Regenerating Hearts by Arresting Development With Hypothyroidism [PDF]
A recent report by Hirose et al highlights the divergence in cardiac regenerative potential across phylogeny and mouse ontogeny. They provide a correlation between metabolic rate and cardiomyocyte ploidy across species, linking whole-body metabolic control to endothermics and to thyroid function.

Impact of Donor Cardiac Arrest on Heart Transplantation [PDF]
Cardiac transplantation is an effective therapy for patients with end-stage heart failure, but it is still hindered by the lack of donor organs. A history of donor cardiac arrest raises trepidation regarding the possibility of poor post-transplant outcomes.

Identification of the growth arrest and DNA damage protein GADD34 in the normal human heart and demonstration of alterations in expression following myocardial ischaemia [PDF]
Growth arrest and DNA damage protein 34 (GADD34) is a multifunctional protein upregulated in response to cellular stress and is believed to mediate DNA repair and restore protein synthesis. In the present study we have examined GADD34 immunoreactivity in

The effects of cardioplegic arrest and reperfusion on the microvasculature of the heart [PDF]
Despite laboratory evidence of leucocyte involvement in reperfusion injury, cardiac surgical clinical trials do not support the therapeutic effectiveness of leucocyte filtration. Furthermore, the direct effects of crystalloid cardioplegia and reperfusion on the capillaries of the heart have yet to be elucidated.

Use of rapid-deployment extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for the resuscitation of pediatric patients with heart disease after cardiac arrest [PDF]
Introduction: We have recently used extracorporeal membrane oxygenation as a means of rapidly resuscitating pediatric patients with heart disease after cardiopulmonary arrest, in whom conventional resuscitation measures have failed. Methods: We developed

VASOSPASTIC ARREST: A HEART-STOPPING CASE OF PRINZMETAL ANGINA
Vasospastic angina is an uncommon cause of cardiac arrest. We describe a patient who presented with sudden cardiac arrest due to severe coronary vasospasm. Telemetry during the event revealed ventricular arrhythmias and asystole followed by spontaneous self-conversion back to normal sinus rhythm.

The effects of repetitive electric cardiac stimulation in dogs with normal hearts, complete heart block and experimental cardiac arrest [PDF]
Direct cardiac stimulation was conducted in the open chest. In normal animals, auricular stimulation at frequencies faster than the spontaneous rate caused little change in vascular pressures or cardiac output.

Dynamics of Pulsed Flow in an Elastic Tube [PDF]
Internal haemorrhage, often leading to cardio-vascular arrest happens to be one of the prime sources of high fatality rates in mammals. We propose a simplistic model of fluid flow to specify the location of the haemorrhagic spots, which, if located ...
