Association between periodontal disease and atherosclerosis: a bibliometric analysis.
Front Cardiovasc Med
November 2024
Background: In recent years, the relationship between periodontal disease (PD) and atherosclerosis (AS) has garnered significant scholarly attention. Chronic inflammation induced by PD may promote the onset and progression of AS through multiple mechanisms. Given the increasing global incidence of both PD and AS, which adversely affects patients' quality of life and longevity, further investigation into the interplay between PD and AS is of substantial clinical importance.

- This study investigates how AI and pre-ablation CT images can predict the recurrence of atrial fibrillation (AF) after catheter ablation, relying on clinical data and imaging for better accuracy.
- Researchers analyzed data from 638 patients and designed machine learning models using CT images and clinical variables, achieving varying predictive performance for AF recurrence.
- The best results came from an ensemble model combining both AI-driven imaging and selected clinical variables, yielding a predictive accuracy (AUC) of 0.76.
