An Appreciation of Anatomy in the Molecular World
Robert H. Anderson is one of the most important and accomplished cardiac anatomists of the last decades, having made major contributions to our understanding of the anatomy of normal hearts and the pathologies of acquired and congenital heart diseases ...

Prognostic significance of right bundle branch block in patients with acute inferior myocardial infarction [PDF]
There is little information available concerning the influence of right bundle branch block (RBBB) on the prognosis of patients with inferior myocardial infarction (MI).

Nonlinear physics of electrical wave propagation in the heart: a review [PDF]
The beating of the heart is a synchronized contraction of muscle cells (myocytes) that are triggered by a periodic sequence of electrical waves (action potentials) originating in the sino-atrial node and propagating over the atria and the ventricles ...

The formation and function of the cardiac conduction system
The cardiac conduction system (CCS) consists of distinctive components that initiate and conduct the electrical impulse required for the coordinated contraction of the cardiac chambers.

Zebrafish Models in Therapeutic Research of Cardiac Conduction Disease
Malfunction in the cardiac conduction system (CCS) due to congenital anomalies or diseases can cause cardiac conduction disease (CCD), which results in disturbances in cardiac rhythm, leading to syncope and even sudden cardiac death.

Asymptotic properties of mathematical models of excitability [PDF]
We analyse small parameters in selected models of biological excitability, including Hodgkin-Huxley (1952) model of nerve axon, Noble (1962) model of heart Purkinje fibres, and Courtemanche et al. (1998) model of human atrial cells.

Conduction system pacing (CSP) has emerged as a more physiological alternative to right ventricular pacing and is also being used in selected cases for cardiac resynchronization therapy. His bundle pacing was first introduced over two decades ago and its

The rapid propagation of electrical activity through the ventricular conduction system (VCS) controls spatiotemporal contraction of the ventricles. Cardiac conduction defects or arrhythmias in humans are often associated with mutations in key cardiac ...

Muscleblind-like 3 deficit results in a spectrum of age-associated pathologies observed in myotonic dystrophy. [PDF]
Myotonic dystrophy type I (DM1) exhibits distinctive disease specific phenotypes and the accelerated onset of a spectrum of age-associated pathologies.

Air pollution-induced changes in cardiac electrophysiological properties could be a pathway linking air pollution and cardiovascular events. The evidence of air pollution effects on the cardiac conduction system is incomplete yet.
