BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Atrial fibrillation (AF), a common arrhythmia, is linked with atrial electrical and structural changes, notably low voltage areas (LVAs) which are associated with poor ablation outcomes and increased thromboembolic risk. This ...

INTRODUCTION: Catheter ablation of persistent atrial fibrillation yields sub-optimal success rates partly due to the considerable heterogeneity within the patient population. Identifying distinct patient phenotypes based on post-ablation prognosis co...
BACKGROUND: Undetected atrial fibrillation (AF) poses a significant risk of stroke and cardiovascular mortality. However, diagnosing AF in real-time can be challenging as the arrhythmia is often not captured instantly. To address this issue, a deep-l...
BACKGROUND: Catheter ablation is a common treatment for atrial fibrillation (AF), but recurrence rates remain variable. Predicting the success of catheter ablation is crucial for patient selection and management. This research seeks to create a machi...
BACKGROUND: The PRAISE (PRedicting with Artificial Intelligence riSk aftEr acute coronary syndrome) score is a machine learning-based model for predicting 1-year adverse cardiovascular or bleeding events in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS)...
AIMS: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained arrhythmia among patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), leading to increased symptom burden and risk of thromboembolism. The HCM-AF score was developed to predict new-onset AF in p...
BACKGROUND: Detecting subtle patterns of atrial fibrillation (AF) and irregularities in Holter recordings is intricate and unscalable if done manually. Artificial intelligence-based techniques can be beneficial. In fact, with the rapid advancement of...
PURPOSE: Left atrial thrombus or spontaneous echo contrast (LAT/SEC) are widely recognized as significant contributors to cardiogenic embolism in non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). This study aimed to construct and validate an interpretable pre...
In recent years, wearable devices such as smartwatches and smart patches have revolutionized biosignal acquisition and analysis, particularly for monitoring electrocardiography (ECG). However, the limited power supply of these devices often precludes...
Atrial fibrillation (AF) as one of the most common cardiovascular diseases has attracted great attention due to its high disability and mortality rate. Thus, a timely and effective recognition method for AF is of great importance for diagnosing and p...
