Projects and priorities in cardiovascular modeling
Studies that either 1) model the likelihood of clinical outcomes as a function of patient characteristics, or 2) examine the factors underlying a specific medical decision are discussed. Although the currently available models represent important contributions, the working group that met during the 1987 Regenstrief Conference identified several ...

An ensemble solver for segregated cardiovascular FSI [PDF]
Computational models are increasingly used for diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular disease. To provide a quantitative hemodynamic understanding that can be effectively used in the clinic, it is crucial to quantify the variability in the outputs from these models due to multiple sources of uncertainty.

Study on the effectiveness of AutoML in detecting cardiovascular disease [PDF]
Cardiovascular diseases are widespread among patients with chronic noncommunicable diseases and are one of the leading causes of death, including in the working age. The article presents the relevance of the development and application of patient-oriented systems, in which machine learning (ML) is a promising technology that allows predicting ...

The cardiovascular safety of incretin-based therapies: a review of the evidence [PDF]
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in people with diabetes and therefore managing cardiovascular (CV) risk is a critical component of diabetes care. As incretin-based therapies are effective recent additions to the

The effect of adherence to statin therapy on cardiovascular mortality : quantification of unmeasured bias using falsification end-points [PDF]
Background: To determine the clinical effectiveness of statins on cardiovascular mortality in practice, observational studies are needed. Control for confounding is essential in any observational study. Falsification end-points may be useful to determine

Mechanical modeling of the maturation process for tissue-engineered implants: application to biohybrid heart valves [PDF]
The development of tissue-engineered cardiovascular implants can improve the lives of large segments of our society who suffer from cardiovascular diseases. Regenerative tissues are fabricated using a process called tissue maturation. Furthermore, it is highly challenging to produce cardiovascular regenerative implants with sufficient mechanical ...

Machine Learning Framework to Identify Individuals at Risk of Rapid Progression of Coronary Atherosclerosis: From the PARADIGM Registry. [PDF]
Background Rapid coronary plaque progression (RPP) is associated with incident cardiovascular events. To date, no method exists for the identification of individuals at risk of RPP at a single point in time.
