Resilience to Cardiac Aging in Greenland Shark Somniosus microcephalus
Aging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 5, May 2026.Greenland shark Somniosus microcephalus shows severe cardiac aging such as fibrosis, lipofuscin buildup, mitochondrial damage, and oxidative stress, unseen in comparison species Etmopterus spinax and Nothobranchius furzeri, yet remain healthy. S. microcephalus resilience suggests unique mechanisms that preserve heart function for centuries, offering ...

Possible Deslanoside‐Induced Left Posterior Fascicular Ventricular Tachycardia: A Case Report
Annals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology, Volume 31, Issue 3, May 2026.A 73‐year‐old man with paroxysmal AF and no structural heart disease who developed left posterior fascicular ventricular tachycardia (LPFVT) shortly after intravenous Deslanoside administration for rate control. Highlights: cardiac glycosides, though effective for rate control, may occasionally precipitate Purkinje‐related ventricular tachycardia ...

Alternative Lead ECG Placements
Annals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology, Volume 31, Issue 3, May 2026.Alternative ECG lead placements can improve diagnostic yield when the standard 12‐lead ECG is suboptimal or infeasible. This review summarizes practical, scenario‐driven modifications (right‐sided, posterior, seated/prone, Lewis, Fontaine, torso‐based, and monitoring configurations) to better detect ischemia, right ventricular disease/ARVD, and ...
