The influence of epidural anesthesia on the electrical activity of heart atria. [PDF]
High thoracic epidural anesthesia (TEA) causes blockade of sympathetic fibers involved in innervation of the heart (segments T1-T4), which results in changes of cardiac electrophysiology. The anti-arrhythmic effects of TEA on supraventricular arrhythmias, mainly atrial fibrillation, are controversial.The aim of the study was to assess the influence of ...

Trandolapril Attenuates Pro-Arrhythmic Downregulation of Cx43 and Cx40 in Atria of Volume Overloaded Hypertensive and Normotensive Rats [PDF]
Pressure overload in non-treated or resistant hypertension (HTN) increases the risk of heart failure (HF) as well as the occurrence of fatal ventricular arrhythmias and stroke-provoking atrial fibrillation (AF), while perturbed connexin-43 (Cx43) and ...

Observations on the Atria of the Human Heart by Direct and Semidirect Electrocardiography [PDF]
By evaluation of direct electrocardiographic leads from the right atrium and semidirect esophageal leads from the left atrium, "atriodiagrams" have been constructed for both atria. The spread of activation in the atria has been studied under normal conditions as well as in cases of mitral heart disease, cor pulmonale, etc.

Twin heart with a fused atria and separate ventricles in conjoined twins
One of the most interesting congenital malformations is that of conjoined twins. We report echocardiographic features of twin heart in dicephalus, tribrachius, dispinous, thoracoomphalopagus twin. It showed two hearts fused at atrial level.

Diabetes Alters the Expression and Translocation of the Insulin-Sensitive Glucose Transporters 4 and 8 in the Atria. [PDF]
Although diabetes has been identified as a major risk factor for atrial fibrillation, little is known about glucose metabolism in the healthy and diabetic atria. Glucose transport into the cell, the rate-limiting step of glucose utilization, is regulated

A Primary Neuroendocrine Tumor Mimicking a Thrombus in the Left Atrial Appendage
Most cardiac tumors are metastases, and primary cardiac tumors are rare; even among primary cardiac tumors, primary cardiac neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are extremely rare.
