TL;DR: The lower estimated VO2 max in South Asians, compared to white Europeans, was consistent among Indian, Pakistani and Bangladeshi children and was attenuated by 78% after adjustment for objectively measured physical activity (average daily steps).
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of the combined ETA and ETB receptor antagonist PD145065 on arteries, arterioles, and veins in the cat hindlimb.
TL;DR: The results indicate that PD145065 is a potent antagonist at both ETA and ETB receptors in vivo and in vitro, which may prove useful for elucidating the possible physiologic and/or pathophysiologic roles of the endothelins.
Journal ArticleDOI
What decides the suspicion of acute coronary syndrome in acute chest pain patients
TL;DR: Symptoms were more important than ECG and TnT for the assessment of obvious ACS/strong suspicion versus vague/no suspicion, and may help improve decision-making in ED patients with possible ACS.
Proceedings Article
Detection of acute coronary syndromes in chest pain patients using neural network ensembles
TL;DR: It is shown that it is possible to construct a machine learning tool that can predict the presence of ACS among patients with chest pain at a ROC area of 77.8%, corre- sponding to a level of 40% specificity and 95% sensitivity.
