Spatio-Temporal Analysis of Acute Myocardial Ischaemia Based on Entropy–Complexity Plane by Esteban R. Valverde, Victoria Vampa, Osvaldo A. Rosso, Pedro D. Arini

“…Subsequently, we analysed the positioning in the <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><mi mathvariant="script">H</mi><mo>×</mo><mi mathvariant="script">C</mi></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula> causal plane for the control and ischaemia. In LAD occlusion, decreased entropy and increased complexity can be seen, i.e., the behaviour is more predictable with an increase in the degree of complexity of the system. …”

Methodological Tutorial Series for Epidemiological Studies: Confounder Selection and Sensitivity Analyses to Unmeasured Confounding From Epidemiological and Statistical Perspective... by Kosuke Inoue, Kentaro Sakamaki, Sho Komukai, Yuri Ito, Atsushi Goto, Tomohiro Shinozaki

“…In observational studies, identifying and adjusting for a sufficient set of confounders is crucial for accurately estimating the causal effect of the exposure on the outcome. Even in studies with large sample sizes, which typically benefit from small variances in estimates, there is a risk of producing estimates that are precisely inaccurate if the study suffers from systematic errors or biases, including confounding bias. …”

Comparison of Atrial Fibrillation in the Young versus That in the Elderly: A Review by Rajiv Sankaranarayanan, Graeme Kirkwood, Katharine Dibb, Clifford J. Garratt

“…Traditional thinking suggests that the causal factors and pathogenesis of the condition in the young with structurally normal atria but electrophysiological “triggers” in the form of pulmonary vein ectopics leading to lone AF are in stark contrast to that in the elderly who have AF primarily due to an abnormal substrate consisting of fibrosed and dilated atria acting in concert with the pulmonary vein triggers. …”
