Application of Transfer Entropy Measure to Characterize Environmental Sounds in Urban and Wild Parks.

Anthropized green zones in urban areas and their surroundings develop complex soundscapes, characterized by the presence of multiple sound sources. This makes the interpretation of the sound environment challenging. To accurately distinguish between different sound components, a combination of selective analysis techniques is necessary.

Non-culprit plaque healing on serial OCT imaging and future outcome in patients with acute coronary syndromes.

Background And Aims: Histologic studies indicated that healed plaque, characterized by a multilayered pattern, is indicative of prior atherothrombosis and subsequent healing. However, longitudinal in vivo data on healed plaque formation in non-culprit plaques are limited. This study aimed to investigate serial changes and clinical significance of new layered pattern formation in non-culprit plaques in patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS) using serial optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging.

Agreement and reproducibility between 3DStent vs. Optical Coherence Tomography for evaluation of stent area and diameter.

3DStent is a novel rotational angiography imaging capable of 3D reconstruction and measuring stent area and diameter, without need for intravascular imaging. To compare 3DStent and OCT-derived stent area and diameter after PCI. Patients with de novo coronary lesions who underwent treatment with a single DES and evaluated by OCT and 3DStent were included.
