Clinical and molecular characterization of a cardiac ryanodine receptor founder mutation causing catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia [PDF]
Background Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) is a difficult-to-diagnose cause of sudden cardiac death (SCD). We identified a family of 1400 individuals with multiple cases of CPVT, including 36 SCDs during youth.

Antiarrhythmic and proarrhythmic effects of subcutaneous nerve stimulation in ambulatory dogs [PDF]
Background High output subcutaneous nerve stimulation (ScNS) remodels the stellate ganglia and suppresses cardiac arrhythmia. Objective To test the hypothesis that long duration low output ScNS causes cardiac nerve sprouting, increases plasma ...

Rapidly Fatal Multiple Organ Failure of Intravenous Amiodarone: A Case Report and Literature Review. [PDF]
This graphical abstract illustrates the diagnostic journey of a 75‐year‐old male with severe coughing, breathing difficulties, using the patient's electrocardiogram (ECG) recordings as the pivotal clue for identifying atrial flutter with rapid ventricular response.

Cryoballoon or Radiofrequency Ablation for Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation.
BACKGROUND Current guidelines recommend pulmonary-vein isolation by means of catheter ablation as treatment for drug-refractory paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Radiofrequency ablation is the most common method, and cryoballoon ablation is the second most

The 4q25 variant rs13143308T links risk of atrial fibrillation to defective calcium homoeostasis [PDF]
Aims: Single nucleotide polymorphisms on chromosome 4q25 have been associated with risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) but the exiguous knowledge of the mechanistic links between these risk variants and underlying electrophysiological alterations hampers ...
