OBJECTIVES: We aimed to construct an artificial intelligence-enabled electrocardiogram (ECG) algorithm that can accurately predict the presence of left atrial low-voltage areas (LVAs) in patients with persistent atrial fibrillation.
Deep learning (DL) models have shown promise for the accurate detection of atrial fibrillation (AF) from electrocardiogram/photoplethysmography (ECG/PPG) data, yet deploying these on resource-constrained wearable devices remains challenging. This stu...
BACKGROUND: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is highly correlated with heart failure, stroke and death. Screening increases AF detection and facilitates the early adoption of comprehensive intervention. Long-term wearable devices have become increasingly pop...
Medical advances prolonging life have led to more permanent pacemaker implants. When pacemaker implantation (PMI) is commonly caused by sick sinus syndrome or conduction disorders, predicting PMI is challenging, as patients often experience related s...
Developing a convenient detection method is important for diagnosing and treating obstructive sleep apnea. Considering availability and medical reliability, we established a deep-learning model that uses single-lead electrocardiogram signals for obst...
BACKGROUND: Sleep apnea (SLA) is a commonly encountered sleep disorder characterized by repetitive cessation of respiration while sleeping. In the past few years, researchers have focused on developing less complex and more cost-effective diagnostic ...
Stress is a psychological condition resulting from the body's response to challenging situations, which can negatively impact physical and mental health if experienced over prolonged periods. Early detection of stress is crucial to prevent chronic he...

Heart failure (HF) is defined as the inability of the heart to meet body oxygen demand requiring an elevation in left ventricular filling pressures (LVP) to compensate. LVP increase can be assessed in the cardiac catheterization laboratory, but this ...
