The mitochondrial DNA mutations associated with cardiac arrhythmia investigated in an LQTS family
Objective(s): As mitochondrial oxidative stress is probably entailed in ATP production, a candidate modifier factor for the long QT syndrome (LQTS) could be mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). It has been notified that ion channels' activities in cardiomyocytes are sensitive to the ATP level. Materials and Methods: The sample of the research was an Iranian family with LQTS for mutations by PCR-SSCP and...
متن کاملTransient global amnesia associated with cardiac arrhythmia and digitalis intoxication.
A 54-year-old woman with transient global amnesia (TGA) was found to have digitalis-induced bradyarrhythmia with atrioventricular dissociation. The amnesia cleared only upon resolution of the arrhythmia. Cardiac arrhythmia has been postulated as a cause, but TGA in the setting of cardiac arrhythmia has not been documented previously. Cardiac arrhythmia should be excluded in patients with TGA, a...

متن کاملErosive Pressure Dermatitis Associated with Cardiac Pacemaker
Erosive dermatitis is a skin reaction associated with implantable cardiac devices (ie, pacemakers and cardioverter defibrillators). We report a 65-year-old man with a history of several cerebrovascular attacks who developed an erythematous crusted erosive patch over the pacemaker site after implantation of two subsequent pacemakers. We suggest that physical irritation may be a trigger factor fo...
متن کاملThe Heart in Sternal Depression.
The place where the apex beat appears on the chest wall depends as much on the symmetry of the thorax as on the size of the heart. A change in the alignment of the spine, the posterior fulcrum of the thoracic cage, in the form of scoliosis, alters the position of the beat. Local deformity of the ribs which form the walls of the cage will do the same thing. Deformity of the sternum, the anterior...
