Incidence of carditis and predictors of pacemaker implantation in patients hospitalized with Lyme disease

PLoS ONE, 2021
Background Lyme carditis, defined as direct infection of cardiac tissue by Borrelia bacteria, affects up to 10% of patients with Lyme disease. The most frequently reported clinical manifestation of Lyme carditis is cardiac conduction system disease.

The Cardiac Conduction System [PDF]

Circulation, 2011
The human heart beats 2.5 billion times during a normal lifespan, a feat accomplished by cells of the cardiac conduction system (CCS). The functional components of the CCS can be broadly divided into the impulse-generating nodes and the impulse-propagating His-Purkinje system.

Development of the Cardiac Conduction System. [PDF]

Cold Spring Harb Perspect Biol, 2020
The cardiac conduction system initiates and propagates each heartbeat. Specialized conducting cells are a well-conserved phenomenon across vertebrate evolution, although mammalian and avian species harbor specific components unique to organisms with four-chamber hearts.

Left Bundle Branch Pacing in Transthyretin Cardiac Amyloidosis and Alternating Bundle Branch Block

JACC: Case Reports, 2020
Progressive conduction system disease affects patients with transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis, often requiring permanent pacing as the His-Purkinje system is affected. We present a case of left bundle branch pacing in a patient with transthyretin cardiac

Desmin variants: Trigger for cardiac arrhythmias?

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Desmin (DES) is a classical type III intermediate filament protein encoded by the DES gene. Desmin is abundantly expressed in cardiac, skeletal, and smooth muscle cells.

Electrocardiographic patch devices and contemporary wireless cardiac monitoring. [PDF]

, 2015
Cardiac electrophysiologic derangements often coexist with disorders of the circulatory system. Capturing and diagnosing arrhythmias and conduction system disease may lead to a change in diagnosis, clinical management and patient outcomes.

Engineering a conduction-consistent cardiac patch with rGO/PLCL electrospun nanofibrous membranes and human iPSC-derived cardiomyocytes

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023
The healthy human heart has special directional arrangement of cardiomyocytes and a unique electrical conduction system, which is critical for the maintenance of effective contractions.
