Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Cardiovascular disease is the highest cause of mortality worldwide. Recent advances in molecular epidemiological methods and techniques have remarkably enhanced cardiovascular health. Techniques such as genomics, metabolomics, proteomics, and transcriptomics have generated a large amount of data.
In addition, novel analytical approaches in genomics, such as genome-wide association analysis, genetic correlation, and gene-set enrichment analysis, have emerged in the last decade, improving our understanding of the biological pathways involved in cardiovascular diseases. Methods such as Mendelian randomization analysis and polygenic risk scores have improved our insight into causal factors. Machine learning approaches are increasingly being applied in the field and provide a better understanding of various predictors of cardiovascular diseases. In this issue, we are seeking to obtain insight into the advances that these methods and techniques have brought into the field.
The topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Accelerating patient benefit in cardiology using artificial intelligence;
- Artificial intelligence for public health;
- Cardiac image processing;
- Data mining in cardiology;
- Decision support systems in cardiovascular health;
- Digital cardiology;
- Machine learning and deep learning methods in cardiovascular health;
- Machine learning in drug development in cardiology;
- Machine learning to handle cardiology hospital records;
- Personalised cardiology using machine learning;
- The prediction of cardiovascular risk (hypertension, myocardial infarction, atherosclerosis, stroke, etc.).

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Healthcare is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
