The role of genetic testing in unexplained sudden death. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Most sudden deaths are because of a cardiac etiology and are termed sudden cardiac death (SCD). In younger individuals coronary artery disease is less prevalent and cardiac genetic disorders are more common.

Rapid severe hypertension and organ damage in two‐kidney two‐clip rats produced by different sizes of clips

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Blood pressure increases immediately when the 2K2C rats (made with 0.3, 0.25, and 0.2 mm U‐shaped clips) regain consciousness from anesthesia. 100% of the rats develop hypertension on the day of 2K2C surgery. Blood pressure continues to rise, resulting in severe hypertension and organ damage to the brain, heart, aorta, and kidneys at 1, 2, 4, and 6 ...

Sudden cardiac death: an update

open access: yesInternal medicine journal (Print), 2019
Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is a devastating and all too common result of both acquired and genetic heart diseases. The profound sadness endured by families is compounded by the risk many of these deaths confer upon surviving relatives.

Extreme sacrifice: sudden cardiac death in the US Fire Service [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Firefighting is a hazardous profession which has claimed on average the lives of 105 US firefighters per year for the past decade. The leading cause of line-of-duty mortality is sudden cardiac death, which accounts for approximately 45% of all ...

Establishment and evaluation of a novel rat model of the fourth ventricle hemorrhage

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
In this study, a novel rat model of fourth ventricle hemorrhage was established via autologous blood injection through the foramen of Magendie. Anesthetized rats were positioned in a stereotaxic apparatus with their heads tilted downward at an angle of approximately 20° relative to the vertical axis.

Incidence and Etiology of Sudden Cardiac Death: New Updates for Athletic Departments

open access: yesSports health, 2017
Context: Sudden cardiac death (SCD) in a young athlete is a tragic event and is the leading medical cause of death in this population. The precise incidence of SCD in young athletes has been subject of debate, with studies reporting drastically different

Sudden Cardiac Death and Turbulence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Data acquired from the electrical activity of human hearts during episodes of atrial fibrillation, a disordered arrhythmia that is a major cause of stroke, reveals intriguing features for an excitable media: highly skew symmetric probability dis- tributions with heavy tails, long range correlations, and broad singularity spectra.

Cardiac Innervation and Sudden Cardiac Death [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation Research, 2015
Afferent and efferent cardiac neurotransmission via the cardiac nerves intricately modulates nearly all physiological functions of the heart (chronotropy, dromotropy, lusitropy, and inotropy). Afferent information from the heart is transmitted to higher levels of the nervous system for processing (intrinsic cardiac nervous system, extracardiac ...
