Cardiac disease and arrhythmogenesis: Mechanistic insights from mouse models.

International journal of cardiology. Heart & vasculature

Choy L, Yeo JM, Tse V, Chan SP, Tse G.
PMID: 27766308
Int J Cardiol Heart Vasc. 2016 Sep;12:1-10. doi: 10.1016/j.ijcha.2016.05.005.

The mouse is the second mammalian species, after the human, in which substantial amount of the genomic information has been analyzed. With advances in transgenic technology, mutagenesis is now much easier to carry out in mice. Consequently, an increasing...

Conduction abnormalities and ventricular arrhythmogenesis: The roles of sodium channels and gap junctions.

International journal of cardiology. Heart & vasculature

Tse G, Yeo JM.
PMID: 26839915
Int J Cardiol Heart Vasc. 2015 Dec 07;9:75-82. doi: 10.1016/j.ijcha.2015.10.003.

Ventricular arrhythmias arise from disruptions in the normal orderly sequence of electrical activation and recovery of the heart. They can be categorized into disorders affecting predominantly cellular depolarization or repolarization, or those involving action potential (AP) conduction. This article...

Evolving management and improving outcomes of pregnancy-associated spontaneous coronary artery dissection (P-SCAD): a systematic review.

International journal of cardiology. Heart & vasculature

Paratz ED, Kao C, MacIsaac AI, Somaratne J, Whitbourn R.

BACKGROUND: Pregnancy-associated spontaneous coronary artery dissection (P-SCAD) is defined as SCAD occurring during pregnancy or within 3 months post-partum. Earlier systematic reviews have suggested a high maternal and foetal mortality rate. We undertook a structured systematic review of P-SCAD...

Low-frequency and low-intensity ultrasound irradiation to the forearm improves an index of arterial stiffness in subjects with type 2 diabetes and hypertension.

International journal of cardiology. Heart & vasculature

OBJECTIVES: The arterial pressure-volume index (API) is a non-invasive assessment of arterial stiffness, and is suggested as a useful predictor of future cardiovascular events. The aim of the present study was to determine the effects of low-frequency and low-intensity...

Exercise self-efficacy in adults with congenital heart disease.

International journal of cardiology. Heart & vasculature

Bay A, Sandberg C, Thilén U, Wadell K, Johansson B.

BACKGROUND: There are limited data on the prevalence and outcomes of chronic total occlusions (CTO) of the coronary artery in acute myocardial infarction with cardiogenic shock (AMI-CS) patients.METHODS: Using the National Inpatient Sample, all admissions with AMI-CS that underwent...

Native T1 time and extracellular volume fraction in differentiation of normal myocardium from non-ischemic dilated and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy myocardium: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

International journal of cardiology. Heart & vasculature

Minegishi S, Kato S, Takase-Minegishi K, Horita N, Azushima K, Wakui H, Ishigami T, Kosuge M, Kimura K, Tamura K.
PMID: 31517037
Int J Cardiol Heart Vasc. 2019 Sep 07;25:100422. doi: 10.1016/j.ijcha.2019.100422. eCollection 2019 Dec.

BACKGROUND: Both native T1 time and extracellular volume (ECV) fraction have been shown to be important measures for the detection of myocardial fibrosis. However, ECV determination requires the administration of an intravenous contrast agent, whereas native T1 mapping can...

Clinical and electrocardiographic characteristics for prediction of new-onset atrial fibrillation in asymptomatic patients with atrial premature complexes.

International journal of cardiology. Heart & vasculature

Im SI, Park DH, Kim BJ, Cho KI, Kim HS, Heo JH.
