AI Article Synopsis
- Effective chest compressions are crucial for successful CPR, but they can sometimes cause serious injuries.
- A case is presented involving an 80-year-old man who experienced major complications after receiving CPR.
- He was later diagnosed with a deep epicardial laceration, highlighting the potential risks associated with effective chest compressions.
Article Abstract
Effective chest compressions have been proven to be a key element in a successful cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). However, unintended injuries have been described in the medical literature for decades, including major intrathoracic injuries. We present a case of an 80-year-old man after a successful CPR who was later diagnosed with deep epicardial laceration as a result of effective chest compressions.

Objectives: Recently, epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) assessed by CT was identified as an independent mortality predictor in patients with various cardiac diseases. Our goal was to develop a deep learning pipeline for robust automatic EAT assessment in CT.
Methods: Contrast-enhanced ECG-gated cardiac and thoraco-abdominal spiral CT imaging from 1502 patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) was included.

Article Synopsis
- Researchers aimed to find a screening method using computed tomography calcium scoring (CTCS) to assess the risk of heart failure (HF) in patients, particularly focusing on those with type 2 diabetes.
- They analyzed CTCS scans from nearly 2,000 patients and applied deep learning to create models that predict HF risk based on radiomic features of epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) and calcifications.
- The study found that CTCS-based models, especially those using fat-omics for non-diabetic patients and calcium-omics for diabetic patients, significantly outperformed traditional clinical prediction methods in forecasting incident HF.

Article Synopsis
- - Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is important in cardiovascular disease progression, but measuring its volume manually is tough and prone to errors.
- - This study introduces a new deep learning method for EAT quantification using coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) that combines data-driven techniques with specific anatomical information.
- - The automated method showed strong agreement with traditional manual measurements, achieving high accuracy for both 2D slices and 3D volumes, suggesting its potential value in clinical settings.

Article Synopsis
- Recent studies have focused on measuring epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) to predict major cardiovascular events, but traditional metrics have shown limited effectiveness.
- This study aimed to develop advanced EAT features called "fat-omics," which capture more detailed aspects of EAT's role in cardiovascular health, enhancing MACE prediction.
- Through testing a cohort of 400 patients, the novel 15-feature fat-omics model significantly outperformed traditional measures, showing better risk stratification for cardiovascular events.
