Cardioprotective effects of dantrolene in doxorubicin-induced cardiomyopathy in mice

Heart Rhythm O2, 2021
Background: Doxorubicin (Dox) is a potent chemotherapeutic agent, but its usage is limited by dose-dependent cardiotoxicity. Intracellular calcium dysregulation has been reported to be involved in doxorubicin-induced cardiomyopathy (DICM).

Atrial fibrillation

Australian Journal of General Practice, 2019
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is increasingly common among Australia's ageing population and carries significant morbidity and mortality. Its detection through screening, cardiac device interrogation and/or symptoms of AF brings with it a number of significant clinical issues.The aim of this article is to outline a systematic approach to the management of ...

YKL-40 is highly expressed in the epicardial adipose tissue of patients with atrial fibrillation and associated with atrial fibrosis

Journal of Translational Medicine, 2018
Background YKL-40 (CHI3L1) is a novel biomarker for inflammation, tissue remodeling, and fibrosis, as well as cardiovascular diseases. We investigated the association between YKL-40 expression in epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) and atrial fibrosis in ...

Incidence and Predictors of Complications During Cryoballoon Pulmonary Vein Isolation for Atrial Fibrillation

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2016
BackgroundCryoballoon pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) has emerged as an alternative to radiofrequency PVI for atrial fibrillation (AF). Data are lacking to define the rates and predictors of complications, particularly phrenic nerve injury (PNI).

Focal impulse and rotor modulation of atrial rotors during atrial fibrillation leads to organization of left atrial activation as reflected by waveform morphology recurrence quantification analysis and organizational index

Journal of Arrhythmia, 2020
Background Focal impulse and rotor modulation (FIRM) can cause slowing, organization, and occasionally termination of atrial fibrillation (AF), although results have been mixed.

The effects of 4,6-Dichloro-2-Sodiooxy-1,3,5-Triazine on the Fibrillation Propensity of Lyocell Fibers

Journal of Natural Fibers, 2023
Dichlorotriazine reactive crosslinker has been used to reduce the fibrillation of Lyocell. The fibrillation propensity and mechanism of 4, 6-dichloro-2-sodium dioxy-1, 3, 5-triazine treatment on Lyocell fibers were studied, and the mechanical properties ...
