Transient outward K+ current (ITO) reduction prolongs action potentials and promotes afterdepolarisations: a dynamic-clamp study in human and rabbit cardiac atrial myocytes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background and aim: Human atrial transient outward K+ current (ITO) is decreased in a variety of cardiac pathologies, but how ITO reduction alters action potentials (AP) and arrhythmia mechanisms is poorly understood, owing to non-selectivity of ITO ...

Explainable artificial intelligence for heart rate variability in ECG signal

open access: yesHealthcare Technology Letters, 2020
Electrocardiogram (ECG) signal is one of the most reliable methods to analyse the cardiovascular system. In the literature, there are different deep learning architectures proposed to detect various types of tachycardia diseases, such as atrial ...

Potential Application of Pulsed Field Ablation in Ventricular Arrhythmias

open access: yesMedicina, 2023
Pulsed field ablation (PFA) is a new ablative method for the therapy of arrhythmia. Recent preclinical and clinical studies have already demonstrated the feasibility and safety of PFA for the treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF).

Cathepsin A Mediates Ventricular Remote Remodeling and Atrial Cardiomyopathy in Rats With Ventricular Ischemia/Reperfusion

open access: yesJACC: Basic to Translational Science, 2019
Summary: After myocardial infarction, remote ventricular remodeling and atrial cardiomyopathy progress despite successful revascularization. In a rat model of ventricular ischemia/reperfusion, pharmacological inhibition of the protease activity of ...

Unfortunately Fortunate

open access: yesJACC: Case Reports, 2020
An 88-year-old female presented with inappropriate implantable cardioverter-defibrillator shocks. Interrogation revealed lead noise sensed as ventricular fibrillation, leading to 11 shocks in 1 day. A defibrillation at the period of maximal vulnerability

Early Repolarization Pattern and Idiopatic Sustained Monomorphic Ventricular Tachycardia: an Infrequent Combination

open access: yesJournal of Cardiac Arrhythmias, 2021
Malignant early repolarization as cause of sudden death has taken on great importance in recent years. It has been described as an entity capable of producing ventricular arrhythmic events, causing from episodes of syncope to sudden cardiac death ...

Added Prognostic Value of EEG Reactivity in Comatose Patients Following Cardiac Arrest

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To evaluate the added prognostic value of EEG reactivity for favorable outcome compared with background analysis during and after targeted temperature management (TTM). Methods Prospective observational cohort study of comatose post–cardiac arrest patients admitted to a single academic center between 2017 and 2022, all undergoing ...

Electrophysiological and arrhythmogenic effects of 5-hydroxytryptamine on human atrial cells are reduced in atrial fibrillation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
5-Hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) is proarrhythmic in atrial cells from patients in sinus rhythm (SR) via activation of 5-HT<sub>4</sub> receptors, but its effects in atrial cells from patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) are unknown.

Clinical Outcomes in Patients With Nonobstructive, Labile, and Obstructive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2018
BackgroundHypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a common inherited cardiac disease characterized by varying degrees of left ventricular outflow tract obstruction. In a large cohort, we compare the outcomes among 3 different hemodynamic groups. Methods and
