Inherited and acquired vulnerability to ventricular arrhythmias: cardiac Na+ and K+ channels.
Physiological Reviews, 2005Mutations in cardiac Na(+) and K(+) channels can disrupt the precise balance of ionic currents that underlies normal cardiac excitation and relaxation.

Sudden cardiac death and late arrhythmias after the Fontan operation
Congenital Heart Disease, 2017OBJECTIVES We sought to examine the incidence and predictors of arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death (SCD) after Fontan operation. BACKGROUND Arrhythmias and SCD have been reported following operations for congenital heart disease, but the incidence ...

Catheter Ablation for Atrial Arrhythmias in Patients With Cardiac Amyloidosis
Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, 2016Cardiac amyloidosis (CA) is associated with increased atrial arrhythmias risk. The efficacy/safety of catheter‐based ablation therapy in patients with CA has not been adequately assessed.

The aim of this study was to review published data on gender differences in cardiac electrophysiology and in the presentation and clinical treatment of arrhythmias. The evidence from studies published to date show that women have a higher mean resting heart rate, a longer QT interval, a shorter QRS duration, and a lower QRS voltage than men. Women have

Neuromodulation for cardiac arrhythmia
Heart Rhythm, 2016The autonomic nervous system is known to play a significant role in the genesis and maintenance of arrhythmias. Neuromodulation, mostly designed to increase the parasympathetic tone and suppress the sympathetic tone, has become an emerging therapeutic strategy for the treatment of arrhythmias.

Alcohol and Cardiac Arrhythmias
Alcoholism: Clinical and Experimental Research, 1998Chronic alcohol overconsumption increases the risk for sudden death presumably due to ventricular arrhythmias. This paper is a review of the mechanisms behind alcohol‐induced arrhythmias and describe the incidence of alcohol‐related ventricular arrhythmias.

Cardiac Arrhythmias in Children
Annual Review of Medicine, 1984Recent interest in cardiac arrhythmias in children has been stimulated by a growing awareness of primary rhythm disorders in children, by the appearance of rhythm disorders following repair of many congenital heart defects, and by recent developments in clinical electrophysiology. This chapter focuses on developmental clinical cardiac electrophysiology,

Cholesterol and cardiac arrhythmias
Expert Review of Cardiovascular Therapy, 2010Cardiac arrhythmias are a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the Western world. Ventricular arrhythmias are reportedly responsible for the majority of sudden cardiac deaths and atrial fibrillation is responsible for 15% of all strokes in the USA. Recent evidence suggests a role for cholesterol in the development of these arrhythmias.
