The effects of exposure to traffic related AIr pollution on the cardiovascular health and neurocognitive performances in middle school CHildren. (CHAIR) Hasselt University
Machine learning platform for better cardiovascular health assessment and risk stratification KU Leuven
Precise description of cardiovascular health and risk assessment are essential for optimal prevention and treatment strategies, but require a complex integration of many factors. The specific objectives of this project are: (1) Applying machine-learning (ML) algorithms to the available longitudinal, highly standardized, general population data to assess the complexity of clinical and behavioral variables, cardiac imaging sequences and ...
Computational Time Series Analysis for Cardiovascular Health and Cardiopulmonary Fitness Profiling KU Leuven
To date, there is an unmet need for accurate computational models that can identify and manage individuals at high risk of developing adverse Cardiovascular (CV) events. The purpose of this doctoral project, is the utilization of machine and deep learning algorithms to create a computational pipeline to construct a profile of patients related to their CV health and fitness and predict their response to potential exercise treatment programmes. ...
Integrative personalized computer modeling for better cardiovascular health assessment KU Leuven
The cardiovascular (CV) area has tremendous potential for personalized medicine and is currently under fast development. Precise description of CV health and risk assessment are essential for optimal prevention and treatment strategies, but requires complex integration of many factors. Development of computer population-based models will ultimately support precision medicine. Therefore, the specific aims of this project are: (1) Applying ...
Cooperation agreement between Hasselt University and VITO in the context of a doctorate with title: "Health effects of active mobility: cardiovascular advantages and risks of accidents and air quality" Hasselt University
Proteomics and Metabolomics for Prevention, Diagnosis, and Mechanistic Insights in Cardiovascular Disease KU Leuven
Cardiovascular disease is multifactorial, which means it is influenced by genetics, behaviors, socioeconomics, and environment. Preventive cardiology by addressing modifiable risk factors has advanced significantly in recent years. Despite the current risk prediction algorithms and intervention strategies, cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of mortality. Therefore, the use of additional biomarkers is being advocated to improve ...
Analysis of the Effectiveness and Economic Viability of Different Cardiovascular Disease Treatment and Prevention Strategies in Various Subpopulations KU Leuven
Background Due to advanced antiretroviral therapy (ART), the life expectancy of people living with human immunodeficiency virus [HIV, (PLWH)] is approaching that of the general population, and the burden of comorbidities such as cardiometabolic disorders (CMD) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) are increasing. Apart from the ageing factor, compared with the general population, PLWH have higher risks to develop CMD and CVD due to intravascular ...
