Intelligent Micro/Nanorobots for Targeted Interventional Therapy: From Bench to Clinic

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Zirui Zhang et al. reviewed the application and challenges of mobile nanomachines in interventional therapy. By converting exogenous energy, including chemical, magnetic, optical, and ultrasonic sources, into mechanical forces, micro/nanorobots (MNRs) enable precise actuation at unprecedented scales. Evolving far beyond traditional drug delivery, these

Is Initiating NOACs for Atrial Arrhythmias Safe in Adults with Congenital Heart Disease?

open access: yes, 2017
Background: In recent years, non-vitamin K antagonist (VKA) oral anticoagulants (NOACs) have been increasingly prescribed to adults with congenital heart disease (CHD) and atrial arrhythmias without good evidence for either safety or efficacy. To address

Systematic review of renal denervation for the management of cardiac arrhythmias [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Background In the wake of the controversy surrounding the SYMPLICITY HTN-3 trial and data from subsequent trials, this review aims to perform an updated and more comprehensive review of the impact of renal sympathetic denervation on cardiac arrhythmias.

Synchronization‐Dissipation in the Cardiorespiratory System

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
By modeling central nervous coupling and viscoelastic interactions in the cardiorespiratory system we show that synchronization produces a 10% gain in cardiac efficiency in humans. It is surmised that respiratory sinus arrhythmia improves cardiac pumping efficiency by reducing dynamic stress and power dissipation in the pulmonary vasculature.

Arrhythmias May Hide a Genetic Cardiomyopathy in Left Ventricular Hypertrabeculation in Children: A Single-Center Experience

open access: yesChildren
Background. Left ventricular hypertrabeculation (LVHT) is a myocardial disorder with different clinical manifestations, from total absence of symptoms to heart failure, arrhythmias, sudden cardiac death (SCD), and thromboembolic events. It is challenging

The Role of Altered Calcium-Handling in Mechanically-Induced Arrhythmias During Acute Regional Ischemia

open access: yes, 2016
Sudden Cardiac Death, a leading cause of death in Canada, commonly occurs as a result of arrhythmias occurring in the first hour of acute regional ischemia (ARI) after coronary artery occlusion.

Altered Calcium Handling and Ventricular Arrhythmias in Acute Ischemia

open access: yes, 2016
Acute ischemia results in deadly cardiac arrhythmias that are a major contributor to sudden cardiac death (SCD). The electrophysiological changes involved have been extensively studied, yet the mechanisms of ventricular arrhythmias during acute ischemia ...
