Unusual case of cerebral embolism after initiation of selexipag for sarcoidosis-related pulmonary hypertension: a case report

open access: yesRadiology Case Reports, 2022
Background: Pulmonary hypertension is a rare complication of sarcoidosis. The pathogenesis of sarcoidosis-related pulmonary hypertension is multifactorial, and patients with sarcoidosis-related pulmonary hypertension can have variable treatment responses

Toward Robotically Automated Femoral Vascular Access [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Advanced resuscitative technologies, such as Extra Corporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) cannulation or Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of the Aorta (REBOA), are technically difficult even for skilled medical personnel. This paper describes the core technologies that comprise a teleoperated system capable of granting femoral vascular ...

Determinants of cardiac output in health and heart failure

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sustained physical exercise depends on delivery of oxygenated blood to exercising muscle. At least among healthy individuals, bulk transport of blood is tightly matched to metabolic demand, such that cardiac output increases by ∼6 L/min for every 1 L/min increase in oxygen uptake. Multiple factors contribute to the regulation of cardiac output,

Sensitivity analysis via the proportion of unmeasured confounding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
In observational studies, identification of ATEs is generally achieved by assuming that the correct set of confounders has been measured and properly included in the relevant models. Because this assumption is both strong and untestable, a sensitivity analysis should be performed.

Variable Selection for Causal Inference via Outcome-Adaptive Random Forest [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Estimating a causal effect from observational data can be biased if we do not control for self-selection. This selection is based on confounding variables that affect the treatment assignment and the outcome. Propensity score methods aim to correct for confounding. However, not all covariates are confounders.

3D Vortex‐Energetics in the Left Pulmonary Artery for Differentiating Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension and Pulmonary Venous Hypertension Groups Using 4D Flow MRI

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Volume 61, Issue 5, Page 2130-2143, May 2025.
Background Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a life‐threatening. Differentiation pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) from pulmonary venous hypertension (PVH) is important due to distinct treatment protocols. Invasive right heart catheterization (RHC) remains the reference standard but noninvasive alternatives are needed.

Addressing Positivity Violations in Causal Effect Estimation using Gaussian Process Priors [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
In observational studies, causal inference relies on several key identifying assumptions. One identifiability condition is the positivity assumption, which requires the probability of treatment be bounded away from 0 and 1. That is, for every covariate combination, it should be possible to observe both treated and control subjects, i.e., the covariate ...
