Abstract

Cardiac function is reduced after acute myocardial infarction due to myocardial injury and to changes in the viable non-ischemic myocardium, a process known as cardiac remodeling. Current treatment of patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) reduces infarct size, preserves left ventricular function, and improves survival. However, it does not prevent remodeling which leads to heart failure. The aim of the present study was to model the echocardiographically estimated data with respect to the surgically collected data using Neural Networks. In particular, we attempted to analyze the relationship between cardiac remodeling variables obtained from echo and the infarct variables obtained from surgical data using neural networks. Towards that purpose, 199 rats were separated in two groups. The first group was subjected to coronary artery ligation, while the second underwent a sham operation. Echocardiography was used for rat monitoring. Scar weight and area were estimated after surgical incision. It appeared that several factors could be modelled with neural networks. Such modeling approaches could be developed to enable the simulation of the pathophysiological process after an Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI) and predict with accuracy the effects of novel or current treatments that act via modulation of tissue injury, Left Ventricular dilation, geometry and hypertrophy.
大鼠心肌梗死后神经网络建模
急性心肌梗死后,由于心肌损伤和存活的非缺血心肌的改变,心功能降低,这一过程被称为心脏重塑。目前急性心肌梗死(AMI)患者的治疗可减小梗死面积,保留左心室功能,提高生存率。然而,它并不能阻止导致心力衰竭的重塑。本研究的目的是利用神经网络对超声心动图估计的数据与手术收集的数据进行建模。特别是,我们试图利用神经网络分析从回声中获得的心脏重塑变量与从手术数据中获得的梗死变量之间的关系。为此,199只大鼠被分成两组。第一组接受冠状动脉结扎,第二组接受假手术。超声心动图监测大鼠。术后评估瘢痕重量和面积。似乎有几个因素可以用神经网络建模。这种建模方法可以用于模拟急性心肌梗死(AMI)后的病理生理过程,并准确预测通过调节组织损伤、左心室扩张、几何形状和肥厚来发挥作用的新型或现有治疗方法的效果。
