Contemporary Management of Patients With Chagas Cardiomyopathy in Bolivia

JACC: Advances
Background: Chagas cardiomyopathy (CCM) is the debilitating result of a parasitic infection that causes structural and electrical abnormalities. Yet, optimal CCM management is challenging in the resource-poor communities where it predominates. Objectives:

Comparison of DeePMD, MTP, GAP, ACE and MACE Machine‐Learned Potentials for Radiation‐Damage Simulations: A User Perspective

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
The authors evaluated six machine‐learned interatomic potentials for simulating threshold displacement energies and tritium diffusion in LiAlO2 essential for tritium production. Trained on the same density functional theory data and benchmarked against traditional models for accuracy, stability, displacement energies, and cost, Moment Tensor Potential ...

Influence of radiotherapy on the latest generation of pacemakers

, 2005
The influence of radiotherapy on 19 new, modern pacemakers has been determined. Seven pacemakers lost output at 120 Gy. Eight pacemakers showed inhibitions during irradiation in the direct beam. Five pacemakers did not show any malfunction at all.

Parametric Analysis of Spiking Neurons in 16 nm Fin Field‐Effect Transistor Technology

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
Energy efficient computing has driven a shift toward brain‐inspired neuromorphic hardware. This study explores the design of three distinct silicon neuron topologies implemented in 16 nm fin field‐Effect transistor technology. While the Axon‐Hillock design achieves gigahertz throughput, its functional fragility persists. The Morris–Lecar model captures

High‐Resolution Deep Learning Dixon Magnetic Resonance Imaging of the Sacroiliac Joints Is Noninferior to Standard Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Patients With Suspected Axial Spondyloarthritis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective To compare the multisequence standard magnetic resonance imaging (sMRI) protocol of the sacroiliac joints with a single high‐resolution deep learning–reconstructed Dixon sequence (DL‐Dixon) in patients with suspected axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA). Methods Seventy‐six patients with chronic low back pain and suspected axSpA underwent clinical,
