Cardiac electrophysiology in mice: a matter of size
Over the last decade, mouse models have become a popular instrument for studying cardiac arrhythmias. This review assesses in which respects a mouse heart is a miniature human heart, a suitable model for studying mechanisms of cardiac arrhythmias in humans and in which respects human and murine hearts differ. Section I considers the issue of scaling of mammalian cardiac (electro) physiology to ...
متن کاملCardiac Electrophysiology
Recently, significant achievements have beenmade in cardiac electrophysiology research, including Ca regulatory pathways, membrane ion channel-related intracellular signaling, and electrical remodeling in cardiomyopathies. The rapid progress in the basic research has led to applications of numerous new methods and strategies to clinical diagnoses and treatments. The efficacy of antiarrhythmic p...
متن کاملProtective effects of gallic acid on cardiac electrophysiology and arrhythmias during reperfusion in diabetes
Objective(s): Gallic acid (GA), a potent anti-oxidant, plays an important role in reducing diabetic induced cardiac disorders. Therefore, the present investigation was purposed to determine the beneficial effect of GA in cardiac arrhythmias during reperfusion in diabetes induced by alloxan. Materials and Methods: Male Sprague-Dawley rats...

Case Presentation No. 1 A 52-year-old man was referred for recurrent palpitations after 2 prior electrophysiology studies and ablations at an outside institution targeting right anteroseptal and left posterolateral accessory pathways (AP) for orthodromic reentrant tachycardia (ORT). Baseline ECG revealed sinus rhythm without preexcitation and an incomplete right bundle branch block. An ECG from...

Case Presentation A 60-year-old man with a history of remote myocarditis and residual mild left ventricular dysfunction presented with syncope. Before admission, the patient was not taking any regular medications. Medical history was otherwise unremarkable. Examination at presentation was unremarkable, apart from slow atrial fibrillation (AF). ECG on presentation demonstrated AF with slow ventr...
