Left Bundle Branch Area Pacing Reverts Electromechanical Window Negativity to a Similar Extent as Biventricular Pacing

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
BiVP = biventricular pacing; CRT = cardiac resynchronization therapy; EMW = electromechanical window; LBBAP = left bundle branch area pacing; QAoC = Time interval from the onset of the QRS complex to the center of the aortic valve closure artifact; QT = QT interval measured by tangent method.

Long QT syndrome: A therapeutic challenge

Annals of Pediatric Cardiology, 2008
Congenital long QT syndrome (LQTS) is one of the most common cardiac channelopathies and is characterized by prolonged ventricular repolarization and life-threatening arrhythmias. The mortality is high among untreated patients.

Outcomes of a Routine Screening Protocol to Prevent Metamycoplasma and Ureaplasma Infection in Lung Transplant Recipients

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
This study analyzed outcomes of an early Mollicute (Mycoplasma hominis and Ureaplasma spp.) screening protocol using BAL PCR with preemptive treatment and ammonia monitoring in lung transplant recipients. This appears to be a practical and reasonably effective approach for preventing early Mollicute infection and hyperammonemia syndrome.

Cardiac remodelling in type 2 diabetes: Pathophysiological mechanisms and opportunities for multiscale computational modelling and simulation

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Overview of multiscale cardiac remodelling in type 2 diabetes and how to model and simulate these changes using a human‐based, multiscale computational framework. Cardiac remodelling in type 2 diabetes occurs at ionic channel, protein, cellular, tissue and whole‐organ level, affecting the electrophysiological function, mechanical

Genotype-Phenotype Relationships in Long QT Syndrome : Role of Mental Stress, Adrenergic Activity and a Common KCNH2 Polymorphism [PDF]

, 2006
Long QT syndrome is a congenital or acquired arrhythmic disorder which manifests as a prolonged QT-interval on the electrocardiogram and as a tendency to develop ventricular arrhythmias which can lead to sudden death.

In silico modelling of multi‐electrode arrays for enhancing cardiac drug testing on hiPSC‐CM heterogeneous tissues

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic overview of the experimental and computational framework for investigating hiPSC‐CM electrophysiology with MEA systems. The MEA‐based model integrates experimental data with phenotype‐specific ionic models and tissue‐level heterogeneity.

The apicobasal dispersion of ventricular repolarization in humans is associated with age and affects arrhythmia vulnerability

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend We investigated the age‐ and sex‐related differences in the apicobasal repolarization gradient (ABRG) and evaluated their possible role inventricular arrhythmia vulnerability. Electrocardiographic imaging (ECGI) was performed in healthy subjects during sinus rhythm, and the average recovery time (RT) and activation–recovery ...

14‐3‐3 proteins: Regulators of cardiac excitation–contraction coupling and stress responses

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend 14‐3‐3 protein interactions in cardiac regulation. Schematic representation of 14‐3‐3 binding partners in excitation–contraction coupling, transcriptional regulation/development and stress response pathways. Asterisks indicate targets where the exact 14‐3‐3 binding site is unknown.

Facilitation of I Kr current by some hERG channel blockers suppresses early afterdepolarizations. [PDF]

, 2019
Drug-induced block of the cardiac rapid delayed rectifying potassium current (I Kr), carried by the human ether-a-go-go-related gene (hERG) channel, is the most common cause of acquired long QT syndrome.

Repolarization adaptation to rapid change in heart rate in human models – a review

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend This review focuses on non‐invasive assessment of repolarization duration and dispersion (heterogeneity) adaptation to change in heart rate (HR). HR was increased incrementally by left atrial pacing during an electrophysiology (EP) study and by a bolus injection of atropine and in a step up/down fashion by repeated right atrial ...
