Effect of doxycycline on chronic intermittent hypoxia-induced atrial remodeling in ratsHerz - Tập 45 - Trang 668-675 - 2018
K. Zhang, Z. Ma, W. Wang, R. Liu, Y. Zhang, M. Yuan, G. Li
Atrial remodeling in the form of fibrosis is considered the basis in the
development of atrial fibrillation (AF). The aim of this study was to
investigate the effects of doxycycline on atrial remodeling induced by chronic
intermittent hypoxia (CIH) and the mechanisms underlying such changes. A total
of 45 Sprague-Dawley rats were randomized into three groups: control group, CIH
group, CIH with dox... hiện toàn bộ
Management of Atrial FibrillationHerz - Tập 31 - Trang 849-856 - 2006
Timothy Watson, Gregory Y. H. Lip
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia, affecting an
estimated 4.5 million people within the European Union. Indeed, the prevalence
of AF continues to rise, in view of the aging population and the better
management of heart attacks, making it the new “epidemic”. Irrespective of a
rate control or rhythm control strategy, appropriate antithrombotic therapy is
central to AF ma... hiện toàn bộ

Spontaneous left atrial reentry tachycardiasHerz - Tập 40 - Trang 66-72 - 2013
R. Schneider, C. Schneider, D. Bänsch
Spontaneous left atrial reentry tachycardias (LART) in patients without previous
cardiac surgical or catheter ablation are rare. Several therapeutic concepts of
catheter ablation have been suggested: linear lesions (LL), circumferential
pulmonary vein isolation (PVI), and both (LL + PVI). In all, 28 consecutive
symptomatic patients with 51 LARTs presented to our institution for catheter
ablation. ... hiện toàn bộ
Peripartum cardiomyopathyHerz - - 2018
T. Koenig, D. Hilfiker-Kleiner, J. Bauersachs
Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) is a rare and potentially life-threatening
disease that occurs toward the end of pregnancy or in the months following
delivery in previously heart-healthy women. The incidence varies widely
depending on geographical region and ethnic background, with an estimated number
of 1 in 1000–1500 pregnancies in Germany. The course of the disease ranges from
mild forms with ... hiện toàn bộ
Impact of coronary artery disease on in-hospital mortality in patients with aortic valve diseaseHerz - Tập 38 - Trang 387-390 - 2013
R. Höllriegel, A. Linke, M. Hochadel, G. Schuler, S. Kerber, R. Hambrecht, E. Grube, K.E. Hauptmann, R. Zahn, U. Zeymer, J. Senges
Although aortic valve disease (AVD) is frequently associated with coronary
artery disease (CAD), little is known about the impact of significant coronary
artery disease on mortality after diagnostic cardiac catheterization in patients
with AVD. We analyzed data of the coronary angiography registry of the
“Arbeitsgemeinschaft Leitende Kardiologische Krankenhausärzte” (ALKK) in
Germany. The primary ... hiện toàn bộ
