Hippocrates, cardiology, Confucius and the Yellow Emperor.

Abstract:

:Although Hippocrates (460-c.375 BC) has been traditionally recognized as the Father of Medicine, the fact that he was seminal in the development of cardiology is much less well known. Evidence is presented to support the notion that Hippocrates could also be considered the Father of Cardiology. Hippocrates also had many of the teachings and practices in common with Confucius (c.551-c.479 BC) and the Yellow Emperor of China (2695-2589 BC). Whereas Confucius was not a physician, the Yellow Emperor was an ancient Chinese physician whose Huang Di Neijing, the Yellow Emperor's Canon of Internal Medicine, is the oldest known treatise of medicine in existence.

  • Beta1-adrenergic receptor polymorphisms, QTc interval and occurrence of symptoms in type 1 of long QT syndrome.

    abstract:BACKGROUND:The most prevalent LQT1 form of inherited long QT syndrome is caused by mutations of the KCNQ1 gene resulting repolarizing I(Ks) potassium current to decrease and the QT interval to prolong. As abrupt sympathetic activation triggers ventricular arrhythmias that may cause syncopal attacks and sudden death in ...
