Researchers have determined the molecular mechanism underlying a cardiac arrhythmia syndrome. They discovered that it can lead to sudden death in young, seemingly healthy people. The passage of such ...

Virus infections can cause cardiac arrhythmia. Scientists of the Max Delbrück Center in Berlin, Germany, have now discovered the molecular mechanism. They demonstrated that the receptor which the ...

Mutations in genes that form the desmosome are the most common cause of the cardiac disease arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM), which affects one in 2,000 to 5,000 people worldwide. Researchers ...

Researchers identified a lipid that is involved in regulating cardiac ion channels, providing insights into possible mechanisms of cardiac arrhythmias in heart failure and a potential pathway for ...

The mechanism of action of diphenylhydantoin in cardiac arrhythmias has not been established. Certain actions have been described, however, that may partly explain the effectiveness of the drug.

Researchers identified a lipid that is involved in regulating cardiac ion channels, providing insights into possible mechanisms of cardiac arrhythmias in heart failure and a potential pathway for ...

A heart arrhythmia is an irregular heartbeat, which means it can be too quick, slow, or beat with an abnormal rhythm.

Although aging is an established risk factor for the development of cardiac arrhythmia, the mechansims underlying this connection have been hard to pin down, hindering progress toward the ...

Researchers say that the American Heart Association predicts that more than 12 million people will have AFib by 2030, and existing treatment approaches are inadequate.

The diabetes-arrhythmia connection. The Framingham Heart Study is one of the most famous and fruitful research efforts ever undertaken. It began in 1948 with 5,000-plus study participants—all ...
