Title: Specific Features of Depolarization of the Left and Right Atria in Rats with Alcoholic Cardiomyopathy. Author: Roshchevskaya IM, Smirnova SL, Tsorin IB, Stolyaruk VN, Nadorova AV, Vititnova MB, Kolik LG, Kryzhanovskii SA. Journal: Bull Exp Biol Med; 2018 Sep; 165(5):617-620. PubMed ID: 30225698. Abstract: Using a translation model of alcoholic cardiomyopathy in rats we showed the presence of an additional abnormal excitation focus in the area of the pulmonary vein lacunae in the left atrium and enhanced heterogeneity of the atrium depolarization pattern. These changes can determine electric instability of the myocardium and induce malignant heart rhythm disturbances including, sudden cardiac death.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
