Neonatal Scn1b-null mice have sinoatrial node dysfunction, altered atrial structure, and atrial fibrillation [PDF]
Loss-of-function (LOF) variants in SCN1B, encoding the voltage-gated sodium channel β1/β1B subunits, are linked to neurological and cardiovascular diseases. Scn1b-null mice have spontaneous seizures and ventricular arrhythmias and die by approximately 21

Staged operation to fontan increases the incidence of sinoatrial node dysfunction [PDF]
Morbidity and mortality of total cavopulmonary connection (modified Fontan procedure) may be decreased in many patients with single ventricle in whom the risk of surgery is high by performing the operations in a staged fashion. Each operative intervention, however, exposes the sinoatrial node region to risk of injury, and a multistaged approach may ...

Insulin mitigates acute ischemia–induced atrial fibrillation and sinoatrial node dysfunction ex vivo [PDF]
Acute atrial ischemia is a well-known cause of postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF). However, mechanisms through which ischemia contributes to the development of POAF are not well understood.

Background Sinus node dysfunction because of abnormal impulse generation or sinoatrial conduction block causes bradycardia that can be difficult to differentiate from high parasympathetic/low sympathetic modulation (HP/LSM).

The genetic basis for inherited forms of sinoatrial dysfunction and atrioventricular node dysfunction [PDF]
The sinoatrial node (SAN) and the atrioventricular node (AVN) are the anatomical and functional regions of the heart which play critical roles in the generation and conduction of the electrical impulse. Their functions are ensured by peculiar structural cytological properties and specific collections of ion channels.

Lithium-Induced Sinoatrial Node Dysfunction. [PDF]
Lithium is a common mood-stabilizing drug for manic patients. We describe a case of sinoatrial node dysfunction in a patient with serum lithium levels within the therapeutic range. Given the symptomology and severity of the patient's illness, after placing a permanent pacemaker, the patient was discharged on the preadmission dose of lithium.

The sophisticated architecture of the rat atrioventricular node [PDF]
In the mammalian heart, the action potential spontaneously generated in the sinoatrial (SA) node propagates through the atria to reach the atrioventricular (AV) node.

D-galactose causes sinoatrial node dysfunction: from phenotype to mechanism. [PDF]
With the population aging, age-related sinoatrial node dysfunction (SND) has been on the rise. Sinoatrial node (SAN) degeneration is an important factor for the age-related SND development. However, there is no suitable animal modeling method in this field.

Sinoatrial node dysfunction after stereotactic ablative radiation therapy in the chest.
132 Background: Sinoatrial node (SAN) injury following stereotactic ablative radiation therapy (SABR) in the chest has not been reported in the literature. We report SAN dysfunction as a potential toxicity of SABR in the chest. Methods: We examined the clinical courses and SABR plans of 47 patients treated for T1 or T2 non-small cell lung cancer of ...
