Intensive blood pressure control has been suggested to reduce the risk of adverse cardiovascular events. However, the effect of intensive blood pressure control on cardiac conduction system disease ...

An analysis of SPRINT trial data may recast disorders of left ventricular (LV) conduction, usually considered something to manage after the fact, as preventable. The study points to hypertension as a ...

When Mayo Clinic researchers sequenced the genomes of 484 seemingly healthy adults, they found that about 13% carried a serious, previously unrecognized genetic risk—conditions those patients did not ...

New research highlights postnatal regeneration limits and pathological remodeling of the cardiac conduction system after myocardial infarction, uncovering mechanisms behind clinical arrhythmogenesis ...

The proteomic profile of the human cardiac conduction system: the sinoatrial node (SAN) and atrioventricular node (AVN), remains poorly understood. The aim of the current study is to identify ...

Cardiac physiologic pacing, also known as cardiac resynchronization therapy, is indicated in patients with heart failure, reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of 50% or less, and either a ...

San Diego, CA - Working with both mouse and human subjects, a team of researchers has identified the underlying molecular pathway that appears to trigger progressive heart failure and sudden death in ...
