We provided one of the largest datasets with purely experimental log kp and developed reliable and accurate prediction models for screening active ingredients and seeking unsynthesized compounds of dermatological medicines and cosmetics.
To evaluate the accuracy of commercially available hybrid deformable image registration (DIR) algorithms when using planning CT (pCT) and daily cone‐beam computed tomography (CBCT) in radiation therapy for prostate cancer. The hybrid DIR algorithms in RayStation and MIM Maestro were evaluated. Contours of the prostate, bladder, rectum, and seminal vesicles (SVs) were used as region‐of‐interest (ROIs) to guide image deformation in the hybrid DIR and to compare the DIR accuracy. To evaluate robustness of the hybrid DIR for prostate cancer patients with organs with volume that vary on a daily basis, such as the bladder and rectum, the DIR algorithms were performed on ten pairs of CT volumes from ten patients who underwent prostate intensity‐modulated radiation therapy or volumetric modulated arc therapy. In a visual evaluation, MIM caused unrealistic image deformation in soft tissues, organs, and pelvic bones. The mean dice similarity coefficient (DSC) ranged from 0.46 to 0.90 for the prostate, bladder, rectum, and SVs; the SVs had the lowest DSC. Target registration error (TRE) at the centroid of the ROIs was about 2 mm for the prostate and bladder, and about 6 mm for the rectum and SVs. RayStation did not cause unrealistic image deformation, and could maintain the shape of pelvic bones in most cases. The mean DSC and TRE at the centroid of the ROIs were about 0.9 and within 5 mm generally. In both software programs, the use of ROIs to guide image deformation had the possibility to reduce any unrealistic image deformation and might be effective to keep the DIR physically reasonable. The pCT/CBCT DIR for the prostate cancer did not reduce the DIR accuracy because of the use of ROIs to guide the image deformation.
Consecutive cyclization of allylaminoalkenes by tandem aminolithiation-carbolithiation proceeded smoothly by using a lithium amide as a lithiating agent as well as protonating agent to give bicyclic amines, octahydroindolizine and hexahydro-1 H-pyrrolizine, in reasonably high yield and diastereoselectivity.
Our high-performance prediction model offers an attractive alternative to permeability experiments for pharmaceutical and cosmetic candidate screening and optimizing skin-permeable topical formulations.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
