Cardioversion of atrial fibrillation does not affect obstructive sleep apnea

Upsala Journal of Medical Sciences, 2017
Background: Sleep apnea is common in patients with atrial fibrillation, but the effect of the cardioversion of atrial fibrillation to sinus rhythm on central and obstructive apneas is mainly unknown.

Clinical Relevance of Sinus Rhythm Mapping to Quantify Electropathology Related to Atrial Fibrillation [PDF]

, 2022
Progression of AF is accompanied by structural and electrical remodelling, resulting in complex electrical conduction disorders. This is defined as electropathology and it increases with the progression of AF.

Characteristics of the heart rhythm in children with gastroesophageal reflux disease

Zdorovʹe Rebenka, 2019
Background. Incidence of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) increases in patients from different age groups throughout the world. Studying the extraesophageal manifestations, including cardiologic symptoms of GERD, in children is relevant.

Contribution of the respiratory rhythm to sinus arrhythmia in normal unanesthetized subjects during positive-pres sure mechanical hyperventilation

, 2004
The precise contribution of the CO2-dependent respiratory rhythm to sinus arrhythmia in eupnea is unclear. The respiratory rhythm and sinus arrhythmia were measured in 12 normal, unanesthetized subjects in normocapnia and hypocapnia during mechanical ...

Synchronization‐Dissipation in the Cardiorespiratory System

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
By modeling central nervous coupling and viscoelastic interactions in the cardiorespiratory system we show that synchronization produces a 10% gain in cardiac efficiency in humans. It is surmised that respiratory sinus arrhythmia improves cardiac pumping efficiency by reducing dynamic stress and power dissipation in the pulmonary vasculature.

Atrial Imaging and Cardiac Rhythm in Cryptogenic Embolic Stroke: The ARIES Study

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background Unknown cardioembolic sources are frequent causes of cryptogenic stroke. We analyzed the risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) or high burden of ectopic atrial activity (HBEA) in patients with cryptogenic stroke, assessing atrial function and 1 ...

Paternal Caffeine Exposure Programs Offspring Stress Vulnerability via Sperm Dlk1‐Dio3 Imprinting‐Directed Remodeling of a Novel Neural Circuit

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The study elucidates that paternal preconception stress can drive offspring hyperresponsivity of the stress system via hypomethylation of a specific DNA region in sperm. This key link is confirmed in a cohort of prospective fathers: the epigenetic alteration is associated with elevated stress hormone levels.

Assessing Cardiac Sympatho-Vagal Balance Through Wavelet Transform Analysis of Heart Rate Variability

Applied Sciences
Heart rate variability (HRV), which is the variation between consecutive heartbeats, reflects the electrical activity of the heart and provides insight into the autonomic nervous system (ANS) function.
