Independent derivations of the axis of arrhythmia for predicting drug‐induced torsades de pointes
Abstract Background and Purpose: Torsades de pointes is a potentially lethal ventricular arrhythmia that can be induced by many classes of drugs. The risk for a given drug depends upon the combination of cardiac ion channels that it targets. The axis of arrhythmia quantifies that risk. It is a conceptual line in the electrophysiology that describes the

Brugada-type Electrocardiographic Pattern Induced by Fever [PDF]
ST-segment elevation in Brugada syndrome is caused by a shift in the ionic current balance and the creation of a voltage gradient between the epicardium and the endocardium. This ionic mechanism have been shown to be temperature dependent. We describe a

Flecainide exerts paradoxical effects on sodium currents and atrial arrhythmia in murine RyR2-P2328S hearts. [PDF]
AIMS: Cardiac ryanodine receptor mutations are associated with catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT), and some, including RyR2-P2328S, also predispose to atrial fibrillation.

ABSTRACT Background Bundle branch reentrant ventricular tachycardia (BBR‐VT) is a rare form of VT occurring in patients with structural heart disease (SHD). Rarely, it can also occur in the absence of SHD. Understanding its clinical and electrophysiologic (EP) properties and outcomes post‐catheter ablation (CA) is crucial. Objective We present a series

To Pace Or Not To Pace! – Prevention Of Atrial Fibrillation After Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery [PDF]
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a very undesirable, but unfortunately a common arrhythmia following coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery, occurring in up to 40% of patients.

Propafenone efficacy in paroxysmal atrial fibrillation
Efficacy and safety of class IС antiarrhythmic agent, propafenone, was investigated in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF), after single-dose load and during long-term preventive treatment.

A case of lethal suicidal intoxication with propafenone and diazepam
Diazepam poisoning is a common emergency situation, but propafenone poisoning is relatively rare. We reported a case of propafenone poisoning combined with diazepam.

Short QT syndrome variant 1 (SQT1) arises due to gain-of-function mutations to the human Ether-à-go-go-Related Gene (hERG), which encodes the α subunit of channels carrying rapid delayed rectifier potassium current, IKr.
