BACKGROUND: This study aimed to determine whether artificial intelligence (AI)-based automated assessment of left atrioventricular coupling index (LACI) can provide incremental value above other traditional risk factors for predicting mortality among...
Chronic heart failure (CHF) poses a significant threat to human health. The stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) is a novel metric for accurately assessing stress hyperglycemia, which has been correlated with adverse outcomes in various major diseases. H...
BACKGROUND: Respiratory motion during radiotherapy (RT) may reduce the therapeutic effect and increase the dose received by organs at risk. This can be addressed by real-time tracking, where respiration motion prediction is currently required to comp...
With the continuous development of intelligent transportation systems, traffic safety has become a major societal concern, and vehicle trajectory anomaly detection technology has emerged as a crucial method to ensure safety. However, current technolo...

Temporal Multi-Modal Knowledge Graphs (TMMKGs) can be regarded as a synthesis of Temporal Knowledge Graphs (TKGs) and Multi-Modal Knowledge Graphs (MMKGs), combining the characteristics of both. TMMKGs can effectively model dynamic real-world phenome...
BACKGROUND: Prior studies have demonstrated an association between retinal vascular features and cardiovascular disease (CVD), however most studies have only evaluated a few simple parameters at a time. Our aim was to determine whether a deep-learnin...
