PRRX1 Loss‐of‐Function Mutations Underlying Familial Atrial Fibrillation
Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common form of clinical cardiac dysrhythmia responsible for thromboembolic cerebral stroke, congestive heart failure, and death. Aggregating evidence highlights the strong genetic basis of AF. Nevertheless,

Permanent junctional reciprocating tachycardia (PJRT) is an uncommon form of atrioventricular reentrant tachycardia due to an accessory pathway characterized by slow and decremental retrograde conduction.

Arrhythmic risk in elderly patients candidates to transcatheter aortic valve replacement. predicative role of repolarization temporal dispersion [PDF]
Degenerative aortic valve stenosis (AS) is associated to ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death, as well as mental stress in specific patients. In such a context, substrate, autonomic imbalance as well as repolarization dispersion abnormalities ...

Global alternans instability and its effect on non-linear wave propagation : dynamical Wenckebach block and self terminating spiral waves [PDF]
The main mechanism of formation of reentrant cardiac arrhythmias is via formation of waveblocks at heterogeneities of cardiac tissue. We report that heterogeneity and the area of waveblock can extend itself in space and can result formation of new ...

Arrhythmias are seldom observed in the newborn period and rarely lead to serious consequences. Because they may be a continuation of fetal arrhythmias, newborn arrhythmias are different from those occurring at later ages. Here we describe a case of a newborn presented with tachycardia at birth.

Management of Arrhythmias in Cardiac Amyloidosis.
Cardiac amyloidosis is characterized by extracellular protein fibril deposition in the myocardium leading to restrictive heart failure. Both atrial and ventricular arrhythmias, along with conduction disease, are common in cardiac amyloidosis, and are ...

Increasing maternal mortality and incidence of arrhythmias in pregnancy have been noted over the past 2 decades in the United States. Pregnancy is associated with a greater risk of arrhythmias, and patients with a history of arrhythmias are at ...

Regulation of gap junction function; the role of nitric oxide. [PDF]
Myocardial ischemia resulting from sudden occlusion of a coronary artery is one of the major causes in the appearance of severe, often life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias.

AIMS Physical activity reduces cardiovascular disease burden and mortality, although its relationship with cardiac arrhythmias is less certain. The aim of this study was to assess the association between self-reported physical activity and atrial ...
