The overarching goal of the present work is to contribute to the understanding of the relations between fetal heart rate (FHR) temporal dynamics and the well-being of the fetus, notably in terms of predicting cardiovascular decompensation (CVD). It makes uses of an established animal model of human labor, where fourteen near-term ovine fetuses subjected to umbilical cord occlusions (UCO) were instrumented to permit regular intermittent measurements of metabolites, pH, and continuous recording of electrocardiogram (ECG) and systemic arterial blood pressure (to identify CVD) during UCO. ECG-derived FHR was digitized at the sampling rate of 1000 Hz and resampled to 4Hz, as used in clinical routine. We focused on four FHR variability features which are tunable to temporal scales of FHR dynamics, robustly computable from FHR sampled at $4$Hz and within short-time sliding windows, hence permitting a time-dependent, or local, analysis of FHR which helps dealing with signal noise. Results show the sensitivity of the proposed features for early detection of CVD, correlation to metabolites and pH, useful for early acidosis detection and the importance of coarse time scales (2.5 to 8 seconds) which are not disturbed by the low FHR sampling rate. Further, we introduce the performance of an individualized self-referencing metric of the distance to healthy state, based on a combination of the four features. We demonstrate that this novel metric, applied to clinically available FHR temporal dynamics alone, accurately predicts the time occurrence of CVD which heralds a clinically significant degradation of the fetal health reserve to tolerate the trial of labor.

We demonstrate the robust scale-invariance in the probability density function (PDF) of detrended healthy human heart rate increments, which is preserved not only in a quiescent condition, but also in a dynamic state where the mean level of heart rat
e is dramatically changing. This scale-independent and fractal structure is markedly different from the scale-dependent PDF evolution observed in a turbulent-like, cascade heart rate model. These results strongly support the view that healthy human heart rate is controlled to converge continually to a critical state.
Blood system functions are very diverse and important for most processes in human organism. One of its primary functions is matter transport among different parts of the organism including tissue supplying with oxygen, carbon dioxide excretion, drug
propagation etc. Forecasting of these processes under normal conditions and in the presence of different pathologies like atherosclerosis, loss of blood, anatomical abnormalities, pathological changing in chemical transformations and others is significant issue for many physiologists. In this connection should be pointed out that global processes are of special interest as they include feedbacks and interdependences among different regions of the organism. Thus the main goal of this work is to develop the model allowing to describe effectively blood flow in the whole organism. As we interested in global processes the models of the four vascular trees (arterial and venous parts of systemic and pulmonary circulation) must be closed with heart and peripheral circulation models. As one of the model applications the processes of the blood loss is considered in the end of the paper.
Cancer patients have a higher risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality than the general population. Low dose computed tomography (LDCT) for lung cancer screening offers an opportunity for simultaneous CVD risk estimation in at-risk patients. Ou
r deep learning CVD risk prediction model, trained with 30,286 LDCTs from the National Lung Cancer Screening Trial, achieved an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.871 on a separate test set of 2,085 subjects and identified patients with high CVD mortality risks (AUC of 0.768). We validated our model against ECG-gated cardiac CT based markers, including coronary artery calcification (CAC) score, CAD-RADS score, and MESA 10-year risk score from an independent dataset of 335 subjects. Our work shows that, in high-risk patients, deep learning can convert LDCT for lung cancer screening into a dual-screening quantitative tool for CVD risk estimation.
Hybrid modeling, the combination of first principle and machine learning models, is an emerging research field that gathers more and more attention. Even if hybrid models produce formidable results for academic examples, there are still different tec
hnical challenges that hinder the use of hybrid modeling in real-world applications. By presenting NeuralFMUs, the fusion of a FMU, a numerical ODE solver and an ANN, we are paving the way for the use of a variety of first principle models from different modeling tools as parts of hybrid models. This contribution handles the hybrid modeling of a complex, real-world example: Starting with a simplified 1D-fluid model of the human cardiovascular system (arterial side), the aim is to learn neglected physical effects like arterial elasticity from data. We will show that the hybrid modeling process is more comfortable, needs less system knowledge and is therefore less error-prone compared to modeling solely based on first principle. Further, the resulting hybrid model has improved in computation performance, compared to a pure first principle white-box model, while still fulfilling the requirements regarding accuracy of the considered hemodynamic quantities. The use of the presented techniques is explained in a general manner and the considered use-case can serve as example for other modeling and simulation applications in and beyond the medical domain.
Three-dimensional cardiovascular fluid dynamics simulations typically require computation of several cardiac cycles before they reach a periodic solution, rendering them computationally expensive. Furthermore, there is currently no standardized metho
d to determine whether a simulation has yet reached that periodic state. In this work, we propose use of the asymptotic error measure to quantify the difference between simulation results and their ideal periodic state using lumped-parameter modeling. We further show that initial conditions are crucial in reducing computational time and develop an automated framework to generate appropriate initial conditions from a one-dimensional model of blood flow. We demonstrate the performance of our initialization method using six patient-specific models from the Vascular Model Repository. In our examples, our initialization protocol achieves periodic convergence within one or two cardiac cycles, leading to a significant reduction in computational cost compared to standard methods. All computational tools used in this work are implemented in the open-source software platform SimVascular. Automatically generated initial conditions have the potential to significantly reduce computation time in cardiovascular fluid dynamics simulations.
