normal 0 false false false en-us x-none fa background : fahr's disease is a rare neurodegenerative disorder of unknown cause characterized by idiopathic basal ganglia calcification that is associated with neuropsychiatric and cognitive impairment. no case of fahr's disease with associated cardiac conduction disease has been described in the literature to date. the objective of this case report ...

background: myocardial ischemia is one of several causes of prolonged qt dispersion. the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect that percutaneous coronary intervention has on the depolarization and repolarization parameters of surface electrocardiography in patients with chronic stable angina. methods: we assessed the effects of full revascularization in patients with chronic stable angin...

background: ventriculoatrial (va) conduction has an important role in the initiation and maintenance of some arrhythmias. the aim of this study was to evaluate whether clinical and electrophysiological parameters of atrioventricular (av) conduction can predict va conduction. methods: detailed demographic, electrocardiographic, and echocardiographic data were recorded in 54 consecutive patients ...

cardiac conduction system enables the heart to pulsate continuously by producing electric impulse and conducting it. as the anatomical information about cardiac conduction system in human being and other mammals needed in various fields of sciences, such as anatomy, histology, physiology, pathology and cardiology, the present review article intends to provide this basic information about an imp...

acute yew (taxus baccata) intoxication was induced in 7 adult sheep by oral administration of the plant materials at the dose of 2.5g/kg body weight. blood samples for hematology and serum biochemistry were collected before and after the induced intoxication.electrocardiography was performed using a base-apex lead. intoxicated animals displayed lethargy, depression, bradycardia and varying inte...

Kearns-Sayre syndrome is a mitochondrial myopathy, which was first described by Tomas Kearn in 1958. Diagnostic symptoms of this condition include retinitis pigmentosa, chronic progressive external ophthalmoplegia, and one or more of the following factors: cardiac conduction system diseases, cerebellar ataxia, and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) with protein content above 100 mg/dL. The nature of thi...

The ventricular conduction system represents the electrical wiring responsible for the co-ordination of cardiac contraction. Defects in the circuit produce a delay or conduction block and induce cardiac arrhythmias. Understanding how this circuit forms and identification of the factors important for its development thus provide insights into the origin of cardiac arrhythmias. Recent advances, u...
