Incidence and prognosis of cardiac conduction system diseases in hypertension: the STEP trial
Patients with cardiac conduction system diseases (CSD) may have increased incidence and mortality of cardiovascular events. Here we report a post hoc analysis of the Strategy of Blood Pressure Intervention in the Elderly Hypertensive Patients (STEP) randomized clinical trial (ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT03015311) concerning the effect of intensive ...

Patients with adult congenital heart disease (ACHD) often develop heart failure (HF). Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) may provide benefit, but evidence is limited to observational studies and guidelines are extrapolated from acquired HF.This study aimed to systematically evaluate the effects of CRT in ACHD, including both biventricular pacing ...

Conduction system disorders represent a frequent complication in patients undergoing surgical (surgical aortic valve replacement, SAVR) or percutaneous (transcatheter aortic valve implantation, TAVI) aortic valve replacement. The purpose of this survey was to evaluate experienced operators approach in this clinical condition.This survey was ...

Regulation of Cardiac Conduction and Arrhythmias by Ankyrin/Spectrin-Based Macromolecular Complexes
The cardiac conduction system is an extended network of excitable tissue tasked with generation and propagation of electrical impulses to signal coordinated contraction of the heart.

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

Direct reprogramming of cardiomyocytes into cardiac Purkinje-like cells
Summary: Currently, there are no treatments that ameliorate cardiac cell death, the underlying basis of cardiovascular disease. An unexplored cell type in cardiac regeneration is cardiac Purkinje cells; specialized cells from the cardiac conduction ...
