Objective:To develop an artificial intelligence system using fully convolutional neural networks(FCN)to assist echocardiographers in the quantitative assessment of mitral regurgitation(MR)severity.Methods:From August 2021 to June 2024,echocardiographic images of 441 patients with MR were prospectively collected from Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University and the Central Hospital of Wuhan. After screening,a total of 269 patients(4 917 frames)were included in the study. Of these,3 644 frames(128 patients)of apical four-chamber color Doppler MR flow convergence images from Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University were selected as the training/validation set,while images from 121 patients(813 frames)were used as the internal test set. Additionally,images from 20 patients(460 frames)from the Central Hospital of Wuhan were selected as the external test set. The FCN algorithm was employed to capture features and segment the MR color region on the left atrial side,simultaneously outputting the regurgitant radius(r)for the calculation of the effective regurgitant orifice area and regurgitant volume. The severity of MR was then classified according to the 2017 guidelines of the American Society of Echocardiography. The segmentation and classification performance of the model was evaluated,and the measurement results of the AI system was compared with that of both senior and junior physicians.Results:In the internal test set,the accuracy of r identification for cases classified as Grade Ⅰ to Ⅳ was 0.48,0.81,0.86,and 0.87,respectively. In the external test set,the accuracy of r identification for cases classified as Grade Ⅰ to Ⅳ was 0.60,0.77,0.64,and 0.77,respectively. The average accuracy of MR classification in the internal and external test sets was 0.91 and 0.88,respectively.Conclusions:The FCN model is capable of segmenting the left atrial side regurgitant areas in apical four-chamber heart color Doppler images,aiding physicians in obtaining quantitative assessment parameters for MR,and assisting junior physicians in accurately assessing the severity of MR.

Background/Aims:
Metabolic syndrome is common in patients with acute pancreatitis and its components have been reported to be associated with infectious complications. In this post hoc analysis, we aimed to evaluate whether metabolic abnormalities impact the effect of immuneenhancing thymosin alpha-1 (Tα1) therapy in acute necrotizing pancreatitis (ANP) patients.
Methods:
All data were obtained from the database for a multicenter randomized clinical trial that evaluated the efficacy of Tα1 in ANP patients. Patients who discontinued the Tα1 treatment prematurely were excluded. The primary outcome was 90-day infected pancreatic necrosis (IPN) after randomization. Three post hoc subgroups were defined based on the presence of hyperglycemia, hypertriglyceridemia, or both at the time of randomization. In each subgroup, the correlation between Tα1 and 90-day IPN was assessed using the Cox proportional-hazards regression model. Multivariable propensity-score methods were used to control potential bias.
Results:
Overall, 502 participants were included in this post hoc analysis (248 received Tα1 treatment and 254 received matching placebo treatment). Among them, 271 (54.0%) had hyperglycemia, 371 (73.9%) had hypertriglyceridemia and 229 (45.6%) had both. Tα1 therapy was associated with reduced incidence of IPN among patients with hyperglycemia (18.8% vs 29.7%: hazard ratio, 0.80; 95% confidence interval, 0.37 to 0.97; p=0.03), but not in the other subgroups. Additional multivariate regression models using three propensity-score methods yielded similar results.
Conclusions
Among ANP patients with hyperglycemia, immune-enhancing Tα1 treatment was associated with a reduced risk of IPN (ClinicalTrials.gov, Registry number: NCT02473406).
