Serum Peroxisome Proliferator-activated Receptor Gamma Coactivator-1α Related to Myocardial Energy Expenditure in Patients With Chronic Heart Failure.

The American journal of the medical sciences
BACKGROUND: Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator-1α (PGC-1α) plays key roles in controlling cardiac metabolism and function. Myocardial energy expenditure (MEE) can reflect myocardial energy metabolism and cardiac function. Wh...

Deep learning for predicting in-hospital mortality among heart disease patients based on echocardiography.

Echocardiography (Mount Kisco, N.Y.)
BACKGROUND: Heart disease (HD) is the leading cause of global death; there are several mortality prediction models of HD for identifying critically-ill patients and for guiding decision making. The existing models, however, cannot be used during init...

Real-Time Standard View Classification in Transthoracic Echocardiography Using Convolutional Neural Networks.

Ultrasound in medicine & biology
Transthoracic echocardiography examinations are usually performed according to a protocol comprising different probe postures providing standard views of the heart. These are used as a basis when assessing cardiac function, and it is essential that t...

Machine learning-based phenogrouping in heart failure to identify responders to cardiac resynchronization therapy.

European journal of heart failure
AIMS: We tested the hypothesis that a machine learning (ML) algorithm utilizing both complex echocardiographic data and clinical parameters could be used to phenogroup a heart failure (HF) cohort and identify patients with beneficial response to card...

Diagnosis of Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction: Machine Learning of Spatiotemporal Variations in Left Ventricular Deformation.

Journal of the American Society of Echocardiography : official publication of the American Society of Echocardiography
BACKGROUND: Stress testing helps diagnose heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), but there are no established criteria for quantifying left ventricular (LV) functional reserve. The aim of this study was to investigate whether compreh...

Automation, machine learning, and artificial intelligence in echocardiography: A brave new world.

Echocardiography (Mount Kisco, N.Y.)
Automation, machine learning, and artificial intelligence (AI) are changing the landscape of echocardiography providing complimentary tools to physicians to enhance patient care. Multiple vendor software programs have incorporated automation to impro...

Sacubitril/Valsartan in an Elderly Patient with Heart Failure: A Case Report.

Cardiology
Sacubitril/valsartan has recently been approved for the treatment of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. Given its recent introduction in the armamentarium for the treatment of heart failure (HF), "field-practice" evidence is required to de...
