Echocardiography and cardiac arrhythmias

open access: yesHellenic Journal of Cardiology, 2018
Cardiac arrhythmias refer to any abnormality or disturbance in the normal activation sequence of the myocardium and may be indicative of structural heart disease and the cause of significant cardiovascular complications and sudden cardiac death.

Endothelin and the ischaemic heart [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Soon after its identification as a powerful vasoconstrictor peptide, endothelin (ET-1) was implicated as a detrimental agent involved in determining the outcome of myocardial ischaemia and reperfusion.

Platelets and Cardiac Arrhythmia [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2010
Sudden cardiac death (SCD) remains one of the most prevalent modes of death in industrialized countries, and myocardial ischemia due to thrombotic coronary occlusion is its primary cause. The role of platelets in the occurrence of SCD extends beyond coronary flow impairment by clot formation.

Dysglycemia and arrhythmias [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023

A KATP channel opener inhibited myocardial reperfusion action potential shortening and arrhythmias [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Low concentrations of certain K<sub>ATP</sub> channel openers have been reported to exert a moderate inhibitory effect on arrhythmias during post-ischaemic early myocardial reperfusion, but the accompanying effects on the time course of ...

Regulation of gap junction function; the role of nitric oxide. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
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.

Genetic basis and molecular biology of cardiac arrhythmias in cardiomyopathies. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Cardiac arrhythmias are common, often the first, and sometimes the life-threatening manifestations of hereditary cardiomyopathies. Pathogenic variants in several genes known to cause hereditary cardiac arrhythmias have also been identified in the ...

Common Genetic Variation Near the Phospholamban Gene Is Associated with Cardiac Repolarisation: Meta-Analysis of Three Genome-Wide Association Studies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
To identify loci affecting the electrocardiographic QT interval, a measure of cardiac repolarisation associated with risk of ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death, we conducted a meta-analysis of three genome-wide association studies (GWAS ...

MicroRNAs in cardiac arrhythmia: DNA sequence variation of MiR-1 and MiR-133A in long QT syndrome. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Long QT syndrome (LQTS) is a genetic cardiac condition associated with prolonged ventricular repolarization, primarily a result of perturbations in cardiac ion channels, which predisposes individuals to life-threatening arrhythmias.
