Lack of effect of anti-hypertensive treatment with felodipine on cardiovascular structure of young spontaneously hypertensive rats.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Automatic analysis of the frequency content of the fibrillatory baseline on the surface ECG accurately reflects the average rate of atrial fibrillation (AF). This frequency measurement correlates with the behavior of AF and predicts the response to administration of ibutilide, a new antiarrhythmic drug. Neith...

abstract：AIMS:Brugada syndrome (BrS) is an autosomal-inherited cardiac arrhythmia characterized by an ST-segment elevation in the right precordial leads of the electrocardiogram and an increased risk of syncope and sudden death. SCN5A, encoding the cardiac sodium channel Na(v)1.5, is the main gene involved in BrS. Despite the f...
