Conflicting clinical trial results on omega-3 highly unsaturated fatty acids (n-3 HUFA) have prompted uncertainty about their cardioprotective effects. While the VITAL trial found no overall cardiovascular benefit from n-3 HUFA supplementation, its s...
INTRODUCTION: Deep learning (DL) models offer improved performance in electrocardiogram (ECG)-based classification over rule-based methods. However, for widespread adoption by clinicians, explainability methods, like saliency maps, are essential.
BACKGROUND: Point-of-care (POC) high-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTn) assays have been shown to provide similar analytical precision despite substantially shorter turnaround times compared with laboratory-based hs-cTn assays. We applied the prev...
BACKGROUND: Acute coronary syndrome (ACS), specifically ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction is a major cause of morbidity and mortality throughout Europe. Diagnosis in the acute setting is mainly based on clinical symptoms and physician's inte...
BACKGROUND: Machine learning (ML) risk prediction models, although much more accurate than traditional statistical methods, are inconvenient to use in clinical practice due to their nontransparency and requirement of a large number of input variables...

PURPOSE: Generating polar map (PM) from [Ga]Ga-DOTA-FAPI-04 PET images is challenging and inaccurate using existing automatic methods that rely on the myocardial anatomical integrity in PET images. This study aims to enhance the accuracy of PM genera...
BACKGROUND: Early recognition, which preferably happens in primary care, is the most important tool to combat cardiovascular disease (CVD). This study aims to predict acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and ischemic heart disease (IHD) using Machine Le...
BACKGROUND: Our investigation aimed to determine how the diverse backgrounds and medical specialties of emergency physicians (Eps) influence the accuracy of diagnoses and the subsequent treatment pathways for patients presenting preclinically with MI...
BACKGROUND: Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a global health problem with high mortality. Early diagnosis can prevent the development of AMI and provide valuable information for subsequent treatment. Angiogenesis has been shown to be a critical f...
BACKGROUND: Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) risk correlates with C-reactive protein (CRP) levels, suggesting systemic inflammation is present well before AMI. Studying different types of periodontal disease (PD), extremely common in individuals at ...
