Cardiac Arrhythmias In Congenital Heart Diseases

Indian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2009
Arrhythmias figure prominently among the complications encountered in the varied and diverse population of patients with congenital heart disease, and are the leading cause of morbidity and mortality. The incidence generally increases as the patient ages,

Predictive factors of atrioventricular conduction disorders [PDF]

Romanian Medical Journal
Atrioventricular conduction disorders represent an alteration in the normal function of the heart’s electrical conduction system, a system that connects the atria and ventricles through the atrio-ventricular node and the His-Purkinje system. Consequently,

The Role of Chemotherapy in Pediatric Myoepithelial Carcinoma: A Systematic Review of the Literature

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Myoepithelial carcinoma (MEC) in pediatric patients is a rare and aggressive malignancy characterized by heterogeneous morphology and variable molecular features. The optimal role of chemotherapy remains unclear. We conducted a systematic review according to PRISMA 2020 guidelines to evaluate chemotherapy in pediatric and young‐adult patients ...

Development of the Cardiac Conduction System and the Possible Relation to Predilection Sites of Arrhythmogenesis

The Scientific World Journal, 2008
The cardiac conduction system (CCS) encompasses a complex system responsible for the coordinated contraction of the heart. In the developing heart, as well as in the adult heart, tissues of the (putative) CCS are characterized by different properties ...

Effectiveness of Resistance Intradialytic Exercise Compared to Aerobic Intradialytic Exercise for Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis commonly experience reduced physical function, fatigue, poor sleep quality, and impaired health‐related quality of life. Intradialytic exercise has been proposed as a non‐pharmacological strategy to improve these outcomes.

Establishing an Apheresis Medicine Program in a Resource‐Constrained Setting: A 5‐Year Experience From Lagos, Nigeria

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Establishing a comprehensive apheresis medicine program in a resource‐constrained setting presents significant structural, financial, and logistical challenges. Despite the growing clinical importance of apheresis services globally, published experience from sub‐Saharan Africa remains sparse.

Induction and patterning of the cardiac conduction system [PDF]

, 2002
The cardiac conduction system (CCS) is the component of the heart that initiates and maintains a rhythmic heartbeat. As the embryonic heart forms, the CCS must continue to develop and mature in a coordinated manner to ensure that proper pace making ...

Leukocyte telomere length and conduction system ageing [PDF]

Objective: Deterioration of the cardiac conduction system is an important manifestation of cardiac ageing. Cellular ageing is accompanied by telomere shortening and telomere length is often regarded as a marker of biological ageing, potentially adding ...
