BACKGROUND: Left atrial (LA) remodeling plays a significant role in the progression of atrial fibrillation (AF). Although LA wall thickness (LAWT) has emerged as an indicator of structural remodeling, its impact on AF outcomes remains unclear. We aim...
BACKGROUND: Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of mortality worldwide. Cardiac fibrosis impacts the underlying pathophysiology of many cardiovascular diseases by altering structural integrity and impairing electrical conduction. Identif...
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: To develop an interpretable deep learning (XDL) model based on superb microvascular imaging (SMI) for the noninvasive diagnosis of the degree of interstitial fibrosis (IF) in chronic kidney disease (CKD).
Post-transplant allograft fibrosis remains a challenge in prolonging allograft survival. Regulated cell death has been widely implicated in various kidney diseases, including renal fibrosis. However, the role of different regulated cell death (RCD) ...
This study investigates the role of basement membrane-related genes in kidney fibrosis, a significant factor in the progression of chronic kidney disease that can lead to end-stage renal failure. The authors aim to develop a predictive model using ma...
BACKGROUND: Renal fibrosis is a critical factor in chronic kidney disease progression, with limited diagnostic and therapeutic options. Emerging evidence suggests RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are pivotal in regulating cellular mechanisms underlying fi...
BACKGROUND: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a global health concern characterised by irreversible renal damage that is often assessed using invasive renal biopsy. Accurate evaluation of interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy (IFTA) is crucial for ...
OBJECTIVE: Kidney fibrosis is a key pathological feature in the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD), traditionally diagnosed through invasive kidney biopsy. This study aimed to develop and validate a noninvasive, multi-center predictive model...
Purpose To develop a deep learning (DL) model that derives aligned strain values from cine (noncontrast) cardiac MRI and evaluate performance of these values to predict myocardial fibrosis in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Materials...
