Getting to the Heart of the Matter Evaluation Report: Post-Acute Cardiac Rehabilitation Program to Reduce Hospital Readmissions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Launched in 2013, this innovative program was designed to help cardiac patients achieve success with their post-acute treatment regime, something that is especially important for older cardiac patients who are at an increased risk for complications.

Factors associated with prolonged length of stay following cardiac surgery in a major referral hospital in Oman: a retrospective observational study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Two objectives were set for this study. The first was to identify factors influencing prolonged postoperative length of stay (LOS) following cardiac surgery. The second was to devise a predictive model for prolonged LOS in the cardiac intensive care unit

A Bootstrap Machine Learning Approach to Identify Rare Disease Patients from Electronic Health Records [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2016
Rare diseases are very difficult to identify among large number of other possible diagnoses. Better availability of patient data and improvement in machine learning algorithms empower us to tackle this problem computationally. In this paper, we target one such rare disease - cardiac amyloidosis.

Cardiac progenitor cells. The matrix has you [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Components of the cardiac extracellular matrix (ECM) are synthesized by residing cells and are continuously remodeled by them. Conversely, residing cells (including primitive cells) receive constant biochemical and mechanical signals from the ECM that ...

Biologically‐Inspired Melt Electrowriting for the Generation of Highly Biomimetic Functional Myocardium

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In this work, melt electrowriting is used to fabricate a 3D printed scaffold design that generates engineered cardiac tissues with in‐plane contraction, mimicking natural myocardium. It is shown that these tissues display advanced maturation and functionality.

Joint analysis of clinical risk factors and 4D cardiac motion for survival prediction using a hybrid deep learning network [PDF]

open access: yesNeurIPS 2019, Medical Imaging meets NIPS, 2019
In this work, a novel approach is proposed for joint analysis of high dimensional time-resolved cardiac motion features obtained from segmented cardiac MRI and low dimensional clinical risk factors to improve survival prediction in heart failure.

The Memory of the Heart

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2018
The embryological development of the heart is one of the most fascinating phenomena in nature and so is its final structure and function. The various ontogenetic passages form the evolutive basis of the final configuration of the heart. Each key step can
