Predictive factors of atrioventricular conduction disorders [PDF]

Romanian Medical Journal
Atrioventricular conduction disorders represent an alteration in the normal function of the heart’s electrical conduction system, a system that connects the atria and ventricles through the atrio-ventricular node and the His-Purkinje system. Consequently,

Cerebrovascular regulation during heat stress

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Given that the brain is a highly metabolic organ and is enclosed by the skull, effective regulation of cerebral blood flow (CBF), not only for oxygen and nutrients supply but also as a means of convective heat exchange, is critical for preventing excessive elevations in brain temperature.

Complete Heart Block Lacking Functional Anatomical Impairment in the Conduction System

Pakistan Journal of Medicine and Dentistry
Introduction: Complete heart block also known as third-degree atrioventricular block (AV block) is a condition in which there is no conduction of the impulse produce in the sinoatrial node (SA node) in the atrium to the ventricle.1 Complete heart ...

Not only Van Gogh: a case of BRASH syndrome with concomitant digoxin toxicity

Journal of Medical Case Reports
Background Bradycardia, renal failure, atrioventricular (AV) node blocking, shock, and hyperkalemia syndrome is a potentially life-threatening clinical condition characterized by bradycardia, renal failure, atrioventricular (AV) node blocking, shock, and

Repolarization adaptation to rapid change in heart rate in human models – a review

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend This review focuses on non‐invasive assessment of repolarization duration and dispersion (heterogeneity) adaptation to change in heart rate (HR). HR was increased incrementally by left atrial pacing during an electrophysiology (EP) study and by a bolus injection of atropine and in a step up/down fashion by repeated right atrial ...

Morphological Substrates for Atrial Arrhythmogenesis in a Heart With Atrioventricular Septal Defect

Frontiers in Physiology, 2018
Due to advances in corrective surgery, congenital heart disease has an ever growing patient population. Atrial arrhythmias are frequently observed pre- and post-surgical correction. Pharmaceutical antiarrhythmic therapy is not always effective, therefore

Cannabinoid exposure during pregnancy: Cardiorespiratory effects and offspring outcomes

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Prenatal exposure to cannabinoids has been investigated across human and animal studies to understand its impact on physiological development. Evidence suggests that early‐life cannabinoid exposure influence multiple developmental processes, extending beyond neurodevelopmental outcomes to potentially affect placental function ...

Morphology and electrophysiology of the mammalian atrioventricular node

Physiological Reviews, 1988
The AV node of those mammalian species in which it has been thoroughly investigated (rabbit, ferret, and humans) consists of various cell types: transitional cells, midnodal (or typical nodal cells), lower nodal cells, and cells of the AV bundle. There are at least two inputs to the AV node, a posterior one via the crista terminalis and an anterior ...

Computational model of haemodynamics during atrial fibrillation

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend We developed a simplified computational model that replicates patient‐specific haemodynamics during both normal sinus rhythm and atrial fibrillation (AF). Our computational model comprises: (1) an electrical subsystem that generates unco‐ordinated atrial and irregular ventricular activation times characteristic of AF and (2) a ...

Small‐conductance Ca2⁺‐activated K⁺ channels in cardiac excitation–contraction coupling: Bridging mitochondria, sarcolemma and antiarrhythmic therapy

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Mitochondrial SK channel enhancement reduces cardiac arrhythmia trigger. Spontaneous sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ release via hyperactive RyR2s underlies an increased arrhythmia trigger, promoting early and delayed afterdepolarizations during stress. Hyperactive RyR2s causes rise in cytosolic [Ca2+] during diastole. Clearance
