification task.

The Role of Inorganics in Preeclampsia Assessed by Multiscale Multimodal Characterization of Placentae

TL;DR: It is suggested that heavy metals, combined with other factors, can be associated with the development of preeClampsia, however, with no obvious correlation between calcifications and preeclampsia.

Micro-haemodynamics at the maternal–fetal interface: experimental, theoretical and clinical perspectives

TL;DR: The placenta is a vital interface between the mother and her developing fetus, where the particulate nature of blood flow cannot be ignored, mediating the relationship between the organ's structure and its function as mentioned in this paper .

Adam: A Method for Stochastic Optimization

TL;DR: This work introduces Adam, an algorithm for first-order gradient-based optimization of stochastic objective functions, based on adaptive estimates of lower-order moments, and provides a regret bound on the convergence rate that is comparable to the best known results under the online convex optimization framework.

Ror2 signaling regulates Golgi structure and transport through IFT20 for tumor invasiveness

TL;DR: It is found that intraflagellar transport 20 mediates the ability of Ror2 signaling to induce the invasiveness of tumors that lack primary cilia, and IFT20 regulates the nucleation of Golgi-derived microtubules by affecting the GM130-AKAP450 complex.
