NON ISCHEMIC CARDIOMYOPATHY – A CASE REPORT
Cardiomyopathies are a group of diseases characterized by the structural and functional abnormalities of the heart muscles in the absence of other illnesses that might be responsible for the observed myocardial anomaly.

Non-inferiority of Deep Learning Acute Ischemic Stroke Segmentation on Non-Contrast CT Compared to Expert Neuroradiologists [PDF]
To determine if a convolutional neural network (CNN) deep learning model can accurately segment acute ischemic changes on non-contrast CT compared to neuroradiologists. Non-contrast CT (NCCT) examinations from 232 acute ischemic stroke patients who were enrolled in the DEFUSE 3 trial were included in this study.

Prognostic implications of left ventricular global longitudinal strain in heart failure patients with narrow QRS complex treated with cardiac resynchronization therapy: a subanalysis of the randomized EchoCRT trial [PDF]
Aim: Left ventricular (LV) global longitudinal strain (GLS) reflects LV systolic function and correlates inversely with the extent of LV myocardial scar and fibrosis.

Chemical Proteomics Reveals Protein Tyrosination Extends Beyond the Alpha‐Tubulins in Human Cells**
Protein post‐translational modifications allow cells to swiftly adjust activity and localization of proteins. Here, we developed a chemical proteomic approach to determine a protein tyrosination status using an O‐propargyl tyrosine probe. We show that tyrosination modifies previously described alpha‐tubulins with ‐EEY C‐terminal sequence together with ...

Spatio-Temporal Segmentation in 3D Echocardiographic Sequences using Fractional Brownian Motion [PDF]
An important aspect for an improved cardiac functional analysis is the accurate segmentation of the left ventricle (LV). A novel approach for fully-automated segmentation of the LV endocardium and epicardium contours is presented. This is mainly based on the natural physical characteristics of the LV shape structure.

Predictors and morphological properties of culprit healed plaques in patients with angina pectoris
Abstract Background Plaque healing may serve a vital function in the natural progression of atherosclerotic disease. This study sought to investigate predictors and morphological characteristics of healed plaque (HP) among angina pectoris (AP) patients.

CORONARY ANGIOPLASTY AND STENTING IN PATIENTS WITH ISCHEMIC CARDIOMYOPATHY
Multiple coronary artery atherosclerotic lesions are a major cause of ischemic cardiomyopathy. Myocardial revascularization in patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy in the presence of the viable myocardium and/or ischemic areas leads to improved central ...
