Do patients with suspected heart failure and preserved left ventricular systolic function suffer from "diastolic heart failure" or from misdiagnosis? A prospective descriptive study [PDF]

, 2000
OBJECTIVES: To characterise the clinical features of patients with suspected heart failure but preserved left ventricular systolic function to determine if they have other potential causes for their symptoms rather than being diagnosed with 'diastolic ...

Underweight and obesity are related to higher mortality in patients undergoing coronary angiography: The KARDIO invasive cardiology register study

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 100, Issue 7, Page 1242-1251, December 1, 2022., 2022
Abstract Background In patients with some cardiovascular disease conditions, slightly elevated body mass index (BMI) is associated with a lower mortality risk (termed “obesity paradox”). It is uncertain, however, if this obesity paradox exists in patients who have had invasive cardiology procedures.

Deep Learning for Cardiologist-level Myocardial Infarction Detection in Electrocardiograms [PDF]

, 2019
Myocardial infarction is the leading cause of death worldwide. In this paper, we design domain-inspired neural network models to detect myocardial infarction. First, we study the contribution of various leads. This systematic analysis, first of its kind in the literature, indicates that out of 15 ECG leads, data from the v6, vz, and ii leads are ...

Investigating myocardial infarction and its effects in patients with urgent medical problems using advanced data mining tools [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
In medical science, it is very important to gather multiple data on different diseases and one of the most important objectives of the data is to investigate the diseases. Myocardial infarction is a serious risk factor in mortality and in previous studies, the main emphasis has been on people with heart disease and measuring the likelihood of ...

Osteosarcoma Cell‐Derived Migrasomes Promote Macrophage M2 Polarization to Aggravate Osteosarcoma Proliferation and Metastasis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Migrasomes are newly discovered organelles in migrating cells. This study finds that osteosarcoma cell‐derived migrasomes promote the tumor‐promoting phenotype of macrophages and further aggravate osteosarcoma malignant progression via milk fat globule‐EGF factor 8.

Automated Segmentation of Pulmonary Lobes using Coordination-Guided Deep Neural Networks [PDF]

2019 IEEE 16th International Symposium on Biomedical Imaging (ISBI 2019), 2019
The identification of pulmonary lobes is of great importance in disease diagnosis and treatment. A few lung diseases have regional disorders at lobar level. Thus, an accurate segmentation of pulmonary lobes is necessary. In this work, we propose an automated segmentation of pulmonary lobes using coordination-guided deep neural networks from chest CT ...

Closing the mortality gap after a myocardial infarction in people with and without chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

Heart, 2015
Objective Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) have increased mortality following myocardial infarction (MI) compared with patients without COPD. We investigated the extent to which differences in recognition and management after MI
