An Artificial Intelligence Generated Automated Algorithm to Measure Total Kidney Volume in ADPKD.

Introduction: Accurate tools to inform individual prognosis in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) are lacking. Here, we report an artificial intelligence (AI)-generated method for routinely measuring total kidney volume (TKV).

Methods: An ensemble U-net algorithm was created using the nnUNet approach.

PACS-integrated machine learning breast density classifier: clinical validation.

Objective: To test the performance of a novel machine learning-based breast density tool. The tool utilizes a convolutional neural network to predict the BI-RADS based density assessment of a study. The clinical density assessments of 33,000 mammographic examinations (164,000 images) from one academic medical center (Site A) were used for training.

South Asian medical cohorts reveal strong founder effects and high rates of homozygosity.

The benefits of large-scale genetic studies for healthcare of the populations studied are well documented, but these genetic studies have traditionally ignored people from some parts of the world, such as South Asia. Here we describe whole genome sequence (WGS) data from 4806 individuals recruited from the healthcare delivery systems of Pakistan, India and Bangladesh, combined with WGS from 927 individuals from isolated South Asian populations. We characterize population structure in South Asia and describe a genotyping array (SARGAM) and imputation reference panel that are optimized for South Asian genomes.

Frequent LPA KIV-2 Variants Lower Lipoprotein(a) Concentrations and Protect Against Coronary Artery Disease.

Background: Lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) concentrations are a major independent risk factor for coronary artery disease (CAD) and are mainly determined by variation in LPA. Up to 70% of the LPA coding sequence is located in the hypervariable kringle IV type 2 (KIV-2) region. It is hardly accessible by conventional technologies, but may contain functional variants.
