Rate-dependent effects of lidocaine on cardiac dynamics: Development and analysis of a low-dimensional drug-channel interaction model [PDF]
State-dependent Na+ channel blockers are often prescribed to treat cardiac arrhythmias, but many Na+ channel blockers are known to have pro-arrhythmic side effects. While the anti and proarrhythmic potential of a Na+ channel blocker is thought to depend on the characteristics of its rate-dependent block, the mechanisms linking these two attributes are ...

Distinct load dependence of relaxation rate and diastolic function in Oryctolagus cuniculus and Ratus norvegicus [PDF]
This study investigated potential differences on load dependence of relaxation rate and diastolic function between Oryctolagus cuniculus and Ratus norvegicus, which have constitutive differences in the mechanisms involved in myocardial inactivation. Load

Introduction: Left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction is common on preoperative screening among patients undergoing surgery. There is no simple screening test at present to suspect LV diastolic dysfunction. This study was aimed to test the hypothesis,

Treatment of atherosclerotic renovascular hypertension: review of observational studies and a meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials. [PDF]
open9Atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis can cause ischaemic nephropathy and arterial hypertension. We herein review the observational and randomized clinical trials (RCTs) comparing medical and endovascular treatment for control of hypertension and ...

Quantile regression for mixed models with an application to examine blood pressure trends in China [PDF]
Cardiometabolic diseases have substantially increased in China in the past 20 years and blood pressure is a primary modifiable risk factor. Using data from the China Health and Nutrition Survey, we examine blood pressure trends in China from 1991 to 2009, with a concentration on age cohorts and urbanicity.

Modern Multiple Imputation with Functional Data [PDF]
This work considers the problem of fitting functional models with sparsely and irregularly sampled functional data. It overcomes the limitations of the state-of-the-art methods, which face major challenges in the fitting of more complex non-linear models.

Hyperglycemia Has a Greater Impact on Left Ventricle Function in South Asians Than in Europeans [PDF]
OBJECTIVE Diabetes is associated with left ventricular (LV) diastolic and systolic dysfunction. South Asians may be at particular risk of developing LV dysfunction owing to a high prevalence of diabetes.

Introduction Impaired systolic cardiac function in patients with ischemic cardiac disease is well known. Diastolic cardiac dysfunction is also found in these patients, so we aimed to show whether percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) could improve ...
