Brief Summary:
An association study with large database from electronic medical record system, images, outcome analysis and genetic single nucleotide polymorphism variations by machine learning and artificial intelligence methods in a Taiwanese and Chinese medical center based population

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment
Cardiovascular Diseases Other: ASCVD risk score

Detailed Description:

In recent years, the analysis of big data database combined with computer deep learning has gradually played an important role in biomedical technology. For a large number of medical record data analysis, image analysis, single nucleotide polymorphism difference analysis, etc., all relevant research on the development and application of artificial intelligence can be observed extensively. For clinical indication, patients may receive a variety of cardiovascular routine examination and treatments, such as: cardiac ultrasound, multi-path ECG, cardiovascular and peripheral angiography, intravascular ultrasound and optical coherence tomography, electrical physiology, etc... The current study is for the investigative cardiovascular team to take the advantage that in addition to the examination and treatment the participants should appropriately receive, the investigators can also analyze the individual differences and using the "deep learning methodology" to analyze the difference in physical fitness, therapeutic effectiveness and the consideration in the safety of the treatment. The additional goal of this study is to improve the quality of health care, the realization of cardiovascular "precise medicine" especially with personal difference on genetic variation.

This study will analyze the differences in the individualization of cardiovascular disease between diseases and other subjects to further improve the quality of care for clinical patients. By using artificial intelligence deep learning system, the investigators hope to not only improve the diagnostic rate and also gain more accurately predict the patient's recovery, improve medical quality in the near future.

Ages Eligible for Study:   18 Years and older   (Adult, Older Adult)
Sexes Eligible for Study:   All
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:   No
Sampling Method:   Non-Probability Sample
Study Population

Pipeline for case enrollment:

  1. We will enroll investigating subjects from the clinics of near 10 physicians screened by our assistant or physicians themselves, with nearly 100-120 cases/month. According to our initial experience during our previous hospital-based grant in 2018 showed feasible case number to be enrolled, nearly 1000 case within 3 months enrollment. In total, we plan to recruit 5000 subjects with cardiovascular disease or with risk factors within 3 years. (IRB approval A-ER-107-149)
  2. Our study subjects will be evaluated whether they fulfill the cases criteria by an independent physician every month.
  3. In comparison with disease, the risk factor only group (500 cases) will be the matching group on genetic background and outcome comparison.
