Abstract
Computed tomography coronary angiography provides a non-invasive evaluation of coronary artery disease that includes phenotyping of atherosclerotic plaques and the surrounding perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT). Image analysis techniques have been developed to quantify atherosclerotic plaque burden and morphology as well as the associated PVAT attenuation, and emerging radiomic approaches can add further contextual information. PVAT attenuation might provide a novel measure of vascular health that could be indicative of the pathogenetic processes implicated in atherosclerosis such as inflammation, fibrosis or increased vascularity. Bidirectional signalling between the coronary artery and adjacent PVAT has been hypothesized to contribute to coronary artery disease progression and provide a potential novel measure of the risk of future cardiovascular events. However, despite the development of more advanced radiomic and artificial intelligence-based algorithms, studies involving large datasets suggest that the measurement of PVAT attenuation contributes only modest additional predictive discrimination to standard cardiovascular risk scores. In this Review, we explore the pathobiology of coronary atherosclerotic plaques and PVAT, describe their phenotyping with computed tomography coronary angiography, and discuss potential future applications in clinical risk prediction and patient management. In this Review, Dey and colleagues explore the pathobiology of coronary atherosclerotic plaques and perivascular adipose tissue, describe their phenotyping with computed tomography coronary angiography, and discuss potential future applications in clinical risk prediction and patient management.

  • Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
  • We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
  • We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
  • The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
  • Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
