In silico analysis of atrial fibrillation and hypertension mechanism of action secondary to ibrutinib/acalabrutinib in chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

Scientific reports
Ibrutinib and acalabrutinib are first- and next-generation Bruton Tyrosine Kinase inhibitors (BTKi), respectively, approved for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Ibrutinib has been associated with cardiovascular events, including atrial fibrillatio...

Biomarker panels for improved risk prediction and enhanced biological insights in patients with atrial fibrillation.

Nature communications
Atrial fibrillation (AF) increases the risk of adverse cardiovascular events, yet the underlying biological mechanisms remain unclear. We evaluate a panel of 12 circulating biomarkers representing diverse pathophysiological pathways in 3817 AF patien...

Poincare guided geometric UNet for left atrial epicardial adipose tissue segmentation in Dixon MRI images.

Scientific reports
Epicardial Adipose Tissue (EAT) is a recognized risk factor for cardiovascular diseases and plays a pivotal role in the pathophysiology of Atrial Fibrillation (AF). Accurate automatic segmentation of the EAT around the Left Atrium (LA) from Magnetic ...

Prediction of three-year all-cause mortality in patients with heart failure and atrial fibrillation using the CatBoost model.

BMC cardiovascular disorders
BACKGROUND: Heart failure and atrial fibrillation (HF-AF) frequently coexist, resulting in complex interactions that substantially elevate mortality risk. This study aimed to develop and validate a machine learning (ML) model predicting the 3-year al...

A novel XAI framework for explainable AI-ECG using generative counterfactual XAI (GCX).

Scientific reports
Generative Counterfactual Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) offers a novel approach to understanding how AI models interpret electrocardiograms (ECGs). Traditional explanation methods focus on highlighting important ECG segments but often fai...

Machine-learning model for predicting left atrial thrombus in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.

BMC cardiovascular disorders
OBJECTIVE: Left atrial thrombus (LAT) poses a significant risk for stroke and other thromboembolic complication in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). This study aimed to evaluate the incidence and predictors of LAT in patients with paroxysmal AF...

Evaluating performance of large language models for atrial fibrillation management using different prompting strategies and languages.

Scientific reports
This study evaluated large language models (LLMs) using 30 questions, each derived from a recommendation in the 2024 European Society of Cardiology (ESC) guidelines for atrial fibrillation (AF) management. These recommendations were stratified by cla...

MicroRNA signature predicts post operative atrial fibrillation after coronary artery bypass grafting.

Scientific reports
Early detection of atrial fibrillation (AFib) is crucial for altering its natural progression and complication profile. Traditional demographic and lifestyle factors often fail as predictors of AFib. This study investigated pre-operative, circulating...

Atrial fibrillation detection via contactless radio monitoring and knowledge transfer.

Nature communications
Atrial fibrillation (AF) has been a prevalent and serious arrhythmia associated with increased morbidity and mortality worldwide. The Electrocardiogram (ECG) is considered as the golden standard for AF diagnosis. However, current ECG is primarily use...

Deep learning based automated left atrial segmentation and flow quantification of real time phase contrast MRI in patients with atrial fibrillation.

The international journal of cardiovascular imaging
Real time 2D phase contrast (RTPC) MRI is useful for flow quantification in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients, but data analysis requires time-consuming anatomical contouring for many cardiac time frames. Our goal was to develop a convolutional neura...
