Severe vitamin D (vitD) deficiency is a very common condition in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and it is predictor of poor prognosis. There is emerging evidence suggesting a connection between the insufficient response to phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors (PDE5i) and vitD deficiency in patients with PAH. In the present translational study, vitD deficiency was induced in Wistar rats by exposure to vitD free diet for 5 weeks and followed by Su5416 administration and hypoxia (10%) for 3 weeks, a standard experimental model of PAH.

Background: Understanding the relationship between genetic variations and brain imaging phenotypes is an important issue in Alzheimer's disease (AD) research. As an alternative to GWAS univariate analyses, canonical correlation analysis (CCA) and its deep learning extension (DCCA) are widely used to identify associations between multiple genetic variants such as SNPs and multiple imaging traits such as brain ROIs from PET/MRI. However, with the recent availability of numerous genetic variants from genotyping and whole genome sequencing data for AD, these approaches often suffer from severe overfitting when dealing with 'fat' genetics data, e.
