The Controversial Role of Irisin in Clinical Management of Coronary Heart Disease

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2021
Irisin, a PGC1α-dependent myokine, was once believed to have beneficial effects induced by exercise. Since its first discovery of adipose browning in 2012, multiple studies have been trying to explore the metabolic functions of irisin, such as glucose ...

Reduced-order modeling for cardiac electrophysiology. Application to parameter identification [PDF]

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Biomedical Engineering 28 (2012) 727-744, 2011
A reduced-order model based on Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) is proposed for the bidomain equations of cardiac electrophysiology. Its accuracy is assessed through electrocardiograms in various configurations, including myocardium infarctions and long-time simulations.

Comparison of 3- and 20-Gradient Direction Diffusion-Weighted Imaging in a Clinical Subacute Cohort of Patients with Transient Ischemic Attack: Application of Standard Vendor Protocols for Lesion Detection and Final Infarct Size Projection

Frontiers in Neurology, 2017
ObjectiveDiffusion tensor imaging may aid brain ischemia assessment but is more time consuming than conventional diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI). We compared 3-gradient direction DWI (3DWI) and 20-gradient direction DWI (20DWI) standard vendor protocols

Evaluation of deep learning-based myocardial infarction quantification using Segment CMR software [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
This work evaluates deep learning-based myocardial infarction (MI) quantification using Segment cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) software. Segment CMR software incorporates the expectation-maximization, weighted intensity, a priori information (EWA) algorithm used to generate the infarct scar volume, infarct scar percentage, and microvascular ...
