Deep learning and computer vision algorithms can deliver highly accurate and automated
interpretation of medical imaging to augment and assist clinicians. However, medical …

Background. The high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) assay provides important
prognostic information on cardiovascular diseases. Although hs-cTnT is associated with left …

Background: Although the presence of sub-clinical left ventricular diastolic dysfunction
(LVDD) increases cardiovascular risk, the current ESH/ESC guidelines do not include the …

We found that the anticoagulant plasma protease, activated protein C (APC), stimulates the
energy sensor kinase, AMPK, in the stressed heart by activating protease-activated receptor …

Background: This study investigated the association between left atrial enlargement and
stroke severity in young adults. We also studied the differences between the normal and left …

Purpose: Left ventricular (LV) remodelling is observed in numerous patients with
hypertension and is a principal cause of heart failure in elderly patients. The aim of this study …

Objective: The relationship between severity of coronary artery disease (CAD) and left
ventricler (LV) hypertrophy in hypertensive patients is well known. However, the association …

Aims: The aims of this study were to explore the left ventricular (LV) structural remodeling
and its risk factors in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients with or without …

Background. Abnormal left ventricular (LV) geometric patterns, particularly concentric LV
hypertrophy, are associated with a greater risk of hypertensive complications. The aim of this …

Background. Hypertension is the most common cardiovascular disease worldwide and is a
major cause of morbidity and mortality. Studies have suggested that the activity of the renin …
