Advances in Epicardial Access for Ventricular Tachycardia Ablation: From Historical Techniques to Carbon Dioxide Insufflation

Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine
Epicardial access is often required for effective catheter ablation of ventricular tachycardia (VT) originating from the epicardium, especially in patients with non-ischemic cardiomyopathy, arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC), and ...

Continuum Robots in Surgery: From Engineering Design to Clinical Practice

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
The hyper‐redundant nature of continuum robot structures enables near‐infinite degrees of freedom leading to immense potential for medical applications. This review provides a historical background of continuum robots and novel ideas shaping their progress to current structural design, sensing technology, modeling techniques, and control methods.

The Mind From Within: Visceral Roots of Human Cognition

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The physiological activity of visceral organs, such as the heart, the lungs, and the gut, is surprisingly linked to many sophisticated mental operations, such as remembering the past, being aware of ourselves, making choices, and forging social bonds.

Pacing-induced electrophysiological remodeling in hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy--observations on cardiac memory

, 2005
BACKGROUND: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy carries an increased risk for sudden cardiac death. While pacing therapy reduces the left ventricular outflow tract gradient and improves symptoms in a subgroup of hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM ...

DNA methylation-based telomere length is more strongly associated with cardiovascular disease and long-term mortality than quantitative polymerase chain reaction-based telomere length: evidence from the NHANES 1999–2002

Clinical Epigenetics
Background Telomere length (TL) serves as a pivotal gauge of cellular aging, with shorter TL linked to various age-related ailments. Recently, a DNA methylation-based TL estimator, known as DNAmTL, has emerged as a novel TL measurement tool.

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.
