Concept of the five ′A′s for treating emergency arrhythmias
Journal of Emergencies, Trauma and Shock, 2010 Cardiac rhythm disturbances such as bradycardia (heart rate < 50/min) and tachycardia (heart rate > 100/min) require rapid therapeutic intervention.

Interaction of hypothalamic GABA\u3csub\u3eA\u3c/sub\u3e and excitatory amino acid receptors controlling heart rate in rats [PDF]
, 1991 We have previously shown that microinjection of drugs that impair gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-mediated synaptic inhibition into the dorsomedial hypothalamus (DMH) of rats generates cardiovascular and behavioral changes that mimic the response to ...

Modeling cardiac rhythm and heart rate using BFO and DOLCE [PDF]
, 2009 This paper presents an application ontology for modeling cardiac rhythm and its anomalies such as tachycardia and bradycardia. We use BFO and DOLCE as ontological reference framework in order to compare their impact on ontology design.
