Sleep-Disordered Breathing Destabilizes Ventricular Repolarization
Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) increases the risk of cardiac arrhythmias, sudden death, and all-cause mortality. To characterize the associations between SDB, intermittent hypoxemia, and the QT variability index (QTVI), a measure of ventricular ...

Cardiovascular regulation and vascular structure in prehypertension and coronary heart disease
The aim of this thesis was to characterize vascular structure and different aspects of cardiovascular regulation in otherwise healthy subjects with slightly elevated blood pressure and compare to healthy subjects with normotension and also investigate ...

Utilization and Prognosis of Cardiac Device Implantation in AL Versus ATTR Amyloidosis
ABSTRACT Introduction Cardiac amyloidosis can cause congestive heart failure, arrhythmias, and heart blocks, which frequently require cardiac device implantation (CDI). However, the differences between light chain (AL) amyloidosis and transthyretin (ATTR) amyloidosis CDI requirements are unknown. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted using the

Mitochondrial Ca2+ Influx Contributes to Arrhythmic Risk in Nonischemic Cardiomyopathy
BackgroundHeart failure (HF) is associated with increased arrhythmia risk and triggered activity. Abnormal Ca2+ handling is thought to underlie triggered activity, and mitochondria participate in Ca2+ homeostasis.

QT Interval Evaluation in Right Ventricular Pacing: Validation of a Novel Formula
Abstract Background QT interval measurement in the presence of right ventricular pacing (RVP) represents a clinical challenge. We therefore aimed to derive and validate a formula for QT estimation during RVP in a large cohort of pacemaker patients. Methods and Results We prospectively enrolled 100 patients in a derivation cohort and 487 in a validation

Evaluation of Tp-e interval and Tp-e/QT ratio in patients with rheumatoid arthritis
Objective: Several studies have suggested that the interval from the peak to the end of the electrocardiographic T wave (Tp-e) may correspond to the transmural dispersion of repolarization and that inreased Tp-e interval and Tp-e/QT ratio are associated

The effect of two consecutive ventricular premature stimuli (S1S2) during atrial pacing on dispersion of repolarization and inducibility of ventricular arrhythmias was studied in 16 dogs under control conditions and in four dogs in the presence of an ...

The isolated working guinea pig heart: A functional and electrophysiological characterisation
Abstract Small animal isolated perfused hearts have been used for over 150 years for the study of cardiac physiology and pharmacology. The guinea pig heart represents the smallest mammalian heart that replicates key features of the human heart – for example, with respect to cardiac action potential duration, ion channel expression, excitation ...
