Do the predictors of right ventricular pacing-induced cardiomyopathy add up?

Indian Heart Journal, 2021
Objective: Knowledge of factors causing pacing-induced cardiomyopathy (PICM) is incomplete. We sought to estimate the incidence and predisposing factors for PICM and evaluate if the risk they portend adds up.

Post-TAVR patients with atrial fibrillation: are NOACs better than VKAs?—A meta-analysis

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
ObjectiveThis study aimed to compare the efficacy of novel oral anticoagulants (NOACs) with traditional anticoagulants vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) post transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR ...

Bipolar Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation for Ventricular Arrhythmias

Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
A minority of premature ventricular contractions (PVC) and ventricular tachycardias (VT) have an intramural origin, which represents a challenge for conventional radiofrequency ablation.

The role of inhibitory G proteins and regulators of G protein signaling in the in vivo control of heart rate and predisposition to cardiac arrhythmias [PDF]

, 2012
Inhibitory heterotrimeric G proteins and the control of heart rate. The activation of cell signaling pathways involving inhibitory heterotrimeric G proteins acts to slow the heart rate via modulation of ion channels.

Adenosine-guided radiofrequency catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation: A meta-analysis of randomized control trials

Journal of Arrhythmia, 2017
Background: The prognostic significance of adenosine-mediated dormant pulmonary vein conduction, and whether such dormant conduction should be eliminated, remains controversial.

Post–Myocardial Infarction Scar With Fat Deposition Shows Specific Electrophysiological Properties and Worse Outcome After Ventricular Tachycardia Ablation

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019
Background Fat deposition (FD) is part of the healing process after myocardial infarction. The characteristics of FD and its impact on the outcome in patients undergoing ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation have not been thoroughly studied.

Methods of Assessment and Clinical Relevance of QT Dynamics [PDF]

, 2005
The dependence on heart rate of the QT interval has been investigated for many years and several mathematical formulae have been proposed to describe the QT interval/heart rate (or QT interval/RR interval) relationship. While the most popular is Bazett’s
