Sinoatrial node dysfunction induces cardiac arrhythmias in diabetic mice. [PDF]
The aim of this study was to probe cardiac complications, including heart-rate control, in a mouse model of type-2 diabetes. Heart-rate development in diabetic patients is not straight forward: In general, patients with diabetes have faster heart rates compared to non-diabetic individuals, yet diabetic patients are frequently found among patients ...

Cycle length restitution in sinoatrial node cells: a theory for understanding spontaneous action potential dynamics. [PDF]
Normal heart rhythm (sinus rhythm) is governed by the sinoatrial node, a specialized and highly heterogeneous collection of spontaneously active myocytes in the right atrium.

Are physiological oscillations physiological?
Abstract figure legend Mechanisms and functions of physiological oscillations. Abstract Despite widespread and striking examples of physiological oscillations, their functional role is often unclear. Even glycolysis, the paradigm example of oscillatory biochemistry, has seen questions about its oscillatory function.

Pathophysiology of Cav1.3 L-type calcium channels in the heart
Ca2+ plays a crucial role in excitation-contraction coupling in cardiac myocytes. Dysfunctional Ca2+ regulation alters the force of contraction and causes cardiac arrhythmias. Ca2+ entry into cardiomyocytes is mediated mainly through L-type Ca2+ channels,

Temporal Characteristics and Management of Prolonged Sinus Pause Following Atrial Fibrillation Termination After Catheter Ablation-A Preliminary Study. [PDF]
Twelve of the 1330 patients who underwent AF catheter ablation showed PSP ≥ 3 s after AF termination post ablation. The temporal characteristics of PSP were described. Nine of the 12 patients had no need for permanent pacing. We concluded that a ‘watch‐and‐wait’ strategy could be adopted in these patients.

Aging and Sinoatrial Node Dysfunction [PDF]
In the century since the discovery by Keith and Flack of the sinoatrial node in the mole heart, a detailed mosaic of its cellular, anatomic, and electrophysiological properties has emerged. The human sinus node has been found to be anatomically constant and well localized, occupying an approximately 10-mm subepicardial region on the sulcus terminalis ...

Tachycardia-bradycardia syndrome: Electrophysiological mechanisms and future therapeutic approaches (Review) [PDF]
Sick sinus syndrome (SSS) encompasses a group of disorders whereby the heart is unable to perform its pacemaker function, due to genetic and acquired causes.

RyR2(R4496C) Expression Induces Sinoatrial Node Dysfunction [PDF]
Catecholaminergic Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia (CPVT) is an arrhythmogenic disease characterized by stress-triggered syncope and sudden death. While ventricular tachycardia appears only during stress conditions, CPVT patients manifest basal sino-atrial node (SAN) dysfunction, but the underlying mechanism remains unknown.
