In a substudy of the RATE-AF trial, which compared heart rate control therapy using digoxin or the beta-blocker bisoprolol, heart rate and physical activity data collected using a wearable device showed equivalent heart rate control by the two drugs and could be used to predict future heart fa...
Emerging technology allows patients to measure and record their heart rate (HR) remotely by photoplethysmography (PPG) using smart devices like smartphones. However, the validity and expected distribution of such measurements are unclear, making it diffi
All interventions in the experimental groups improved the total clinical effectiveness rate more significantly than CT in the control group (all P < 0.05) (Additional file 24). According to Additional file 25, XZK + CT was superior to ZBT + CT in improving the total clinical eff...
In terms of data quality control, owing to the variety and dosage forms of TCM, the name of the drug is standardized and different dosage forms of the same drug are standardized as one. Two researchers independently verified the eligibility of the patients for this study and retrieved the data...
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD): It is the first one in China to introduce the concept of Integrated Western and Chinese Medicine in treating CODP and pulmonary heart disease, which has been proved effectively in treating acute exacerbation of COPD (AECOPD). Here, non-invasive ventilat...
Overall, in the context of atherosclerosis, single-cell sequencing tools offer clinicians the ability to sensitively assess early treatment at the single-cell level. Plaque is a common clinical manifestation of atherosclerosis, leading to reduced blood supply and increasing the risk of heart attack, ...
β-actin served as a loading control. Quantifications of immunoreactive band intensities were normalized against β actin and shown in the panels: A NF-L, B NF-M, C NF-H, Dβ-(III)tubulin, E GFAP; values represent fold-change as compared to basal (Veh) in the absence of herbal ...
Founded in December 2013, the Respiratory Intensive Care Unit (RICU) contains 20 beds. It adopts a single-ward design, equipped with an independent indoor temperature and humidity control system, a positive and negative pressure isolation ward and a family video visits system. Critically ill patient...
We aggregated the results to perform one-sided Z-tests against the hypothesis that corrupted models were more likely to produce medically harmful output. For multiconcept trials, we also compared the rates of harm between attack targets and control concepts. Fig. 4: Impact of data poisoning on ...
As the human heart is incapable of regeneration, CM are replaced by a non-contractile scar, leading to structural changes and functional decline, culminating in heart failure (HF)2. Patients suffering from HF face debilitating morbidity and a 5-year mortality rate of 50%3. Given that ...
