17,22,23 Comorbidities were identified using both ICD-8 and ICD-10 codes for acute myocardial infarction, ischemic heart disease, chronic heart failure, atrial fibrillation, peripheral artery disease (composite of atherosclerosis in the peripheral arteries or aorta, arterial embolism or thrombosis, or...
The lack of an ICD-10 code also limits research on Lp(a) using electronic health records. Guideline Recommendations for Measuring Lp(a) The European Society of Cardiology/European Atherosclerosis Society have given a Class IIa, Level of Evidence: C recommendation for measuring Lp(a) in patients...
smoking and hyperlipidemia. While an association between atherosclerosis and ascending aortic aneurysms has been observed45, whether the two pathologic processes share underlying causal mechanisms remained unknown. Here, through causal inference methods, we provide genetic support for a causal role of smokin...

severe atherosclerosis and stenosis of these arteries and/or production of anticalcific molecules by the injured vasculature may lead to more rapid regional bone loss and failure of the vertebral structure. These findings support previous prospective studies of older men and Chinese women that found an...
(ICD9, ICD10, or OPCS-4) consistent with BAV and followed by manual annotation. The validation and test sets were sampled at random with uniform probability from all 14,328 MRI sequences to capture the BAV class distribution expected at test time. Development and validation set MRIs were ...
significant size or cause complications, these aneurysms can lead to aortic dissection or rupture, both of which are life-threatening [1,2]. The etiology of these aneurysms can be multifactorial, including genetic predisposition, atherosclerosis, hypertension, connective tissue disorders, and other risk...
