Effect of Asp gene on cardiac function and Erk1/2 expression in mice with acute myocardial infarction [PDF]
Objective To investigate the effect of acylation-stimulating protein(Asp) gene on cardiac function in mice with acute myocardial infarction(MI). Methods C57BL/6 wild-type mice and Asp-/- mice were divided into four groups(C57,Asp-/-,C57+MI and Asp-/-+MI)

Detecting and interpreting myocardial infarction using fully convolutional neural networks [PDF]
Objective: We aim to provide an algorithm for the detection of myocardial infarction that operates directly on ECG data without any preprocessing and to investigate its decision criteria. Approach: We train an ensemble of fully convolutional neural networks on the PTB ECG dataset and apply state-of-the-art attribution methods.

Increased mean platelet volume is associated with acute myocardial infarction in patients with diabetes mellitus type 2 [PDF]
Background: The correlation between diabetes mellitus and acute myocardial infarction is greater every day. The mean platelet volume (MPV), which is the determinant of platelet function, is an independent risk factor for the cardiovascular disease.

Differences in mitral annulus remodelling in acute anterior ST elevation and acute inferior ST elevation myocardial infarction [PDF]
Introduction. Myocardial infarction is known to account for left ventricular remodelling and mitral annular distortion. The aim of the study was to assess and compare morphometric changes of mitral annulus in patients presenting with acute anterior or ...
