Latest AI and machine learning research in hypertension for healthcare professionals.
Background: Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) remain the leading global cause of mortality, responsible for approximately 31% of all deaths worldwide in 2021. Traditional risk calculators, including Framingham, ASCVD, SCORE, and SCORE2, have long constituted the cornerstone of primary prevention strategies; however, they were derived predominantly from high-income European and North American populatio...
Non-contact pulse wave reconstruction hinges on the precise recovery of waveform morphology, including the dicrotic notch. Conventional Red-Green-Blue (RGB)-based methods, which extract physiological signals from recorded facial videos, are constrained by the integral imaging mechanism of standard cameras, where the exposure process induces a smoothing effect that attenuates subtle vascular pulsat...
Continuous long-term monitoring and diagnosis of biomedical signals, such as electrocardiograms (ECGs), can help mitigate an increasing threat to publ...
Blood pressure (BP) is a key marker for cardiovascular risk assessment and therapeutic decision-making, and Photoplethysmography (PPG) enables low-cos...
Diastolic heart failure (HF) in primary cardiomyopathy is under-recognized and often diagnosed late, particularly in children. While recent studies ha...
Background: Multi-drug resistant Bacterial (MDRB) Infections in the intensive care units (ICUs) substantially elevate patient mortality, prolong hospi...
Background: The brainstem and its different sub-systems control essential functions such as motor agility etc. that worsen with age. The purpose of th...
Vascular circulation follows fundamental biophysical principles that optimize mass transport and metabolic energy expenditure, which can be effectivel...
Uncertainty quantification (UQ) is critical for safety-critical domains like healthcare, yet it is rarely evaluated under realistic out-of-distributio...
Carotid atherosclerosis is a major contributor to ischemic stroke and transient ischemic attack. Conventional ultrasound assessment is commonly based ...
Maximal oxygen consumption VO2max is the gold standard for cardiorespiratory fitness but requires resource-intensive physical testing. Recent reports ...
This work proposes Attractor-Vascular Coupling Theory (AVCT), a mathematical framework showing that cardiac attractor geometry encodes blood pressure ...
Objective: To describe the ophthalmic examination protocol within the German National Cohort (NAKO) / NAKO Gesundheitsstudie, to report the baseline p...
The systemic, metabolic, lifestyle factors have established associations with Alzheimer's Disease (AD) through epidemiologic and AD-specific biomarker...
BACKGROUND: Aortic dissection (AD) is a life-threatening emergency with high mortality. Although elevated body mass index (BMI) is associated with bot...
Continuous monitoring of Arterial Blood Pressure (ABP) in critically ill patients requires invasive arterial catheterization, which carries risks of t...
Background Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are combustion-derived pollutants linked to cardiovascular di...
Progression to dialysis or end-stage renal disease is a rare but clinically important outcome. Clinicians need evidence on how medication exposures in...
Background: Mechanical ventricular unloading and systemic circulatory support with left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) enable myocardial recovery ...
Backgound: Accurate assessment of diastolic function and left ventricular (LV) filling pressure is central to heart failure diagnosis and risk stratif...
