Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Implantable cardioverter‐defibrillators (ICDs) are important in the prevention of sudden cardiac death. However, some appropriate ICD therapies may be considered unnecessary, delivered when patients do not experience symptoms of hemodynamic instability such as loss of consciousness.

Repolarization adaptation to rapid change in heart rate in human models – a review
The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend This review focuses on non‐invasive assessment of repolarization duration and dispersion (heterogeneity) adaptation to change in heart rate (HR). HR was increased incrementally by left atrial pacing during an electrophysiology (EP) study and by a bolus injection of atropine and in a step up/down fashion by repeated right atrial ...

Potential health benefits of cold‐water immersion: the central role of PGC‐1α
The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Cold‐water immersion (CWI) elicits autonomic, somato‐motoric (shivering thermogenesis), endocrine and metabolic, sensory transduction, and local biophysical effects that may converge on the transcriptional co‐activator PGC‐1α (centre).
