نویسنده
چکیده
PROLOGUE The following manuscript reviews a method of teaching the pathophysiology and pharmacology of cardiac arrhythmias. This manuscript is supplemented with a complimentary web site (http://www.onu.edu/user/fs/jsprague/AJPE.html). Those interested in obtaining further information can use this site for lecture notes, animations of cellular mechanisms, practice case reports, electrocardiograms (ECG) strips, and Powerpoint®, lecture presentations. The author hopes that other find this information useful in developing strategies for teaching this subject area.

Effects of Acetyl-L-Carnitine on Cardiac Arrhythmias and Infarct Size in Ischemic-Reperfused Isolated Rat Heart
Objective(s) This study aimed to examine whether acetyl-L-carnitine (ALC) was able to reduce cardiac arrhythmias and infarct size in the ischemic-reperfused isolated rat heart. Materials and Methods The isolated hearts were mounted on a Langendorff apparatus then perfused by a modified Krebs-Henseleit solution during 30 min regional ischemia and 120 min reperfusion (control) or by enriched K...
متن کاملPreconditioning effects of oxytocin in reducing cardiac arrhythmias in a rat heart regional ischemia-reperfusion model
Abstract Introduction: Occurrence of cardiac arrhythmias and myocardial infarction are two main deleterious events that are caused by ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury in the heart. Cardiac preconditioning represents the most potent method of rescuing heart tissue from undergoing irreversible ischemic damage. The aim of the present study was to evaluate oxytocin (OT) cardioprotective effect...
