Low-tube-voltage techniques have been investigated for coronary [13, 14], aortic [21] and pulmonary CTA [22, 23], and similar image quality compared to standard-tube-voltage acquisition with reduced radiation dose and contrast media requirements has been reported.
Sample text:```…has been described variously, as intramural coronary artery, mural coronary artery, coronary artery overbridging, and most commonly myocardial bridging (MB) (Canyigit et al. 2009; Lazoura et al. 2010; Mohlenkamp et al. 2002; Montaudon et al. 2007; Ozbag et al. 2002; Ozbag and Kervancioglu 2004).```

Sample text:```Trials were considered eligible if they satisfied the following inclusion criteria: (1) RCTs comparing RIC versus no conditioning in patients with AMI; (2) patients were treated by primary PCI or thrombolysis; (3) RIC was induced by intermittent limb ischemia–reperfusion; and (4) trials at least reported one of the following outcome measures, including enzymatic myocardial infarction size as assessed by serum peak creatine```

Sample text:```In this study, the proposed method is based on atrial activity extraction using an echo state network (ESN) re­ cently introduced as a unified solution to the problem of QRST cancellation in the presence of substantial variation in beat morphology and/or occasional ectopic beats [7].```

Sample text:```These results are in line with morphological abnormalities in a rabbit model of pneumococcal meningitis [8, 47], in neonatal and adult rat models [7, 51] and in human autopsy cases [20].```

Sample text:```These are in keeping with earlier studies on the steadystate response (2, 5, 8), step-function response, (3, 5, 6, 14) and sinusoidal response ( 14) of the various vascular beds.```

Sample text:```However, we did not observe any association of maternal free thyroxine with child neurodevelopmental outcomes, agreeing with the Project Viva results (11) but not with those of other studies (8‚Äì10, 43).```

Sample text:```The admission assessment included determining the risk factors for cerebral infarction,13,14 clinical ischemic stroke category (National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke1), and disease severity using the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale.15

Abbreviations
AF = Atrial fibrillation
LAA = Left atrial appendage
LAA eV = LAA emptying flow velocity
LAD = Left atrial dimension
LAWV = LAA peak wall velocity
ROC = Receiver operating characteristic
SEC = Spontaneous echocardiographic contrast
TEE = Transesophageal echocardiography
TTE = Transthoracic echocardiography
We defined patients who had no histories of AF and no documented AF on continuous electrocardiographic monitoring during hospitalization as the sinus rhythm group, patients who had histories of AF before admission and/or continuously documented AF on continuous electrocardiographic monitoring during hospitalization as having chronic AF, and patients who had AF at admission and recovered to normal sinus rhythm during hospitalization and/or showed sinus rhythm at admission and documented transient AF on continuous electrocardiographic monitoring during hospitalization as having paroxysmal AF.```
