Propelled by the synergy of the groundbreaking advancements in the ability to analyze high-dimensional datasets and the increasing availability of imaging and clinical data, machine learning (ML) is poised to transform the practice of cardiovascular medicine. Owing to the growing body of literature validating both the diagnostic performance as well as the prognostic implications of anatomic and physiologic findings, coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) is now a well-established non-invasive modality for the assessment of cardiovascular disease. ML has been increasingly utilized to optimize performance as well as extract data from CCTA as well as non-contrast enhanced cardiac CT scans. The purpose of this review is to describe the contemporary state of ML based algorithms applied to cardiac CT, as well as to provide clinicians with an understanding of its benefits and associated limitations. 相似文献

Objective
The aim of this study was to clarify the association between epicardial fat volume and coronary atherosclerosis.Materials and methods
A total of 90 patients with clinically suspected coronary artery disease underwent MDCT coronary angiography. The images were interpreted for Calcium score, quantification of epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) volume, and coronary artery disease (CAD) which was classified according to the number of affected vessels, location, extension, component of the lesion and degree of obstruction. EAT was correlated to CAD and Calcium score using 125?cm3 as a cutoff value for acceptable EAT volume.Results
The patients were classified into 3 groups: patients with 1-normal CCTA, 2-non-significant CAD and 3-significant CAD. A high statistical significant difference was found among the 3 groups regarding mean coronary calcium score (P value?=?0.00) and mean EAT volume; Group 1 (125.14?±?56.88?cm3), in group 2 (217.38?±?56.88?cm3) and the largest EAT volume was seen in group 3 (327.94?±?90.17?cm3), (P value: 0.00).Conclusion
The estimation of EAT volume could be considered as a screening test for any patients suspicious for CAD. 相似文献4.

We present 2 cases of Cushing syndrome with secondary adrenal insufficiency from concomitant use of ritonavir and inhaled corticosteroids in children with human immunodeficiency virus infection. These cases highlight the need for special consideration when treatment with an inhaled/intranasal corticosteroid is indicated in children receiving antiretroviral therapy. 相似文献

Objective
Epicardial fat volume (EFV) is related to calcified coronary plaques. However, it is unknown whether baseline EFV or changes in EFV affect the progression of coronary artery calcification over time.Methods
We identified 375 consecutive asymptomatic subjects with an intermediate risk of developing coronary artery disease, who underwent serial non-contrast CT at least 3–5 years apart. Subjects were divided into tertiles of CCS progression (% increase) between the 2 scans. Subjects from the upper tertile (High Progressors) were matched by age and gender to 81 subjects from the lower tertile (Low Progressors). All subjects underwent serial measurements of CCS and EFV. Relationships between EFV and CCS progression, and change in plaque number were examined.Results
At baseline, there was no difference in EFV, and EFV indexed to body surface area (EFVi) between the groups. At follow-up, EFV, EFVi and percent increase in EFVi-change were higher in High Progressors than Low Progressors (EFV, 102 ± 38 cm3 vs. 90 ± 35 cm3, p = 0.03; EFVi, 50 ± 16 cm3/m2 vs. 46 ± 15 cm3/m2, p = 0.03; percent increase in EFVi-change, 15 ± 22% vs. 7 ± 20%, p = 0.02). On multivariate analysis, after adjusting for conventional risk factors, EFVi increase ≥ 15% [odds ratio (OR) 2.3, p < 0.05], log (baseline CCS) [OR 0.3, p < 0.0001] and scan interval time [p = 0.003, OR 1.0] were predictive of being a High Progressor. EFVi increase ≥ 15% (β = 3.0, p = 0.02) and hypertension (β = 3.1, p = 0.01) were independent predictors of number of new calcified plaques on follow-up.Conclusion
Increase in EFV is associated with greater progression of coronary artery calcification in intermediate-risk subjects. 相似文献8.

Chronic use of efavirenz (EFV) has been linked to incidences of hepatotoxicity in patients receiving EFV to treat HIV-1. While recent studies have demonstrated that EFV stimulates hepatic cell death a role for the metabolites of efavirenz in this process has yet to be examined. In the present study, incubation of primary human hepatocytes with synthetic 8-hydroxyEFV (8-OHEFV), which is the primary metabolite of EFV, resulted in cell death, caspase-3 activation and reactive oxygen species formation. The metabolite exerted these effects at earlier time points and using lower concentrations than were required for the parent compound. In addition, pharmacological inhibition of cytochrome P450-dependent metabolism of EFV using 1-aminobenzotriazole markedly decreased reactive oxygen species formation and cell death. Treatment of primary human hepatocytes with EFV and 8-OHEFV also stimulated phosphorylation of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) as well as phosphorylation of the JNK substrate c-Jun. Further, the mRNA and protein expression of an isoform of Bim (Bcl-2 interacting mediator of cell death) denoted as BimEL, which is proapoptotic and has been shown to be modulated by JNK, was increased. Inhibition of JNK using SP600125 prevented the EFV- and 8-OHEFV-mediated cell death. Silencing of Bim using siRNA transfected into hepatocytes also prevented cell death resulting from 8-OHEFV-treatment. These data suggest that the oxidative metabolite 8-OHEFV is a more potent inducer of hepatic cell death than the parent compound EFV. Further, activation of the JNK signaling pathway and BimEL mRNA expression appear to be required for EFV- and 8-OHEFV-mediated hepatocyte death. 相似文献
