Prevalence of congenital heart defects in Europe, 2008–2015: A registry‐based study

Birth Defects Research, Volume 114, Issue 20, Page 1404-1416, December 1, 2022., 2022
Abstract Background The total prevalence of congenital heart defects (CHDs) varies by populations and over time. Studies that examine trends in the prevalence of CHD in different regions may shed light on our understanding of the occurrence of CHD and the impact of different risk factors.

Day‐to‐day fasting plasma glucose variability on the short‐term prognosis of ST‐segment elevation myocardial infarction: A retrospective cohort study

Clinical Cardiology, Volume 45, Issue 12, Page 1246-1254, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background and Hypothesis Glycemic variability in one fact that explain the differences in cardiovascular outcomes. The short‐term fasting plasma glucose (FPG) variability may have an on major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients with ST‐segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).

A case of atrial fibrillation complicated by complete atrioventricular block

SAGE Open Medical Case Reports, 2023
Atrial fibrillation and complete atrioventricular block are two well-established arrhythmias that can share common aetiologies and risk factors. Although the two arrhythmias can co-exist, only a limited number of cases of atrial fibrillation complicated ...

A comprehensive and biophysically detailed computational model of the whole human heart electromechanics [PDF]

, 2022
While ventricular electromechanics is extensively studied, four-chamber heart models have only been addressed recently; most of these works however neglect atrial contraction. Indeed, as atria are characterized by a complex physiology influenced by the ventricular function, developing computational models able to capture the physiological atrial ...

Development of a sheep model of atrioventricular block for the application of novel therapies.

PLoS ONE, 2020
INTRODUCTION:Sheep have been adopted as a pre-clinical large animal for scientific research as they are good models of cardiac anatomy and physiology, and allow for investigation of pathophysiological processes which occur in the large mammalian heart ...

A curious alliance: Sinus nodal dysfunction precipitating atrioventricular block

Journal of Arrhythmia, 2014
An elderly woman presented with recurrent syncope. Sinus bradycardia and sinoatrial block were seen on the electrocardiogram; however, PR interval prolongation after sinus pauses suggested atrioventricular conduction system disease.

Mutation update for the ACTN2 gene

Human Mutation, Volume 43, Issue 12, Page 1745-1756, December 2022., 2022
Abstract ACTN2 encodes alpha‐actinin‐2, a protein expressed in human cardiac and skeletal muscle. The protein, located in the sarcomere Z‐disk, functions as a link between the anti‐parallel actin filaments. This important structural protein also binds N‐terminal titins, and thus contributes to sarcomere stability.
