Electrocardiographic and Skin Manifestations of Turner Syndrome: Association With Cardiovascular Disease

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Congenital heart disease (CHD) and dermatologic conditions such as lymphedema and acquired melanocytic nevi (AMN) are common in Turner Syndrome (TS). We hypothesized that abnormalities of cranial neural crest cell derivatives drive the skin and heart manifestations of TS. We conducted joint cardiac and skin examinations of volunteers at a 2023

Cardiac Device Algorithms for Optimal Outcomes in Patients with Sick Sinus Syndrome [PDF]

, 2013
Sick sinus syndrome (SSS) is a relatively common chronic condition affecting the electrical conduction system of the heart. In the absence of any reversible cause of SSS, the most effective treatment is implantation of a permanent pacemaker to maintain ...

A preliminary assessment of the effects of ATI-2042 in subjects with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation using implanted pacemaker methodology

, 2009
Aims ATI-2042 (budiodarone) is a chemical analogue of amiodarone with a half life of 7 h. It is electrophysiologically similar to amiodarone, but may not have metabolic and interaction side effects.

Racing hearts in the ED: When atrial tachyarrhythmias Herald hidden culprits

JEM Reports
Background: Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained arrhythmia in the general population. Patients with atrial fibrillations commonly go to Emergency Departments (ED) with complications or aggravation of symptoms.

Discordant Alternans as a Mechanism for Initiation of Ventricular Fibrillation In Vitro

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2018
Background Ventricular tachyarrhythmias are often preceded by short sequences of premature ventricular complexes. In a previous study, a restitution‐based computational model predicted which sequences of stimulated premature complexes were most likely to

Pulseless Electrical Activity as the Initial Cardiac Arrest Rhythm: Importance of Preexisting Left Ventricular Function

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2021
Background Pulseless electrical activity (PEA) is a common initial rhythm in cardiac arrest. A substantial number of PEA arrests are caused by coronary ischemia in the setting of acute coronary occlusion, but the underlying mechanism is not well ...

Equine models in translational medicine: A comparative approach to human health

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This diagram summarizes and contrasts rodent and equine models, outlining their strengths, limitations, and applications. Horses offer naturally occurring diseases, genetic and physiological similarities to humans, and suitability for longitudinal and clinical‐scale studies.

Novel SCN5A mutation associated with idiopathic ventricular fibrillation due to subclinical Brugada syndrome

Cardiogenetics, 2011
Idiopathic ventricular fibrillation can be caused by subclinical channelopathies such as Brugada syndrome. Our objective is to study the clinical behaviour of a new SCN5A mutation found in a woman with idiopathic ventricular fibrillation.

Management of sudden cardiac death in cardiac sarcoidosis using the wearable cardioverter defibrillator. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
Patients with cardiac sarcoidosis are at increased risk of ventricular tachycardia/fibrillation.We tested the hypothesis that the wearable cardioverter defibrillator can be used to mitigate the risk of sudden cardiac death among cardiac sarcoidosis ...
