Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Mathematics can be used to analyze and model cardiac arrhythmia. I discuss three different problems. (1) Diagnosis of atrial fibrillation based on the time intervals between subsequent beats. The probability density histograms of the differences of the intervals between consecutive beats have characteristic shapes for atrial fibrillation. (2) Curing atrial fibrillation by ablation of the core of rotors. Recent clinical studies have proposed that ablating the core of rotors in atrial tissue can cure atrial fibrillation. However, the claims are controversial. One problem that arises relates to difficulties associated with developing algorithms to identify the core of rotors. In model tissue culture systems, heterogeneity in the structure makes it difficult to unambiguously locate the core of rotors. (3) Risk stratification for sudden cardiac death (SCD). Despite numerous clinical studies, there is still a need for improved criteria to assess the risk of SCD. I discuss the possibility of using the dynamics of premature ventricular complexes to help make predictions. The development of wearable devices to record and analyze cardiac rhythms offers new prospects for the diagnosis and treatment of cardiac arrhythmia.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
