Assessing Bilateral Neurovascular Bundles Function with Pulsed Wave Doppler Ultrasound: Implications for Reducing Erectile Dysfunction Following Prostate Radiotherapy [PDF]
This study aims to evaluate the functional status of bilateral neurovascular bundles (NVBs) using pulsed wave Doppler ultrasound in patients undergoing prostate radiotherapy (RT). Sixty-two patients (mean age: 66.1 +/- 7.2 years) underwent transrectal ultrasound scan using a conventional ultrasound scanner, a 7.5 MHz bi-plane probe and a mechanical ...

Pattern of Cardiovascular Diseases Among Elderly Patients Admitted in Medical Wards at Muhimbili National Hospital Dar es salaam Tanzania [PDF]
Cardiovascular disease is the most frequent cause of death in persons over the age 50 years and most importantly it is responsible for considerable morbidity and large burden of disability in the community. Cardiovascular diseases are an increasing cause

Electromechanical Dynamics of the Heart: A Study of Cardiac Hysteresis During Physical Stress Test [PDF]
Cardiovascular diseases are best diagnosed using multiple modalities that assess both the heart's electrical and mechanical functions. While effective, imaging techniques like echocardiography and nuclear imaging are costly and not widely accessible. More affordable technologies, such as simultaneous electrocardiography (ECG) and phonocardiography (PCG)

Differentiation between Systolic and Diastolic Dysfunction [PDF]
Left ventricular (LV) failure can be divided into systolic and diastolic dysfunction. The former is characterized by a reduced ejection fraction and an enlarged LV chamber, the latter by an increased resistance to filling with increased filling pressures.

SepsisCalc: Integrating Clinical Calculators into Early Sepsis Prediction via Dynamic Temporal Graph Construction [PDF]
Sepsis is an organ dysfunction caused by a deregulated immune response to an infection. Early sepsis prediction and identification allow for timely intervention, leading to improved clinical outcomes. Clinical calculators (e.g., the six-organ dysfunction assessment of SOFA) play a vital role in sepsis identification within clinicians' workflow ...

rPPG-SysDiaGAN: Systolic-Diastolic Feature Localization in rPPG Using Generative Adversarial Network with Multi-Domain Discriminator [PDF]
Remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) offers a novel approach to noninvasive monitoring of vital signs, such as respiratory rate, utilizing a camera. Although several supervised and self-supervised methods have been proposed, they often fail to accurately reconstruct the PPG signal, particularly in distinguishing between systolic and diastolic components.

An Improved Approach for Cardiac MRI Segmentation based on 3D UNet Combined with Papillary Muscle Exclusion [PDF]
Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is the most important clinical parameter of cardiovascular function. The accuracy in estimating this parameter is highly dependent upon the precise segmentation of the left ventricle (LV) structure at the end diastole and systole phases.
