Complex versus simple models: ion-channel cardiac toxicity prediction
There is growing interest in applying detailed mathematical models of the heart for ion-channel related cardiac toxicity prediction. However, a debate as to whether such complex models are required exists. Here an assessment in the predictive performance between two established large-scale biophysical cardiac models and a simple linear model Bnet was conducted. Three ion-channel data-sets were ...
متن کاملComparison of Simple Versus Performance-Based Fall Prediction Models
OBJECTIVE To compare the predictive ability of standard falls prediction models based on physical performance assessments with more parsimonious prediction models based on self-reported data. DESIGN We developed a series of fall prediction models progressing in complexity and compared area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) across models. SETTING National Health and Agi...
متن کاملPolicy Sensitivity Analysis: Simple versus Complex Fishery Models
Sensitivity analysis is often used to judge the sensitivity of model behaviour to uncertain assumptions about model formulations and parameter values. Since the ultimate goal of modelling is typically policy recommendation, one may suspect that it is even more useful to test the sensitivity of policy recommendations. A major reason for this is that behaviour sensitivity is not necessarily a rel...
متن کاملFunctional genomics of cardiac ion channel genes.
Ion channels are an ensemble of specialized membrane proteins that act in concert to create and modulate the electrical activity of many excitable cells, including cardiac myocytes. Following completion of the sequencing of various genomes, including that of the human, the complete repertoire of ion channel genes has been elucidated for different species. How transcripts issued from this gene c...
متن کاملCardiac ion channel effects of tolterodine.
Tolterodine is a muscarinic antagonist widely used in the treatment of urinary incontinence. Although tolterodine has not been reported to alter cardiac repolarization, it is chemically related to other muscarinic antagonists known to prolong cardiac repolarization. For this reason, we studied the effects of tolterodine on cardiac ion channels and action potential recordings. Using patch-clamp ...
