Automated diagnosis of coronary artery disease (CAD) patients using optimized SVM.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Currently Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) is one of the most prevalent diseases, and also can lead to death, disability and economic loss in patients who suffer from cardiovascular disease. Diagnostic procedures of this diseas...

A framework for parameter estimation and model selection in kernel deep stacking networks.

Artificial intelligence in medicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Kernel deep stacking networks (KDSNs) are a novel method for supervised learning in biomedical research. Belonging to the class of deep learning techniques, KDSNs are based on artificial neural network architectures that in...

Automatic coronary artery calcium scoring in cardiac CT angiography using paired convolutional neural networks.

Medical image analysis
The amount of coronary artery calcification (CAC) is a strong and independent predictor of cardiovascular events. CAC is clinically quantified in cardiac calcium scoring CT (CSCT), but it has been shown that cardiac CT angiography (CCTA) may also be ...

Trends in Robotic-Assisted Coronary Artery Bypass Grafts: A Study of The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Adult Cardiac Surgery Database, 2006 to 2012.

The Annals of thoracic surgery
BACKGROUND: Robotic technology is one of the most recent technological changes in coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) operations. The current analysis was conducted to identify trends in the use and outcomes of robotic-assisted CABG (RA-CABG).

Translational informatics approach for identifying the functional molecular communicators linking coronary artery disease, infection and inflammation.

Molecular medicine reports
Translational informatics approaches are required for the integration of diverse and accumulating data to enable the administration of effective translational medicine specifically in complex diseases such as coronary artery disease (CAD). In the cur...

RenalGuard system in high-risk patients for contrast-induced acute kidney injury.

American heart journal
BACKGROUND: High urine flow rate (UFR) has been suggested as a target for effective prevention of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI). The RenalGuard therapy (saline infusion plus furosemide controlled by the RenalGuard system) facilitates ...

Association between central aortic pulsatility and glomerular filtration rate in patients with coronary artery disease.

Anatolian journal of cardiology
OBJECTIVE: Aortic stiffness and chronic kidney disease share common risk factors. Increased aortic stiffness is a predictor of lower estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) at lower levels of renal functions. We aimed to investigate the associati...
