Postrest Shortening of the Action Potential Duration in Rabbits
Previous evidence has shown that the action potential duration of rabbit ventricular muscle cells shortens after a rest period (postrest shortening). However, there has not been much research on postrest shortening in the intact heart. We recorded transmembrane action potentials (TAPs) of isolated papillary muscle from rabbit ventricle with glass ...

ABSTRACT Background Patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis commonly experience reduced physical function, fatigue, poor sleep quality, and impaired health‐related quality of life. Intradialytic exercise has been proposed as a non‐pharmacological strategy to improve these outcomes.
