Is arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy a paediatric problem too? [PDF]
Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) is a heart muscle disease that is often familial, characterized by arrhythmias of right ventricular origin, due to transmural fatty or fibrofatty replacement of atrophic myocardium. ARVC is usually

Abstract Background and Purpose Ventricular fibrillation (VF) in coronary heart disease accounts for up to 70% of sudden cardiac death. We examined whether diltiazem N‐oxide (DNO) has ischaemia‐selective antiarrhythmic activity. Experimental Approach Randomised and blinded experiments were performed in rat isolated hearts and in anaesthetised rats to ...

Clinical and electrophysiological characteristics of Purkinje-related ventricular arrhythmias associated with polymorphic ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: Little is known about the characteristics of Purkinje (P)-related ventricular arrhythmia (VA) that initiates polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (PMVT) and ventricular fibrillation (VF) and the outcome of ablation ...

Summary This second part of the S3 guideline on the diagnosis and treatment of alopecia areata (AA), presents key recommendations on topical and systemic therapy, quality of life and support services. The first part of the guideline, published separately, covers the definition and content of epidemiology and diagnosis as well as comorbidities, risk and

Chd4/NuRD and ThPOK cooperate to maintain transcriptional repression and nuclear organization in adult cardiomyocytes. Chd4 loss reduces miR‐150‐5p, relieving repression of Sprr1a, while ThPOK loss further enhances Sprr1a activation, possibly through altered chromatin–lamina interactions.

Catheter Ablation: Evolution and Efficiencies
ABSTRACT The present review includes a discussion the goals and pitfalls of efficiency in the medical profession, a historical perspective on the evolution of catheter ablation in the field of electrophysiology (EP), and the data regarding the relationship between efficiency and outcomes in the EP lab. Focus on efficacy is critical to maximize resource
