In this paper, a novel algorithm based on a convolutional neural network (CNN) is proposed for myocardial infarction detection via multilead electrocardiogram (ECG). A beat segmentation algorithm utilizing multilead ECG is designed to obtain multilea...
OBJECTIVES: To explore the application value and forensic significance of ischemia modified albumin （IMA） in pericardial fluid to diagnose sudden cardiac death.
BACKGROUND: Laboratory findings have suggested that systemic and vascular inflammation can impair the antiatherogenic function of high-density lipoproteins (HDLs). However, evidence from population studies is sparse.
