Robotic percutaneous interventional systems represent the future of interventional cardiology. Robotic technology significantly reduces operator exposure to ionizing radiation, and improves ergonomics in the cardiac catheterization laboratory, thereb...
BACKGROUND: Coronary artery plaque rupture (PR) is closely associated with immune-inflammatory responses. The systemic inflammatory index (SII) and the systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI) have shown potential in predicting the occurrence of P...
Artificial intelligence (AI) is being intensively applied to cardiology, particularly in diagnostics, risk prediction, treatment planning, and invasive procedures. While AI-driven advancements have demonstrated promise, their real-world implementatio...
BACKGROUND: Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) remains a leading global cause of mortality. This study explores predictors of in-hospital mortality among AMI patients using advanced machine learning (ML) techniques.
