Sympathetic reinnervation of the sinus node and exercise hemodynamics after cardiac transplantation.
BACKGROUND Sympathetic cardiac reinnervation occurs variably after cardiac transplantation (CT) in humans. We hypothesized that sinus node reinnervation would partially restore normal chronotropic response to exercise. METHODS AND RESULTS Thirteen recent CT recipients, 28 late CT recipients (> or =1 year after CT), and 20 control subjects were studied. Sinus node sympathetic reinnervation was...
متن کاملImproved cardiac function after renal transplantation.
There are few reports of the outcome of renal transplantation in patients with severe left ventricular (LV) impairment. We describe three men with chronic disabling heart failure associated with LV dysfunction in whom a remarkable improvement in cardiac function followed renal transplantation. Transplantation may offer the prospect of successful rehabilitation in these circumstances. Undue pess...
متن کاملComparison of Olfactory Function before and After Endoscopic Sinus Surgery
Introduction: Olfactory loss in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis has been measured by different methods. However, the results have been variable, and it is not clear whether endoscopic sinus surgery significantly improves olfactory function. This study was performed to evaluate the influence of endoscopic sinus surgery on olfactory function in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis. Material...
متن کاملRemodeling of sinus node function in patients with congestive heart failure: reduction in sinus node reserve.
BACKGROUND Experimental and clinical studies have demonstrated diffuse atrial remodeling in congestive heart failure (CHF). We hypothesized that patients with CHF would demonstrate derangement of sinus node function. METHODS AND RESULTS Eighteen patients with symptomatic CHF (left ventricular ejection fraction, 26+/-5%) and 18 age-matched control subjects were studied. Under autonomic blockad...
متن کاملElectrophysiologic effects of disopyramide phosphate on sinus node function in patients with sinus node dysfunction.
The electrophysiologic effects of intravenously administered disopyramide (2 mg/kg) on three parameters of sinus node function were examined in 16 symptomatic patients with sinus node dysfunction. Based on their ECG data before study, patients were subdivided into group A (n = 8), those with sinus pauses and/or sinoatrial (SA) exit block; and group B (n = 8), those with sinus bradycardia. Disop...
