Health‐related quality of life following total minimally invasive, hybrid minimally invasive or open oesophagectomy: a population‐based cohort study

BJS (British Journal of Surgery), EarlyView., 2020
All patients operated for oesophageal cancer in Sweden from 2013 to April 2018 were identified, and 246 patients were recruited to this population‐based nationwide Swedish study. The results show that longitudinal health‐related quality of life after minimally invasive oesophagectomy was similar to that of the open surgical approach.

Calmodulinopathy: Functional Effects of CALM Mutations and Their Relationship With Clinical Phenotypes

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2018
In spite of the widespread role of calmodulin (CaM) in cellular signaling, CaM mutations lead specifically to cardiac manifestations, characterized by remarkable electrical instability and a high incidence of sudden death at young age.

Convolutional neural network for classification of eight types of arrhythmia using 2D time–frequency feature map from standard 12-lead electrocardiogram

Scientific Reports, 2021
Electrocardiograms (ECGs) are widely used for diagnosing cardiac arrhythmia based on the deformation of signal shapes due to changes in various heart diseases.

Cardiac Adipose Tissue Segmentation via Image-Level Annotations [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
Automatically identifying the structural substrates underlying cardiac abnormalities can potentially provide real-time guidance for interventional procedures. With the knowledge of cardiac tissue substrates, the treatment of complex arrhythmias such as atrial fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia can be further optimized by detecting arrhythmia ...

Using skewness and the first-digit phenomenon to identify dynamical transitions in cardiac models [PDF]

Frontiers in Physiology 6, 390 (2016), 2015
Disruptions in the normal rhythmic functioning of the heart, termed as arrhythmia, often result from qualitative changes in the excitation dynamics of the organ. The transitions between different types of arrhythmia are accompanied by alterations in the spatiotemporal pattern of electrical activity that can be measured by observing the time-intervals ...

QT and Tpeak‐Tend interval variability: Predictive electrical markers of hospital stay length and mortality in acute decompensated heart failure. Preliminary data

Clinical Cardiology, Volume 45, Issue 12, Page 1192-1198, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background As previously reported, an increased repolarization temporal imbalance induces a higher risk of total/cardiovascular mortality. Hypothesis The aim of this study was to assess if the electrocardiographic short period markers of repolarization temporal dispersion could be predictive of the hospital stay length and mortality in ...

Heart arrhythmias and conduction disorders in patients with acromegaly: the role of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging

Терапевтический архив, 2020
Cardiovascular complications including arrhythmias and cardiac conduction disorders are one of the main reasons of high mortality rate in acromegaly, while they have not been well explored. Aim.To estimate arrhythmias frequency in acromegaly, identify

Proarrhythmia associated with antiarrhythmic drugs: a comprehensive disproportionality analysis of the FDA adverse event reporting system

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
Objective: This study aimed to identify the different associations between antiarrhythmic drugs (AADs) and arrhythmias, and to determine whether pharmacokinetic drug interactions involving AADs increase the risk of AAD-related arrhythmias compared to ...
