Variable electrophysiology before and after block of the two delayed rectifier potassium channels in groups of isolated rabbit ventricular cells

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Between‐cell differences in ventricular cardiomyocyte action potential duration (APD) and responses to ion channel block may contribute to pro‐arrhythmic dispersion of myocardial repolarisation. This study quantifies between‐cell physiological and pharmacological variability in the rabbit left ventricle (LV) and uses ...

Air embolism secondary to suspected lymphatic tissue disruption with severe exercise‐induced pulmonary haemorrhage

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Air embolism is rare in horses and typically associated with complications following intravenous catheterisation or other medical procedures. Exercise‐induced pulmonary haemorrhage (EIPH) is common in racehorses but not usually associated with air embolism. This report describes a case of air embolism in a 4‐year‐old Thoroughbred with EIPH. The

Impact of the Endocardium in a Parameter Optimization to Solve the Inverse Problem of Electrocardiography

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2019
Electrocardiographic imaging aims at reconstructing cardiac electrical events from electrical signals measured on the body surface. The most common approach relies on the inverse solution of the Laplace equation in the torso to reconstruct epicardial ...

Unravelling the Genetic Mechanisms of Litter Traits in a Maternal Line of Pigs

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Reproductive traits related to litter size are the main indicators of reproductive efficiency in pig production and are continuously evaluated for the selection of maternal lines. Several environmental and genetic factors are involved with the development of these traits.

Impact of Dental Status on Heart Transplantation Outcomes

open access: yesOral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Oral infections and poor dental health may contribute to systemic complications after heart transplantation, yet data on their impact is limited. In the absence of standardized dental guidelines for transplant candidates, this study evaluated preoperative dental status and its association with post‐transplant outcomes.

Epigenetics and Mechanobiology in Heart Development and Congenital Heart Disease

open access: yesDiseases, 2019
Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common birth defect worldwide and the number one killer of live-born infants in the United States. Heart development occurs early in embryogenesis and involves complex interactions between multiple cell ...

Single-cell analysis of cardiogenesis reveals basis for organ-level developmental defects. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Organogenesis involves integration of diverse cell types; dysregulation of cell-type-specific gene networks results in birth defects, which affect 5% of live births.

Feature Tracking Cardiac Magnetic Resonance via Deep Learning and Spline Optimization

open access: yes, 2017
Feature tracking Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (CMR) has recently emerged as an area of interest for quantification of regional cardiac function from balanced, steady state free precession (SSFP) cine sequences.

Modified Anatomical Ablation Strategy for Mitral Isthmus

open access: yesPacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Durable mitral isthmus (MI) block remains challenging in persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation. Ethanol infusion into the vein of Marshall (EI‐VOM) enhances efficacy, but the minimal endocardial ablation extent post‐EI‐VOM is undefined.

Role of pharmacotherapy in Brugada syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
In patients who undergo aborted sudden cardiac death or syncope of unknown origin (symptomatic Brugada syndrome), no one argues that the implantation of an ICD is the first-line therapy regardless of the findings of the EP study.
