Feline Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy: A Spontaneous Large Animal Model of Human HCM. [PDF]

, 2017
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a common disease in pet cats, affecting 10-15% of the pet cat population. The similarity to human HCM, the rapid progression of disease, and the defined and readily determined endpoints of feline HCM make it an ...

Learning Individualized Cardiovascular Responses from Large-scale Wearable Sensors Data [PDF]

arXiv, 2018
We consider the problem of modeling cardiovascular responses to physical activity and sleep changes captured by wearable sensors in free living conditions. We use an attentional convolutional neural network to learn parsimonious signatures of individual cardiovascular response from data recorded at the minute level resolution over several months on a ...

Accounting for TLD response to CBCT protocols in external beam radiotherapy dose monitoring

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose LiF thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs) are commonly used in radiation therapy to verify the delivered dose. Examples include dose verification for complicated treatment setups or cardiovascular implantable electronic devices (CIEDs). TLDs may be present for both the pre‐treatment imaging kilovoltage (kV) beam and the megavoltage (MV ...

UR‐cycleGAN: Denoising full‐body low‐dose PET images using cycle‐consistent Generative Adversarial Networks

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study aims to develop a CycleGAN based denoising model to enhance the quality of low‐dose PET (LDPET) images, making them as close as possible to standard‐dose PET (SDPET) images. Methods Using a Philips Vereos PET/CT system, whole‐body PET images of fluorine‐18 fluorodeoxyglucose (18F‐FDG) were acquired from 37 patients to ...

Smartphone-Based Test and Predictive Models for Rapid, Non-Invasive, and Point-of-Care Monitoring of Ocular and Cardiovascular Complications Related to Diabetes [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
Among the most impactful diabetic complications are diabetic retinopathy, the leading cause of blindness among working class adults, and cardiovascular disease, the leading cause of death worldwide. This study describes the development of improved machine learning based screening of these conditions.

Estimating the association between blood pressure variability and cardiovascular disease: An application using the ARIC Study [PDF]

, 2018
The association between visit-to-visit systolic blood pressure variability and cardiovascular events has recently received a lot of attention in the cardiovascular literature. But blood pressure variability is usually estimated on a person-by-person basis, and is therefore subject to considerable measurement error.

Clinical Phenotyping of Long COVID Patients Evaluated in a Specialized Neuro‐COVID Clinic

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To report Long COVID characteristics and longitudinal courses of patients evaluated between 4/14/21–4/14/22 at the University of Pennsylvania Neurological COVID Clinic (PNCC), including clinical symptoms, neurological examination findings, and neurocognitive screening tests from a standardized PNCC neurological evaluation approach ...

Long‐Term Survival, Burden of Disease, and Patient‐Centered Outcomes in Maximally Treated Intracerebral Hemorrhage

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Increasing evidence shows that patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) can achieve better‐than‐expected outcomes with aggressive therapy. However, real‐world long‐term data, patient‐centered outcomes, and societal measures after maximal ICH treatment are lacking.

Threshold Values of Sleep Spindles Features in Healthy Adults Using Scalp‐EEG and Associations With Sleep Parameters

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Sleep spindles are an electrophysiological fingerprint of the sleeping human brain. They can be described in terms of duration, frequency, amplitude, and density, and vary widely according to age and sex. Spindles play a role in sleep and wake functions and are altered in several neurological and psychiatric disorders.

Stochastic Modelling and Dynamic Analysis of Cardiovascular System with Rotary Left Ventricular Assist Devices [PDF]

Mathematical Problems in Engineering, 2018, 2018
The left ventricular assist device (LVAD) has been used for end-stage heart failure patients as a therapeutic option. The aortic valve plays a critical role in heart failure and its treatment with LVAD. The cardiovascular-LVAD model is often used to investigate the physiological demands required by patients and predict the hemodynamic of the native ...
