Abstract figure legend Schematic overview of the study's methodology and key findings. In a preclinical swine model, doxorubicin administration induced cardiotoxicity, characterized by diffuse fibrotic remodelling and altered electrical function, as assessed by magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and electrophysiological mapping.

Abstract figure legend A pre‐existing fibroblast signalling model was enhanced by integrating atrial‐specific components and reactions linked to atrial fibrosis and atrial fibrillation (AF). The analysis highlights the central role of Ca2⁺ signalling in driving profibrotic responses to AF‐relevant stimuli, angiotensin‐II and transforming growth factor ...

Caenorhabditis elegans as an in vivo model system for human inherited primary arrhythmia syndromes
Abstract figure legend Most genes involved in inherited primary arrhythmia syndromes (IPAS) are conserved in Caenorhabditis elegans, where genetic manipulation enables functional characterization of variants, identification of regulatory proteins, and in vivo drug testing.

Circular RNAs: Unlocking new avenues in cardiometabolic disease management
Abstract figure legend In the heart circular RNAs (circRNAs) function as microRNA sponges, interact with proteins and can even undergo translation. Advances in bioinformatics now enable their identification through high‐throughput RNA sequencing, whereas computational analyses reveal differential expression in cardiac disease settings.

Stacked Ensemble Model With Explainable AI for Early Detection of Heart Disease
ABSTRACT Heart disease (HD) is still one of the most common causes of death around the world. Early detection is very important, but it is often hard to do because the symptoms are not specific and the models are not very clear. We propose a two‐layer stacked ensemble that combines four base learners—Support Vector Machine, K‐Nearest Neighbors, Naïve ...
