Acute coronary syndrome, with an estimated prevalence of 300 000 cases annually in France, is one of the principal diagnostic and therapeutic emergencies in atheroma. In cases of atypical chest pain, with or without signs of severity, coronary, aortic and pulmonary CT should allow emergency specialists to rule out rapidly diagnoses of coronary disease, pulmonary embolism, aortic dissection or other chest conditions. Should acute coronary syndrome develop after immediate therapeutic management, a cardiac MRI will provide the cardiologist with the additional data necessary to assess the patient's prognosis--especially by assessing myocardial viability--and decide on subsequent management. In cases of acute coronary syndrome with normal coronary angiography, cardiac MRI can distinguish myocardial infarction from myocarditis or from Tako Tsubo syndrome.

Augmented prediction of vertebral collapse after osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures through parameter-efficient fine-tuning of biomedical foundation models.
Sci Rep

Department of Medical Device Development, Seoul National University College of Medicine, Seoul, Republic of Korea.
Vertebral collapse (VC) following osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF) often requires aggressive treatment, necessitating an accurate prediction for early intervention. This study aimed to develop a predictive model leveraging deep neural networks to predict VC progression after OVCF using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and clinical data. Among 245 enrolled patients with acute OVCF, data from 200 patients were used for the development dataset, and data from 45 patients were used for the test dataset.

The triglyceride to high density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG/HDL-C) ratio has been consistently linked with the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD). Nevertheless, there is a paucity of studies focusing on acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or experiencing bleeding events. The study encompassed 17,643 ACS participants who underwent PCI.

Fine particulate matter has been linked with acute coronary syndrome. Nevertheless, the key constituents remain unclear. Here, we conduct a nationwide case-crossover study in China during 2015-2021 to quantify the associations between fine particulate matter constituents (organic matter, black carbon, nitrate, sulfate, and ammonium) and acute coronary syndrome, and to identify the critical contributors.

Cardiogenic shock (CS) in women is a serious cardiovascular (CV) event associated with a high mortality rate. Non-ischemic etiologies are the most common etiologies in women, such as stress-induced cardiomyopathy, peripartum/postpartum cardiomyopathy, heart failure-related CS, or CS due to myocarditis or valvular heart disease. Although not being the most common etiology in women, acute myocardial infarction is still an important one.
