Remodeling of cardiac gap junctions: the relationship to the genesis of ventricular tachycardia.

Abstract:

:Cardiac gap junctions are responsible for normal conduction properties of the ventricles. Alteration in gap junction distribution (remodeling) in ischemic heart disease is likely to be an important cause of life threatening ventricular arrhythmias.

  • Does the abnormal signal-averaged electrocardiogram predict future appropriate therapy in patients with implantable cardioverter-defibrillators?

    abstract:BACKGROUND:Several studies have documented the prognostic significance of the signal-averaged electrocardiogram (SAECG) both after myocardial infarction and nonischemic cardiomyopathy. However, whether the SAECG can identify patients with implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) who receive appropriate therapy has ...
