Schematic overview showing that forkhead box O6, opposite strand (Foxo6os) acts as a “scaffold”, directly binding myosin‐binding protein‐C (MYBPC3) and recruiting protein kinase C (PKC‐α) to mediate site‐specific phosphorylation of MYBPC3. This post‐translational modification supports cardiac contraction by regulating L‐type Ca2+ channels, especially ...

Handgrip strength test for the diagnosis of long QT syndrome
Long QT syndrome (LQTS) assessment is based on the QT/ÖRR equation (the so-called Bazett's formula) and calculating the corrected QT (QTc). However, this formula reliably estimates the QT interval in the heart rate range (HR) of 60-90 bpm, which makes it

Ventricular tachycardia associated with lacosamide co-medication in drug-resistant epilepsy. [PDF]
We report a case of sustained ventricular tachycardia following the initiation of lacosamide as adjunctive epilepsy treatment. A 49-year-old male with intractable frontal lobe seizures experienced severe ventricular tachycardia following the addition of ...

Atrial Fibroblasts‐Derived Extracellular Vesicles Exacerbate Atrial Arrhythmogenesis
Exosome miR‐224‐5p derived from angiotensin II‐treated atrial fibroblasts creates a substrate for AF by promoting atrial electrical remodeling. Increased exosome miR‐224‐5p enhances AF susceptibility by inhibiting CACNA1c expression and decreasing ICa current of atrial cardiomyocytes.

Endothelin and the ischaemic heart [PDF]
Soon after its identification as a powerful vasoconstrictor peptide, endothelin (ET-1) was implicated as a detrimental agent involved in determining the outcome of myocardial ischaemia and reperfusion.

A novel hypothesis: The disease of sympathetic overdrive (DSO) as a unifying mechanism for comorbidity in the elderly. ABSTRACT The coexistence of multimorbidity and geriatric syndromes is a big character and role target to manage for the clinic works in older age, but related theories still require innovation and exploration.

Ankyrin‐2 genetic variants: A case of Ankyrin‐B syndrome
Inherited cardiac arrhythmias (ICA) have become one of the leading causes of sudden cardiac death in people under 40 years old. Variants in the ankyrin‐B or ankyrin‐2 genes will result in several cardiac arrhythmias ranging from sinus node dysfunction to

Gene Therapy in Cardiac Arrhythmias [PDF]
Gene therapy has progressed from a dream to a bedside reality in quite a few human diseases. From its first application in adenosine deaminase deficiency, through the years, its application has evolved to vascular angiogenesis and cardiac arrhythmias.

Distribution of KAP scores for participants ≤ 65 versus > 65 years. ABSTRACT Objectives Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common clinical arrhythmia. Failure to identify AF leaves patients at a considerably higher risk of disability and death, making its early screening and prevention extremely important. This study aimed to investigate knowledge, attitude,
