Cardiac myosin binding protein C, adrenergic stimulation and cardiac contractility [PDF]

open access: yesSA Heart Journal, 2017
Myosin binding protein C remained a perplexing although integral component of the sarcomeric thick filament until the discovery that genetic defects in its corresponding gene is a frequent cause of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Basic science investigation

Transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation: retrospective assessment of cardiac safety in a pilot study. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background: Vagus nerve stimulation has been successfully used as a treatment strategy for epilepsy and affective disorders for years. Transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation (tVNS) is a new non-invasive method to stimulate the vagus nerve, which has been

The impact of cardiac feedback on human cognition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Afferent feedback from arterial baroreceptors modulates sensorimotor responses, but it is unknown whether it can also interfere with high-order cognition.

Cardiac adrenergic control and atrial fibrillation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia, and it causes substantial mortality. The autonomic nervous system, and particularly the adrenergic/cholinergic balance, has a profound influence on the occurrence of AF ...

Baroreceptor stimulation: Pain perception and sensory thresholds [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Baroreceptor activity has been implicated in the modulation of pain. Sensory detection thresholds and pain ratings were measured in a group of 28 men during carotid baroreceptor manipulation with the PRES (phase-related external suction) neck suction ...

Cardiac troponins in intensive care [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The cardiac troponins are integral components of the myofibrillary apparatus and they regulate muscle contraction. The measurement of cardiac troponins has replaced other biomarkers for the specific detection of myocardial necrosis and for the diagnosis ...

Cardiac Responses to Sympathetic Stimulation [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation Research, 1956
The cardiac responses to stimulation of sympathetic nerves to the heart were studied both in thoracotomized and in intact unanesthetized dogs. The changes in heart rate, left ventricular pressure, right and left ventricular dimensions and systemic arterial pressures were recorded.
