Derstine B, Holcombe S, Wang N, Ross B, Sullivan J, Wang S, et al.
Sci Rep . 2024 Sep; 14(1):21799. PMID: 39294201
Sarcopenia is the age-related loss of skeletal muscle mass and function. Computed tomography (CT) assessments of sarcopenia utilize measurements of skeletal muscle cross-sectional area (SMA), radiation attenuation (SMRA), and intramuscular...

Holcombe S, Huang Y, Derstine B
J Anat . 2024 Jan; 244(5):792-802. PMID: 38200705
Rib fractures remain the most frequent thoracic injury in motor vehicle crashes. Computational human body models (HBMs) can be used to simulate these injuries and design mitigation strategies, but they...

Horbal S, Derstine B, Brown E, Su G, Wang S, Holcombe S
Sci Rep . 2023 Jun; 13(1):9421. PMID: 37296154
Evidence supporting aortic calcification as a leverageable cardiovascular risk factor is rapidly growing. Given aortic calcification's potential as a clinical correlate, we assessed granular vertebral-indexed calcification measurements of the abdominal...

Holcombe S, Horbal S, Ross B, Brown E, Derstine B, Wang S
PLoS One . 2022 Nov; 17(11):e0277111. PMID: 36355794
Background: CT contrast media improves vessel visualization but can also confound calcification measurements. We evaluated variance in aorta attenuation from varied contrast-enhancement scans, and quantified expected plaque detection errors when...

Holcombe S, Derstine B
J Anat . 2022 Aug; 241(6):1344-1356. PMID: 36004686
Rib fractures are a common and serious outcome of blunt thoracic trauma and their likelihood is greater in older individuals. Osteoporotic bone loss is a well-documented aging phenomenon with sex-specific...

Derstine B, Holcombe S, Ross B, Wang N, Wang S, Su G
Sci Rep . 2022 Feb; 12(1):2374. PMID: 35149727
Measurements of visceral adipose tissue cross-sectional area and radiation attenuation from computed tomography (CT) scans provide useful information about risk and mortality. However, scan protocols vary, encompassing differing vertebra levels...

Hertz D, Chen L, Henry N, Griggs J, Hayes D, Derstine B, et al.
Br J Clin Pharmacol . 2022 Jan; 88(7):3222-3229. PMID: 35083783
Aims: Patients with low muscle mass have increased risk of paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy, which is dependent on systemic paclitaxel exposure. Dose optimization may be feasible through the secondary use of...

Horbal S, Brown E, Derstine B, Zhang P, Bidulescu A, Sullivan J, et al.
Clin Imaging . 2021 Dec; 83:51-55. PMID: 34954502
Background: Aortic wall calcification shows strong promise as a cardiovascular risk factor. While useful for visual enhancement of vascular tissue, enhancement creates heterogeneity between scans with and without contrast. We...

Tee Y, Cheng C, Hsieh C, Kang S, Fu C, Derstine B, et al.
Healthcare (Basel) . 2021 Aug; 9(8). PMID: 34442143
The severity of injury from motor vehicle crashes (MVCs) depends on complex biomechanical factors, and the bodily features of the injured person account for some of these factors. By assuming...

Lin J, Weir W, Grenda T, Zhang P, Derstine B, Enchakalody B, et al.
Semin Thorac Cardiovasc Surg . 2021 Jun; 34(3):1084-1090. PMID: 34166813
:Lung volume reduction surgery continues to have a high morbidity despite National Emphysema Treatment Trial selection criteria. This study evaluated the association between analytic morphomics on chest computed tomography scans...
