Atrial Flutter in a Newborn: a Case Report

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Emergencies, 2020
Introduction: The incidence of cardiac arrhythmia is approximately 1% in the neonatal period and 1–3% in late pregnancy. Atrial flutter (AF), a rhythm disorder based on the mechanism of reentry, represents approximately 32% of all neonatal cardiac ...

Should beta-blocker therapy be reduced or withdrawn after an episode of decompensated heart failure? Results from COMET. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
BACKGROUND: It is unclear whether beta-blocker therapy should be reduced or withdrawn in patients who develop acute decompensated heart failure (HF). We studied the relationship between changes in beta-blocker dose and outcome in patients surviving a

Connexin43 Deficiency Leads to Ventricular Arrhythmias by Reprogramming Proline Metabolism

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The study demonstrated that connexin43 (Cx43) knockout caused arrhythmic phenotype and decreased proline content in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, Cx43 interacts with the amino acid transporter SNAT2 (sodium‐dependent neutral amino acid transporter), and its deficiency disrupts proline transport and metabolism.

Amiodarone-related Pneumonitis

open access: yesJournal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2007
Amiodarone-related pneumonitis is a potentially limiting factor for amiodarone usage. However, it is believed that amiodarone-related pneumonitis is unlikely to occur during low-dose and short courses of therapy. We report three patients who received low-

Pharmacology of Antiarrhythmics: Quinidine, Beta-Blockers, Diphenylhydantoin, Bretylium [PDF]

open access: yes, 1973
The electrophysiologic effects of the antiarrhythmic drugs, presented elsewhere in this symposium, form only one of the bases for the selection of a therapeutic agent in any given clinical situation.
