Prevalence of cardiac fibrosis and infiltrative cardiomyopathy in patients with advanced conduction system disease

Journal of Arrhythmia
Abstract Background Conduction system disease may represent an early manifestation of underlying structural heart disease, including infiltrative disorders. Timely diagnosis of underlying cardiomyopathy has significant implications for clinical management, guiding both disease‐modifying medical

Is there an association between Fahr's disease and cardiac conduction system disease?: A case report.

Journal of research in medical sciences : the official journal of Isfahan University of Medical Sciences, 2012
Fahr's disease is a rare neurodegenerative disorder of unknown cause characterized by idiopathic basal ganglia calcification that is associated with neuropsychiatric and cognitive impairment. No case of Fahr's disease with associated cardiac conduction disease has been described in the literature to date.

Genetic and physiologic dissection of the vertebrate cardiac conduction system. [PDF]

PLoS Biology, 2008
Vertebrate hearts depend on highly specialized cardiomyocytes that form the cardiac conduction system (CCS) to coordinate chamber contraction and drive blood efficiently and unidirectionally throughout the organism.

Incidence of carditis and predictors of pacemaker implantation in patients hospitalized with Lyme disease.

PLoS ONE, 2021
BackgroundLyme carditis, defined as direct infection of cardiac tissue by Borrelia bacteria, affects up to 10% of patients with Lyme disease. The most frequently reported clinical manifestation of Lyme carditis is cardiac conduction system disease.

Regulation of Cardiac Conduction and Arrhythmias by Ankyrin/Spectrin-Based Macromolecular Complexes

Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2021
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.

Advances in Physiological Cardiac Stimulation

Journal of Cardiac Arrhythmias, 2021
Advances in cardiac stimulation demonstrate that bradyarrhythmia treatments go beyond heart rate control. The concern with the ventricular stimulation site and, consequently, with the maintenance of intraventricular synchrony has become routine in most ...

Inherited progressive cardiac conduction disorders. [PDF]

, 2015
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Progressive cardiac conduction disorder (PCCD) is an inherited cardiac disease that may present as a primary electrical disease or be associated with structural heart disease. In this brief review, we present recent clinical, genetic,

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

JACC: Case Reports, 2020
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

Anisotropic Cardiac Conduction [PDF]

, 2020
Anisotropy is the property of directional dependence. In cardiac tissue, conduction velocity is anisotropic and its orientation is determined by myocyte direction.
