The USPSTF (2009) concluded that there is insufficient evidence to recommend the use of lipoprotein(a) level to screen asymptomatic individuals with no history of CHD to prevent CHD events. An assessment prepared for the Agency for Healthcare Quality and Research (Helfand, et al., 2009) ...
To tackle the limitations of the prior studies, we propose an end-to-end deep neural network to (a) screen patients for CVDs and (b) quantify CVD mortality risk scores directly from chest LDCT examinations. Specifically, our approach focuses on the cardiac region in a chest LDCT scan and ...

Therefore, to understand, screen and optimize prevention of cardiovascular disease in AAV patients, we investigated the risk of long-term ischemic cardiovascular events, including ischemic heart disease, coronary angiogram (CAG), percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and ventricular arrhythmia/use of ...
Between 2006 and 2010, information pertaining to lifestyle factors (i.e., smoking, physical activity), comorbidities (i.e., hypertension, hyperlipidemia), medication (i.e., diabetes-related medication), and family history was collected using a touchscreen questionnaire during recruitment. Waist circ...
Demographics, healthy lifestyle information, and other potentially health-related information were obtained through touch screen questionnaires, face-to-face interviews, physical examinations, and biological samples. In the present study, among the 502,356 participants, we excluded individuals who withdrew ...
Assessments of Covariates A touch-screen questionnaire was used to collect information on age, sex, race and ethnicity, Townsend Deprivation Index, education attainment, annual household income, and depression status. The Townsend Deprivation Index is a composite measure of deprivation based on unemployme...
The menopausal status of women was determined based on the UKB touchscreen questionnaire. Additionally, BMI, blood pressure and lipid levels were determined following standardised procedures. Baseline comorbidities were determined based on self-reports during the initial questionnaire or verbal interviews at...
Two authors will independently screen titles and abstracts for relevance, review full texts for inclusion and conduct detail data extraction. The methodological quality will be evaluated using the QUADAS-2 tool. If pooling is possible, these researchers will use bi-variate model for diagnostic meta-...
