Atrial Fibroblasts‐Derived Extracellular Vesicles Exacerbate Atrial Arrhythmogenesis
Exosome miR‐224‐5p derived from angiotensin II‐treated atrial fibroblasts creates a substrate for AF by promoting atrial electrical remodeling. Increased exosome miR‐224‐5p enhances AF susceptibility by inhibiting CACNA1c expression and decreasing ICa current of atrial cardiomyocytes.

Modelling Effect of Heart Failure on the Electrical Activity of Sheep Atria
Heart failure (HF) is associated with cardiac arrhythmias, which impairs cardiac electromechanics that causes dysfunction of cardiac muscle contraction leading to increased risks of morbidity and mortality. Previous studies have revealed that HF causes alteration to the electrophysiological and structural properties of the atria.

Higher frequencies of BCRP+ cardiac resident cells in ischaemic human myocardium [PDF]
Aims Several cardiac resident progenitor cell types have been reported for the adult mammalian heart. Here we characterize their frequencies and distribution pattern in non-ischaemic human myocardial tissue and after ischaemic events. Methods and results

FOXM1 maintains mitochondrial bioenergetic function by inhibiting MKRN1‐mediated ubiquitination of LKB1 in cardiomyocytes. Loss of FOXM1 in cardiomyocytes results in upregulation of MKRN1, which enhances LKB1 ubiquitination and disrupts AMPK signaling and energy metabolism pathways. Conversely, FOXM1 overexpression preserves mitochondrial bioenergetics

Distribution of KAP scores for participants ≤ 65 versus > 65 years. ABSTRACT Objectives Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common clinical arrhythmia. Failure to identify AF leaves patients at a considerably higher risk of disability and death, making its early screening and prevention extremely important. This study aimed to investigate knowledge, attitude,

Parametric Design of Continuum Robots Using Interlocking Ball Joints
Herein, a parametric design methodology is introduced for producing a wide variety of modular ball joint‐based continuum robots. It is demonstrate by designing a magnetically actuated continuum robot for cardiac ablations. The methodology is released as an open‐source computer‐assisted design extension that automatically designs continuum robots based ...

Role of Fiber Orientation in Atrial Arrythmogenesis [PDF]
Electrical wave-front propagation in the atria is determined largely by local fiber orientation. Recent study suggests that atrial fibrillation (AF) progresses with enhanced anisotropy.

Characterizing the Healthcare Utilization and Costs of Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia
ABSTRACT Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) is the second‐most common inherited bleeding disorder worldwide, afflicting one in 4000–5000 people, and is the most morbid inherited bleeding disorder of women. HHT causes recurrent severe epistaxis, chronic gastrointestinal bleeding, heavy menstrual bleeding, and arteriovenous malformations in the ...
