Huo Y, Tang Y, Chen Y, Gao D, Han S, Bao S, et al.
J Med Imaging (Bellingham) . 2019 Nov; 6(4):044005. PMID: 31763353
Tissue window filtering has been widely used in deep learning for computed tomography (CT) image analyses to improve training performance (e.g., soft tissue windows for abdominal CT). However, the effectiveness...

Flowers E, Lin F, Kandula N, Allison M, Carr J, Ding J, et al.
Diabetes Care . 2019 Feb; 42(5):946-953. PMID: 30796111
Objective: South Asians have a higher prevalence of type 2 diabetes compared with other race/ethnic groups. Body composition is associated with the risk for type 2 diabetes. Differences in body...

Brittain E, Nwabuo C, Xu M, Gupta D, Hemnes A, Moreira H, et al.
J Am Heart Assoc . 2017 Apr; 6(4). PMID: 28360228
Background: The determinants of pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP) are not fully understood. It is unknown whether racial differences in PASP exist or if other population characteristics are associated with...

Dauriz M, Porneala B, Guo X, Bielak L, Peyser P, Durant N, et al.
Circ Cardiovasc Genet . 2015 Mar; 8(3):507-15. PMID: 25805414
Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) and cardiovascular disease share risk factors and subclinical atherosclerosis (SCA) predicts events in those with and without diabetes mellitus. T2D genetic risk may predict...

Criqui M, Denenberg J, Ix J, McClelland R, Wassel C, Rifkin D, et al.
JAMA . 2013 Nov; 311(3):271-8. PMID: 24247483
Importance: Coronary artery calcium (CAC), measured by computed tomography (CT), has strong predictive value for incident cardiovascular disease (CVD) events. The standard CAC score is the Agatston, which is weighted...

Hou L, Lloyd-Jones D, Ning H, Huffman M, Fornage M, He K, et al.
Eur J Epidemiol . 2013 Sep; 28(9):735-42. PMID: 24030512
White blood cell (WBC) count is associated with incident coronary heart disease (CHD). Data are sparse regarding its association in young adults with future coronary artery calcification (CAC). Our study...

Feitosa M, Wojczynski M, North K, Zhang Q, Province M, Carr J, et al.
Atherosclerosis . 2013 Mar; 228(1):175-80. PMID: 23477746
Objectives: Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) ranges from simple steatosis to hepatic inflammation to cirrhosis. We sought to identify common genetic variants contributing to NAFLD, using CT measured fatty liver...

Feitosa M, Reiner A, Wojczynski M, Graff M, North K, Carr J, et al.
Atherosclerosis . 2013 Feb; 227(2):420-4. PMID: 23390892
Objective: This study investigated whether nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) predicts prevalent coronary heart disease (CHD). Methods: Epidemiologic studies have used various definitions for NAFLD. Here, we considered both liver...

Choi E, Yan R, Fernandes V, Opdahl A, Gomes A, Almeida A, et al.
Am Heart J . 2012 Aug; 164(2):251-8. PMID: 22877812
Background: Systemic inflammation has been linked to the development of heart failure in population studies including Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA), but little evidence exists regarding potential mechanism of this...

Criqui M, Kamineni A, Allison M, Ix J, Carr J, Cushman M, et al.
Arterioscler Thromb Vasc Biol . 2010 Sep; 30(11):2289-96. PMID: 20814018
Objective: The goal of this study was to compare and contrast coronary artery calcium (CAC) with abdominal aortic calcium (AAC) in terms of their associations with traditional and novel cardiovascular...
