Contrast‐enhanced CT—Nephrotoxic or not? A critical review of propensity‐score‐adjusted studies

Journal of Internal Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Retrospective, propensity‐score‐adjusted (PSA) studies have indicated to practitioners in the field that contrast‐induced acute kidney injury (AKI) after contrast‐enhanced CT (CECT) is of minor importance or even non‐existent. This has led to controversies between clinicians demanding CECT not to miss any diagnoses and radiologists reluctant ...

NT‐proBNP as a Predictor of Atrial Fibrillation Recurrence After Cryoballoon, Radiofrequency and Pulsed‐Field Ablation

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
Central Illustration: In a study investigating AF recurrence after PVI with RFA, CBA, and PFA, elevated NT‐proBNP emerged as a strong predictor of recurrence within the first year, outperforming other clinical measures. Color‐coded recurrence‐free survival probability charts derived from these data are proposed to support individualized clinical ...

Carotid artery dissection linked to intermittent apnoeic swimming: A case–control study

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Internal carotid artery (ICA) dissection is a rare and potentially devastating cause of cerebral ischaemia, initiated by an intimal tear or rupture of the vasa vasorum, that can lead to an intraluminal thrombus, vascular stenosis, occlusion, or dissecting aneurysm formation.

Computational analysis to assess hemodynamic forces in descending thoracic aortic aneurysms

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Left: Pre‐processing. First, we perform the segmentation of the Computer Tomography angiorgraphy (angio‐CT) scans of a healthy patient, obtaining the surface of a healthy thoracic aorta with a Type III aortic arch. Then, we build nine ideal configurations with Descending Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm (DTAA), varying the aortic arch ...

Automatic calcium scoring in low-dose chest CT using deep neural networks with dilated convolutions

, 2018
Heavy smokers undergoing screening with low-dose chest CT are affected by cardiovascular disease as much as by lung cancer. Low-dose chest CT scans acquired in screening enable quantification of atherosclerotic calcifications and thus enable ...
