Human heart rate variability relation is unchanged during motion sickness.
In a study of 18 human subjects, we applied a new technique, estimation of the transfer function between instantaneous lung volume (ILV) and instantaneous heart rate (HR), to assess autonomic activity during motion sickness. Two control recordings of ILV and electrocardiogram (ECG) were made prior to the development of motion sickness. During the first, subjects were seated motionless, and duri...
متن کاملIntracellular Na(+) concentration is elevated in heart failure but Na/K pump function is unchanged.
BACKGROUND Intracellular sodium concentration ([Na(+)](i)) modulates cardiac contractile and electrical activity through Na/Ca exchange (NCX). Upregulation of NCX in heart failure (HF) may magnify the functional impact of altered [Na(+)](i). METHODS AND RESULTS We measured [Na(+)](i) by using sodium binding benzofuran isophthalate in control and HF rabbit ventricular myocytes (HF induced by a...
متن کاملHeart attack or rhabdomyolysis?
Statins are commonly used drugs in the treatment of hyperlipidemia (HL), despite some undesirable side effects. These range from mild symptoms such as myopathy, muscle weakness and myalgia to severe muscle weakness associated with chronic myopathy and acute renal failure (ARF) as a result of rhabdomyolysis. The most serious and deadly side effect of statins is rhabdomyolysis. The case presente...
متن کاملC-terminal neurogranin is increased in cerebrospinal fluid but unchanged in plasma in Alzheimer's disease
INTRODUCTION Biomarkers monitoring synaptic degeneration/loss would be valuable for Alzheimer's disease (AD) diagnosis. Postsynaptic protein neurogranin may be a promising cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarker but has not yet been evaluated as a plasma biomarker. METHODS Using an in-house designed prototype enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) targeting neurogranin C-terminally, we studied...
متن کاملRegular pulse rate but irregular heart rate?
This 30-year-old male patient attended the emergency department because of dizziness accompanied by selfassessed regular pulse rates of 30–40 bpm. Physical examination was normal but cardiac auscultation revealed frequent premature beats. A subsequent 12-lead ECG documented the arrhythmia (Fig. 1). Similar episodes had occurred 12 months ago but thorough cardiac evaluation, including echocardio...
