Synopsis Twenty-six patients with RDC bipolar disorder were compared a previously reported group of 48 schizophrenics and 34 healthy controls, using volumetric MRI measurements cerebral, cortical sulcal volumes. The appeared no different from the both these groups had significantly larger cerebral volumes than schizophrenics. Our previous report reduced volume in schizophrenic group, corresponding increase fluid is, therefore, not generalized feature psychotic illness but may be more...
Background— Recoarctation after the Norwood procedure increases risk for mortality. The Single Ventricle Reconstruction (SVR) trial randomized subjects with a single right ventricle undergoing to modified Blalock-Taussig shunt or ventricle–pulmonary artery shunt. We sought determine incidence of recoarctation, factors, and outcomes in SVR trial. Methods Results— was defined by intervention, either catheter based surgical. Univariate analysis multivariable Cox proportional hazard models were...
Numerous modalities have been used to diagnose and characterize noncompaction of ventricular myocardium (NCVM) including magnetic resonance imaging, two-dimensional echocardiography (2DE), contrast-enhanced 2DE, angiography. The current case series examines the use real-time three-dimensional transthoracic (RT-3DE) in four such cases NCVM.From December 2003 March 2004, we performed RT-3DE using a Philips Sonos 7500 echocardiographic scanner equipped with 2-4 MHz 3D matrix array probe,...
Objective Speckle tracking echocardiography ( STE ) may be a useful modality for assessing ventricular performance in patients with single ventricle physiology. However, 's ability to accurately assess this population is unknown. The objective of study was perform preliminary comparison measures myocardial deformation reference standard function derived from pressure–volume loop PVL analysis. Design This secondary analysis prospective investigating s Fontan were recorded using...
Complex congenital heart disease characterized by the underdevelopment of one ventricular chamber (single ventricle (SV) circulation) is normally treated with a three-stage surgical repair. This study aims at developing multiscale computational framework able to couple patient-specific three-dimensional finite-element model SV lumped parameter (LP) whole circulation, in closed-loop fashion. A sequential approach was carried out: (i) cardiocirculatory parameters were estimated using fully LP...
Collaboration between data scientists and domain experts is necessary for the success of healthcare machine learning projects. Our present concern relationship clinicians, which often faces tensions commonly encountered by multidisciplinary teams. It important to be able prevent these differences from creating divisions that can derail a project. In this paper, we focus on understanding interplay roles where conflict arise due communication issues, varying incentives, differing perspectives.
Differences in ventricular geometry and physiology of patients with single ventricle anatomy complicate the application traditional, noninvasive measurements systolic function. We compared measures function invasive to evaluate their validity this population.A secondary analysis enrolled multi-institutional research project, "multi-scale modeling hearts," was performed. Pressure-volume loops (PVLs) were recorded using microconductance catheters. Transthoracic echocardiogram cardiac magnetic...
The relationship between echocardiographic measures of left ventricular (LV) systolic function and reference-standard have not been assessed in children. objective this study was to assess the validity indices LV via direct comparison a novel composite measure contractility derived from pressure-volume loop (PVL) analysis.
Objectives. This study evaluated the variability and time resource utilization of bedside 3-dimensional echocardiographic left ventricular volume analysis (3D-LVVA) in congenital heart disease (CHD). Background. There are currently limited data on 3D-LVVA CHD. Methods. Four reviewers varying experience levels were timed performing 15 on-scanner 3D-LVVAs. Inter- intraobserver for end-diastolic (LVEDV), end-systolic (LVESV), ejection fraction (LVEF) was evaluated. Results. Median age 12.7...
