Electrolyte Content of Rat Heart Atria and Ventricles [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation Research, 1960
Extracellular tissue spaces are compared using inulin, sucrose, chloride and sodium in hearts perfused with Ringer-Locke solution by Langendorff's method. Also chloride and sodium spaces are given for unperfused, fresh hearts. From the inulin spaces the intracellular chloride, sodium, potassium and water concentrations in both perfused and unperfused ...

Heart atria granularity effects of changes in water-electrolyte balance.

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 1979
SummaryAtrial granularity was measured using a new morphometric method in rats subjected to procedures known to alter water-electrolyte balance. It was found that water deprivation and sodium deficiency lead to atrial hypergranulation, whereas, the combined administration of desoxycorticosterone (2.5 mg/100 g body wt/day) and 2% NaCl in the drinking ...

Trandolapril Attenuates Pro-Arrhythmic Downregulation of Cx43 and Cx40 in Atria of Volume Overloaded Hypertensive and Normotensive Rats. [PDF]

open access: yesBiomolecules
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 ...

Electrical Remodeling of the Atria in Congestive Heart Failure: Electrophysiological and Electroanatomic Mapping in Humans [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation, 2003
Background— Atrial fibrillation (AF) frequently complicates congestive heart failure (CHF). However, the electrophysiological substrate for AF in humans with CHF remains unknown. We evaluated the electrophysiological and electroanatomic characteristics of the atria in patients with CHF.

Observations on the Atria of the Human Heart by Direct and Semidirect Electrocardiography [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation, 1952
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.

The influence of epidural anesthesia on the electrical activity of heart atria. [PDF]

open access: yesKardiochir Torakochirurgia Pol, 2014
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 ...

Twin heart with a fused atria and separate ventricles in conjoined twins

open access: yesAnnals of Pediatric Cardiology, 2010
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.

Small Conductance Ca2 +-Activated K+ (SK) Channel mRNA Expression in Human Atrial and Ventricular Tissue: Comparison Between Donor, Atrial Fibrillation and Heart Failure Tissue

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
In search of more efficacious and safe pharmacological treatments for atrial fibrillation (AF), atria-selective antiarrhythmic agents have been promoted that target ion channels principally expressed in the atria.
