Cardiac Innervation and Sudden Cardiac Death [PDF]
Current Cardiology Reviews, 2009 The heart is extensively innervated and its performance is tightly controlled by the nervous system. Cardiac innervation density varies in diseased hearts leading to unbalanced neural activation and lethal arrhythmia. Diabetic sensory neuropathy causes silent myocardial ischemia, characterized by loss of pain perception during myocardial ischemia ...

Modifier genes for sudden cardiac death
European Heart Journal, 2018 Genetic conditions, even those associated with identical gene mutations, can present with variable clinical manifestations. One widely accepted explanation for this phenomenon is the existence of genetic factors capable of modifying the consequences of ...

European Journal of Epidemiology, 2018 Although overweight and obesity are established risk factors for some types of heart disease including ischemic heart disease, heart failure and atrial fibrillation, less is known about the association between adiposity and sudden cardiac death.

Sudden Cardiac Death in Hypertensive Patients
HYPERTENSION, 2019 In patients with hypertension, but without established cardiovascular disease, predictive factors for sudden cardiac death (SCD) remain undefined. We followed for an average of 10.3 years a cohort of 3242 initially untreated hypertensive patients without

Ion Channel Disorders and Sudden Cardiac Death
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2018 Long QT syndrome, short QT syndrome, Brugada syndrome and catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia are inherited primary electrical disorders that predispose to sudden cardiac death in the absence of structural heart disease.

European Journal of Preventive Cardiology, 2018 Aims Obesity is an increasing public health problem and a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. The aim of the study was to determine the main features and aetiologies in a large cohort of sudden cardiac deaths that occurred in obese subjects. Methods

European Journal of Epidemiology, 2018 Smoking is an established risk factor for cardiovascular disease including coronary heart disease and stroke, however, data regarding smoking and sudden cardiac death have not been summarized in a meta-analysis previously.

International Journal of Immunopathology and Pharmacology, 2000 A circadian variation of cardiac function with peak in the early morning was documented about twenty years ago. A circadian rhythm of platelet aggregability, in the same time of the day, was demonstrated in healthy young male subjects. The morning hours were also reported as crucial for sympathetic nervous system activity, for heart rate variability ...
