Left Atrial Strain is More Sensitive and Specific Than Left Ventricular Strain in Differentiating Cardiac Amyloidosis From Pathological Left Ventricular Hypertrophy

open access: yes
Background Early diagnosis of cardiac amyloidosis (CA) is necessary to initiate specific treatment and improve outcomes. Conventional echocardiography is unable to reliably differentiate CA from other causes of increased left ventricular (LV) wall ...

Exercising electrocardiograms from Thoroughbred racehorses with exercise associated sudden death

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Exercise associated sudden death (EASD), defined as a fatal collapse in a closely monitored and previously presumed clinically healthy horse that occurs during exercise or within approximately 1 h after exercise, is disproportionately more common in equine than in human athletes.

Post-operative atrial fibrillation is influenced by beta-blocker therapy but not by pre-operative atrial cellular electrophysiology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We investigated whether post-cardiac surgery (CS) new-onset atrial fibrillation (AF) is predicted by pre-CS atrial cellular electrophysiology, and whether the antiarrhythmic effect of beta-blocker therapy may involve pre-CS pharmacological remodeling ...

Left Atrial Myxoma Mimicking Mitral Stenosis

open access: yes, 2012
Cardiac myxoma is a benign (non-malignant) neoplasm that represents the most common primary tumour of the heart. We present the case of a 36 year old woman with background hypertension who presented with features of left ventricular failure and seizures,

Validation of a smart textile electrocardiographic monitoring device in racehorses during high‐speed exercise

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Exercise‐associated cardiac arrhythmias may contribute to poor performance and sudden cardiac death in horses. Widespread monitoring is limited by device availability and suitability for field use. Objectives To (1) compare electrocardiographic (ECG) quality from a smart textile system (Myant Skiin Equine) with a reference device ...

Magneto‐responsive fibers and fabrics for soft systems

open access: yesFlexMat, EarlyView.
Abstract The combination of functional materials in fiber form has led to a surge in the integration of functional fibers and fabrics into soft systems that span sensing, communication, and actuation domains. A key subset is magnetic fibers and fabrics.

Left Atrial Spontaneous Echo Contrast in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy with Atrial Fibrillation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Transesophageal echocardiography was performed to assess the incidence of left atrial spontaneous echo contrast in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, who were divided into two groups according to the presence (group 1-A; 10 patients) or absence ...
