This study evaluates mid-term ventricular performance in patients with transposition of the great arteries after arterial switch operation using conventional echocardiographic parameters, TDI, STE, and unsupervised machine learning. Prospective analysis in 124 patients combines conventional statistics and machine learning to quantify systolic and diastolic function. Unsupervised clustering identifies three patient clusters, including a subgroup with older age at surgery and more impaired function alongside higher reoperation and intervention rates.",{"@graph":14,"@context":65},[15,34,56],{"@type":16,"itemListElement":17},"BreadcrumbList",[18,23,27,31],{"item":19,"name":20,"@type":21,"position":22},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",1,{"item":24,"name":25,"@type":21,"position":26},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",2,{"item":28,"name":29,"@type":21,"position":30},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/healthcare/","Healthcare",3,{"item":32,"name":10,"@type":21,"position":33},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/using-machine-learning-analysis-to-describe-patterns-in-tissue-doppler-and-speckle-tracking-echocardiography-in-patients-with-transposition-of-the-great-arteries-after-arterial-switch-operation/128698/",4,{"url":32,"name":10,"@type":35,"image":36,"author":41,"headline":10,"publisher":44,"fileFormat":47,"inLanguage":8,"description":12,"dateModified":48,"datePublished":49,"encodingFormat":47,"isAccessibleForFree":50,"interactionStatistic":51},"DigitalDocument",{"url":37,"@type":38,"width":39,"height":40},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/using-machine-learning-analysis-to-describe-patterns-in-tissue-doppler-and-speckle-tracking-echocardiography-in-patients-with-transposition-of-the-great-arteries-after-arterial-switch-operation/128698.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":42,"@type":43},"Aurora","Person",{"url":19,"name":45,"@type":46},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-09-19","2026-08-06",true,{"@type":52,"interactionType":53,"userInteractionCount":55},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":54},"ViewAction",9,{"@type":57,"mainEntity":58},"FAQPage",[59],{"name":60,"@type":61,"acceptedAnswer":62},"What did unsupervised clustering show about patient subgroups?","Question",{"text":63,"@type":64},"Clustering within the TGA population revealed three clusters, and one cluster corresponded to patients with older age at surgery, the most reduced ventricular performance, and the highest rates of reoperations and interventions.","Answer","https://schema.org",{"og:url":32,"og:type":67,"og:title":10,"og:site_name":45,"og:description":12},"article",{"robots":69,"canonical":32},"index,follow",{"doc_id":71,"site_id":7},128698,1786002730,{"code":4,"msg":74,"data":75},"success",[76,80,84,88,93,98,102,107,111,114,118],{"id":22,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":77,"show_sort_weight":78,"slug":79},"Story & Novel",90,"story-novel",{"id":26,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":81,"show_sort_weight":82,"slug":83},"Literature",80,"literature",{"id":33,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":85,"show_sort_weight":86,"slug":87},"Exam",70,"exam",{"id":89,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":90,"show_sort_weight":91,"slug":92},5,"Comic",60,"comic",{"id":94,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":95,"show_sort_weight":96,"slug":97},6,"Technology",50,"technology",{"id":99,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":29,"show_sort_weight":100,"slug":101},7,40,"healthcare",{"id":103,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":104,"show_sort_weight":105,"slug":106},8,"Research & Report",30,"research-report",{"id":55,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":108,"show_sort_weight":109,"slug":110},"Religion & Spirituality",20,"religion-spirituality",{"id":109,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":112,"show_sort_weight":109,"slug":113},"World Cup","world-cup",{"id":115,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":116,"show_sort_weight":115,"slug":117},10,"Lifestyle","lifestyle",{"id":119,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":120,"show_sort_weight":89,"slug":121},19,"General","general",{"code":4,"msg":74,"data":123},{"doc_id":71,"user_id":124,"nickname":42,"user_avatar":125,"doc_module":4,"category_id":99,"category_name":29,"doc_title":10,"doc_description":12,"doc_content":126,"file_id":127,"file_url":128,"file_type":129,"file_size":130,"view_count":55,"is_deleted":4,"is_public":22,"is_downloadable":22,"audit_status":22,"page_count":55,"language":131,"language_code":8,"site_id":7,"html_lang":8,"table_of_contents":132,"faqs":133,"seo_title":134,"seo_description":12,"update_tm":72,"read_time":135},962084926284,"https://ap-avatar.wpscdn.com/davatar_29158cc5080c5b710cf443261637dec0","Using machine learning analysis to describe patterns in tissue Doppler and speckle tracking echocardiography in patients with transposition of the great arteries after arterial switch operation☆  \nMonteros, [C.T.E. de](C.T.E. de) los; Palen, R.L.F. van der; Eynde, J. van den; Rammeloo, L.; Hazekamp, M.G.; Blom, N.A.; ... ; Harkel, A.D.J.T.  \nCitation  \nMonteros, [C.

We aimed to study the ventricular performance in patients with transposition of the great arteries (TGA) at mid-term follow-up after the arterial switch operation (ASO) with advanced echocardiographic techniques. In addition, we sought to discover new clinical phenotypes using unsupervised machine learning.\u003Cbr>Methods: Conventional, TDI and STE echocardiographic parameters were prospectively obtained from 124 TGA patients (66.1 % male, age 10.8 ± 5.1 years, 24.2 % with ventricular septal defect) in this observational study. The data was analyzed with conventional statistics and new machine learning techniques.\u003Cbr>Results: TGA patients had reduced biventricular systolic (septal s’ Z-score − 2.28 ± 1.26; RV s’ Z-score − 2.16 ± 0.71; mean left ventricular longitudinal strain Z-score of the LV-2.49 ± 1.68) and RV diastolic performance (RVE/e’ Z-score 2.35 ± 1.70) mid-term after ASO. Unsupervised clustering within the TGA population revealed 3 clusters. Interestingly, cluster 3 defined a group of patients with older age at ASO, the most reduced ventricular performance as well as the highest rates of reoperations and interventions.\u003Cbr>Conclusions: Assessment of ventricular performance with TDI and STE 10 years after ASO showed that TGA patients have decr","cbCaiaFKYGZw7MHQ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiaFKYGZw7MHQ","pdf",2357130,"English","# Background\n# Methods\n# Results\n# Conclusions","[{\"question\":\"What did unsupervised clustering show about patient subgroups?\",\"answer\":\"Clustering within the TGA population revealed three clusters, and one cluster corresponded to patients with older age at surgery, the most reduced ventricular performance, and the highest rates of reoperations and interventions.\"}]","Using machine learning analysis to describe patterns in tissue Doppler and speckle tracking echocardiography in patients with transposition of the great arteries after arterial switch operation | PDF",23]
