Heart Rate Reserve in Fontan Patients: Chronotropic Incompetence or Hemodynamic Limitation?

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019
Background Patients with a Fontan circulation achieve lower peak heart rates (HR) during exercise. Whether this impaired chronotropic response reflects pathology of the sinoatrial node or is a consequence of altered cardiac hemodynamics is uncertain.

ADENYLYL CYCLASE TYPE 9: REGULATION AND CARDIAC FUNCTION [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Abnormalities in cardiac stress signaling underlie a number of cardiovascular diseases (e.g. arrhythmias and heart failure). Cardiac stress signaling pathways normally integrate signals from the sympathetic nervous system to promote efficient contraction

Sinus Node Dysfunction and Atrial Fibrillation Associated with Isolated Sinoatrial Node Artery Ectasia

open access: yesElectronic Journal of General Medicine, 2013
A 74 year-old female patient was admitted to emergency service with a complaints of dizziness and shortness of breath. Complete atrioventricular block was observed and patient was followed up two days with transient transvenous cardiac pacemaker. Afterthat, atrial fibrillation (AF) was progressed and then, coronary angiography was scheduled.

Cardiac remodelling in type 2 diabetes: Pathophysiological mechanisms and opportunities for multiscale computational modelling and simulation

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Overview of multiscale cardiac remodelling in type 2 diabetes and how to model and simulate these changes using a human‐based, multiscale computational framework. Cardiac remodelling in type 2 diabetes occurs at ionic channel, protein, cellular, tissue and whole‐organ level, affecting the electrophysiological function, mechanical

The Evolution of Sinoatrial Node Function in Man [PDF]

open access: yes, 1973
The function of the sinoatrial node is complex. In nearly all hearts, this small bit of tissue is responsible for spontaneously generating the impulse which will be distributed to the remainder of the heart, maintaining coordinated electrical and ...

Mathematical model of the zebrafish ventricular cardiomyocyte action potential and calcium transient

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend This study presents the development and validation of the first biophysically detailed computational model of the zebrafish ventricular action potential (AP). The model is based on a human cardiomyocyte framework and reparameterized using published and newly generated patch‐clamp recordings of zebrafish ionic currents.

Mechanisms of sinoatrial node dysfunction in a canine model of pacing-induced atrial fibrillation [PDF]

open access: yesHeart Rhythm, 2010
The mechanism of sinoatrial node (SAN) dysfunction in atrial fibrillation (AF) is unclear.The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that defective spontaneous sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+) release (Ca(2+) clock) is in part responsible for SAN dysfunction in AF.Arrhythmic events and SAN function were evaluated in pacing-induced AF dogs ...
