Association between C-reactive protein, corrected QT interval and presence of QT prolongation in hypertensive patients

Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, 2014
C-reactive protein (CRP) and corrected QT (QTc) interval are predictors of cardiovascular disease. Whether CRP is associated with QTc interval and QT prolongation is unknown in hypertensive patients.

Models for QT prolongation [PDF]

Science-Business eXchange, 2011
Technion and Stanford researchers have independently developed human stem cell–based models of long QT syndrome, a cardiac disorder that can be triggered by drugs and has derailed many drug development programs. The models could help identify therapies for long QT syndrome and potential drug cardiac side effects early on.

Artificial intelligence in preclinical epilepsy research: Current state, potential, and challenges

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Preclinical translational epilepsy research uses animal models to better understand the mechanisms underlying epilepsy and its comorbidities, as well as to analyze and develop potential treatments that may mitigate this neurological disorder and its associated conditions. Artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a transformative tool across

Incidence of QT interval prolongation during arsenic trioxide-based therapy in a sample of Iraqi adult patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia (a single-center experience)

Iraqi Journal of Hematology
BACKGROUND: Arsenic trioxide (ATO) regimen is now the standard of care for acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL). The complete remission and possible cure are reported to be 50%–80% of APL patients.

Prevalence of the QT interval prolongation and its risk factors in hospitalized geriatric patients: findings of a single center cross-sectional study in Pakistan

BMC Geriatrics
Background and objectives Geriatric inpatients are particularly susceptible to Torsades de Pointes (TdP) because they are usually polymorbid and often take QT-prolonging drugs.

Antipsychotic, Medilations QT Interval and Torsades de Pointes [PDF]

Düşünen Adam Psikiyatri ve Nörolojik Bilimler Dergisi, 2007
QT interval dispersion is the distance between maximum QT and minimum QT intervals on surface 12 lead ECG. Inreased QT dispersion is associated with serious cardiac rhythm disturbances and sudden cardiac death.

Genetic Biomarkers in the Risk Assessment of Sudden Cardiac Events: A Personalized Approach

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
Genetic insights into the risk assessment of sudden cardiac events. ABSTRACT Sudden cardiac events are the leading cause of death worldwide. Conventional risk stratification methods, which largely depend on clinical history, imaging, and electrocardiography, are usually inadequate for identifying high‐risk individuals, especially those without visible ...

A prospective study on change of QTc interval with antipsychotic medications in patients of schizophrenia and related psychotic disorder

Asian Journal of Medical Sciences
Background: Sudden unexplained death in individuals with mental health problems was described in 1960 and a link with antipsychotic drugs was postulated over 40 years ago.

Similar dynamic tibiofemoral movements during jump‐landing and walking but distinct hamstrings strength across ACL reconstruction autograft types at mid‐term follow‐up

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Dynamic tibiofemoral movements following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) with quadriceps tendon (QT) autografts have not yet been compared to other autografts. We aimed to compare dynamic anterior tibial translation (ATTd) and internal tibial rotation (ITRd) during jump‐landing and walking among patients with QT, bone ...

Impact of hamstring versus quadriceps tendon graft on thigh muscle strength and surface electromyography activity after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To compare quadriceps tendon (QT) and hamstring tendon (HT) autografts regarding isometric thigh muscle strength, surface electromyography (sEMG) activity and clinical outcomes following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR).
