abstract：:The mechanism by which rapid pacing induces ventricular fibrillation (VF) is unclear. We performed computerized epicardial mapping studies in 10 dogs, using 19-beat pacing trains. The pacing interval (PI) of the first train was 300 ms and then was progressively shortened until VF was induced. For each PI, we construct...

In the perinatal period, cardiomyocytes still proliferate, and the heart shows the capacity to regenerate upon injury. In the adult heart, however, the actual rate of cardiomyocyte renewal is too low to efficiently counteract substantial ...
