Cisapride and ventricular arrhythmia [PDF]
WHAT IS ALREADY KNOWN ABOUT THIS SUBJECT • Case reports have linked cisapride to ventricular arrhythmia and sudden cardiac death.• However, two prior epidemiological studies have failed to show an association between cisapride and serious arrhythmia.

A review of alternative measurements in strain imaging for ventricular arrhythmia prediction [PDF]
Global longitudinal strain has been established as a reliable tool to assess global left ventricular function and a marker of subclinical left ventricular dysfunction unrecognized by the ejection fraction.

Introduction. Pharmacotherapy of cardiac arrhythmias is one of the urgent problems of modern medicine. The presence of serious side effects, in particular proarrhythmic action, limits the use of known antiarrhythmics in clinical practice.

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.

BackgroundCongestive heart failure (CHF) is a common cardiovascular disease that is often accompanied by ventricular arrhythmias. The decrease of the slow component of the delayed rectifier potassium current (IKs) in CHF leads to action potential (AP ...

It is well known that typical antipsychotic drugs have been implicated as a cause of ventricular arrhythmias and cardiac arrest; studies have shown that conventional antipsychotics increase the risk of hospitalization for ventricular arrhythmias or ...

Gene Transfer of Engineered Calmodulin Alleviates Ventricular Arrhythmias in a Calsequestrin-Associated Mouse Model of Catecholaminergic Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia [PDF]
Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) is a familial arrhythmogenic syndrome characterized by sudden death. There are several genetic forms of CPVT associated with mutations in genes encoding the cardiac ryanodine receptor (RyR2 ...

Purkinje fibres (PFs) play an important role in some ventricular arrhythmias and acute ventricular stretch can evoke mechanically-induced arrhythmias. We tested whether Purkinje fibres, play a role in these arrhythmias.

Sex and Gender Differences in Ventricular Arrhythmias
Ventricular arrhythmias, including ventricular tachycardia and VF, commonly occur in patients with underlying cardiomyopathy. Sex differences exist in almost every aspect of ventricular arrhythmia from epidemiology, anatomy, and physiology to management ...

Regulation of gap junction function; the role of nitric oxide. [PDF]
Myocardial ischemia resulting from sudden occlusion of a coronary artery is one of the major causes in the appearance of severe, often life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias.
