BACKGROUND: The improvement of controllers of left ventricular assist device (LVAD) technology supporting heart failure (HF) patients has enormous impact, given the high prevalence and mortality of HF in the population. The use of reinforcement learn...
AIMS: This study aims to develop and validate an optimal model for predicting worsening heart failure (WHF). Multiple machine learning (ML) algorithms were compared, and the results were interpreted using SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP). A clini...
BACKGROUND: Prior studies characterizing worsening heart failure events (WHFE) have been limited in using structured healthcare data from hospitalizations, and with little exploration of sociodemographic variation. The current study examined the impa...
AIMS: Abnormalities in specific echocardiographic parameters and cardiac biomarkers have been reported among individuals with diabetes. However, a comprehensive characterization of diabetic cardiomyopathy (DbCM), a subclinical stage of myocardial abn...

BACKGROUND: Acute heart failure (AHF) in the intensive care unit (ICU) is characterized by its criticality, rapid progression, complex and changeable condition, and its pathophysiological process involves the interaction of multiple organs and system...
AIMS: Certain critical risk factors of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) patients were significantly different from those of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) patients, resulting in the limitations of existing ...

Heart failure (HF) affects millions of individuals and causes hundreds of thousands of deaths each year in the United States. Despite the public health burden, medical and device therapies for HF significantly improve clinical outcomes and, in a subs...
AIMS: Hospitalized patients with heart failure (HF) are a heterogeneous population, with multiple phenotypes proposed. Prior studies have not examined the biological phenotypes of critically ill patients with HF admitted to the contemporary cardiac i...
INTRODUCTION: Heart failure (HF) may induce bowel hypoperfusion, leading to hypoxia of the villa of the bowel wall and the occurrence of Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI). However, the risk factors for the development of CDI in HF patients hav...
