Subcutaneous nerve activity and mechanisms of sudden death in a rat model of chronic kidney disease [PDF]

, 2016
BACKGROUND: The mechanisms of sudden death in chronic kidney disease (CKD) remain unclear. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to test the hypotheses that subcutaneous nerve activity (SCNA) can be used to estimate sympathetic tone in ...

HCN4, Sinus Bradycardia and Atrial Fibrillation [PDF]

Arrhythmia & Electrophysiology Review, 2015
Based on their established role in the generation of spontaneous activity in pacemaker cells and control of cardiac rate, funny/hyperpolarisation-activated, cyclic nucleotide gated 4 (HCN4) channels are natural candidates in the search for causes of sinus arrhythmias.

Safety and Efficacy of MA01‐100: A Prospective Multicenter Trial of China's First Domestic Implantable Cardiac Monitor

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Unexplained syncope and palpitations are common chief complaints in the outpatient department of cardiology. Their sporadic and unpredictable poses significant diagnostic challenges. Implantable cardiac monitors (ICMs) can monitor arrhythmia events efficiently, and can overcome the shortcomings of traditional electrocardiogram (ECG)

Pulmonary Vein Isolation in Elderly Patients With Atrial Fibrillation and Symptomatic Sick Sinus Syndrome: A Case Series

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), sinus node disease (SND) represents a potentially reversible concomitant condition. Initial treatment with catheter ablation (CA) aimed at restoration of sinus rhythm may provide an alternative to pacemaker implantation. In this case series, 15 elderly patients (>65 years) with AF and SND underwent CA,

Real‐World Treatment of Patients With Sinus Node Dysfunction and Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Permanent pacemaker (PPM) implantation is recommended in patients with sinus node dysfunction (SND). In patients with coexisting heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), clinicians may be hesitant to treat SND due to concerns about exacerbating heart failure.

Protective immunity against Trypanosoma cruzi [PDF]

, 2009
Upon infection, Trypanosoma cruzi triggers a strong immune response that has both protective and pathological consequences. In this work, several important questions regarding protective immunity are reviewed.

Transthoracic Echocardiography‐Guided Implantation of Aveir VR Leadless Pacemaker Without Fluoroscopy

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Leadless pacemaker implantation traditionally relies on fluoroscopy and contrast‐guided techniques. However, in patients with advanced chronic kidney disease, the use of contrast carries a risk of nephrotoxicity, and fluoroscopy leads to additional ionizing radiation exposure.

Early Mobilization After Pacemaker Implantation

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The increasing use of cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIED) is leading to a rise in procedure‐related complications. Objective This trial aimed to assess the safety and feasibility of early mobilization and the possibility of same‐day discharge following permanent pacemaker implantation.

Electrophysiological and sick sinus syndrome effects of Remdesivir challenge in guinea-pig hearts

Frontiers in Physiology
Remdesivir (RDV) is the first drug approved by the FDA for clinical treatment of hospitalized patients infected with COVID-19 because it has been shown to have good antiviral activity against a variety of viruses, including Arenaviridae and Coronaviridae

Long‐Term Outcomes of Radiofrequency Atrioventricular Node Ablation in a Real‐World Population

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background While interventional strategies have expanded the options for long term rhythm restoration, rate control continues to play a pivotal role in the treatment of atrial arrhythmias; however, pharmacologic strategies alone often fail in achieving effective rate control.
