Role of Autonomic Dysfunction in Initiating Postoperative Atrial Fibrillation in a Canine Sterile Pericarditis Model

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Autonomic dysfunction plays a significant role in initiating postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) by causing atrial ectopic triggers, potentially through mechanisms such as increased sympathetic activity and altered vagal tone.

Pericarditis Epistenocardica or Dressler Syndrome? An Autopsy Case

Case Reports in Medicine, 2015
Postinfarction pericarditis can be classified as “early,” referred to as pericarditis epistenocardica, or “delayed,” referred to as Dressler syndrome. The incidence of postinfarction pericarditis has decreased to

Voltage‐Gradient Mapping‐Guided Slow Pathway Ablation in Typical Atrioventricular Nodal Re‐Entrant Tachycardia

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction High‐density mapping is useful for common atrioventricular nodal re‐entrant tachycardia (AVNRT) ablation. This study aimed to evaluate the effective targets for slow pathway (SP) ablation using voltage‐gradient mapping. Methods Fifty‐two patients diagnosed with slow/fast AVNRT were enrolled.

Electrocardiograms in Acute Pericarditis [PDF]

, 2012
The pericardium surrounds the heart and consists of a visceral layer, which is contiguous with the epicardium of the heart, and a parietal layer, which forms a sac around the heart (Wann & Passen, 2008). Located between the parietal and visceral layers is a potential space called the pericardial cavity.

Submaximal 2‐day cardiopulmonary exercise testing to assess exercise capacity and post‐exertional symptom exacerbation in people with long COVID

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Long COVID has a complex pathology and a heterogeneous symptom profile that impacts quality of life and functional status. Post‐exertional symptom exacerbation (PESE) affects one‐third of people living with long COVID, but the physiological basis of impaired physical function remains poorly understood. Sixty‐eight people (age (mean ± SD): 50 ±

Physical exercise intervention in glycogen storage disease IIIa: Feasibility and multisystem benefits

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Glycogen storage disease III (GSD‐III) is caused by an inherited deficiency of the glycogen debranching enzyme. Affecting the liver, muscle and heart, GSD‐IIIa is the most common GSD‐III subtype. We evaluated the feasibility and safety of a physical exercise intervention in patients with GSD‐IIIa and its effects at the multisystem level.
