Automatic Classification of 15 Leads ECG Signal of Myocardial Infarction Using One Dimension Convolutional Neural Network

FRET cascade miRNA addition probe from non-crosstalk DNA photonic wire assisted with clustering algorithm for early diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction

Early and accurate diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) can significantly reduce patient mortality. A variety of miRNAs are found to dysregulate in AMI patients, but the up- or down-regulation of a specific miRNA may not be evident in the early stage, making it difficult to achieve accurate diagnosis. Here, proposing the design that DNA photonic wire (PW) with no spectral crosstalk would make an excellent template for miRNA conjoint analysis, we report the construction of a miRNA addition probe for the additive analysis of two up-regulated miRNAs (miR-133a and miR-208a) for early diagnosis of AMI in clinical serum samples. A three-dye non-crosstalk DNA PW is built to form the two-step fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) cascade system, in which three paths can blocking the FRET cascade for separate or additive analysis of the two miRNAs. K-Means clustering algorithm is further utilized to classify the output signals of the miRNA addition probe, achieving a 100% accurate diagnosis of early AMI in both the training (n = 40) and validation (n = 19) cohorts of clinical serum samples.

Development of a Convolutional Neural Network Model to Predict Coronary Artery Disease Based on Single-Lead and Twelve-Lead ECG Signals

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is one of the most common causes of heart ailments; many patients with CAD do not exhibit initial symptoms. An electrocardiogram (ECG) is a diagnostic tool widely used to capture the abnormal activity of the heart and help with diagnoses. Assessing ECG signals may be challenging and time-consuming. Identifying abnormal ECG morphologies, especially in low amplitude curves, may be prone to error. Hence, a system that can automatically detect and assess the ECG and treadmill test ECG (TMT-ECG) signals will be helpful to the medical industry in detecting CAD. In the present work, we developed an intelligent system that can predict CAD, based on ECG and TMT signals more accurately than any other system developed thus far. The distinct convolutional neural network (CNN) architecture deals with single-lead and multi-lead (12-lead) ECG and TMT-ECG data effectively. While most artificial intelligence-based systems rely on the universal dataset, the current work used clinical lab data collected from a renowned hospital in the neighborhood. ECG and TMT-ECG graphs of normal and CAD patients were collected in the form of scanned reports. One-dimensional ECG data with all possible features were extracted from the scanned report with the help of a modified image processing method. This feature extraction procedure was integrated with the optimized architecture of the CNN model leading to a novel prediction system for CAD. The automated computer-assisted system helps in the detection and medication of CAD with a high prediction accuracy of 99%.
