"A new cardiovascular disease risk calculator was needed, particularly one that includes measures of CKM syndrome, which is highly prevalent in the U.S.," said Sadiya S. Khan, M.D., M.Sc., FAHA, chair of the statement writing committee for the Association. "The new PREVENT risk calculato...

The present study examines the role of feature selection methods in optimizing machine learning algorithms for predicting heart disease. The Cleveland Heart disease dataset with sixteen feature selection techniques in three categories of filter, wrapper,
Large-scale screening for the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) is crucial for its prevention and management. Physical examination data has the advantages of wide coverage, large capacity, and easy collection. Therefore, here we report a gender-specific cascading system for risk assessment of ...

Infants and children with congenital heart disease are a very diverse clinical population and vary considerably in size, anatomy, and physiology. Despite this, over the past decade risk adjustment tools have been developed that account for this diversity in a variety of settings, including the cardi...
Stage A (at risk for HF): high risk for heart failure but without structural heart disease, objective evidence of cardiovascular disease, or symptoms of heart failure : Hypertension Diabetes Metabolic syndrome Obesity Exposure to medications or treatments that cause cardiac damage (e.g., ...
In the absence of a complete normalization of the ECG, it should be assumed that myocardial disease remains present. Family history of DCM and evaluation of underlying genetic risk A thorough 3-generation family history is always recommended among patients with nonischemic DCM, regardless of the ...
We were also interested in whether the estimated relative risk was increased in those with a history of heart disease and in the extent to which the level of risk varied with the dose and half-life of the drugs consumed. From a consideration of these factors we thought it possible to ...
that arises is which underlying pathophysiological pathways are most important in HFpEF. Recently, it was suggested that inflammation plays the crucial role in HFpEF. This chapter discusses whether increased inflammation is independent of the etiology of heart failure, if there are disease-specific mecha...
