background: isolated right bundle branch block (rbbb) is a common finding in the general population. the atrioventricular node (avn) artery contributes to the blood supply of the right bundle branch. our hypothesis was that the anatomy of the avn artery and the pattern of dominancy differ between subjects with and without rbbb. methods: w e retrospectively studied the coronary angiography of 92...
We report the results of conservative treatment of stage III and stage IV avascular necrosis of bone (AVN) affecting the hip or knee in renal transplant patients. Twenty-nine patients were followed for a mean period of five years. Conservative management was successful in controlling symptoms in 40% of those with AVN of the hip and in 70% of those with AVN of the knee. Knowledge of the natural ...
Since the first description of the anatomical atrioventricular nodes (AVNs), a large number of studies have provided insights into the heterogeneity of the structure as well as a repertoire of ion channel proteins that govern this complex conduction pathway between the atria and ventricles. These studies have revealed the intricate organization of multiple nodal and nodal-like myocytes contribu...
BACKGROUND Studies of the epidemiology and outcomes of avascular necrosis (AVN) require accurate case-finding methods. The aim of this study was to evaluate performance characteristics of a claims-based algorithm designed to identify AVN cases in administrative data. METHODS Using a centralized patient registry from a US academic medical center, we identified all adults aged ≥18 years who und...
Synovitis of the affected joint is a common in avascular osteonecrosis (AVN). Increased levels of pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-6 (IL-6) have been reported in AVN, but the mechanism of this increase remains unclear. Silent information regulator transcript-1 (SIRT1), an NAD-dependent deacetylase, inhibits the release of inflammatory cytokines. Interferon β (IFN-β) has clear anti-inflamma...
Data from the International Collaborative Gaucher Group Gaucher Registry were analysed to assess the relationship between enzyme replacement therapy with imiglucerase (ERT) and incidence of avascular necrosis (AVN) in type 1 Gaucher disease (GD1), and to determine whether the time interval between diagnosis and initiation of ERT influences the incidence rate of AVN. All patients with GD1 enroll...
BACKGROUND Posteroseptal ablation of the atrioventricular node (AVN) has been proposed as a means to slow the ventricular rate during atrial fibrillation (AF). The suggested mechanism is elimination of the AVN "slow pathway." On the basis of the unpredictable success of the procedure, we hypothesize that, in fact, the slow pathway is preserved. Therefore, the slowing of the ventricular rate res...
We describe a rare association of Cushing's disease causing avascular osteonecrosis of the femoral head in a patient with operated pituitary macroadenoma. Avascular necrosis of the femoral head (AVN) is not a common cause of musculoskeletal disability. Though AVN of the hip is a well-recognized complication of steroid treatment, it is rare in cases of endogenous hypercortisolism. To our knowled...
BACKGROUND We have previously demonstrated that selective atrioventricular nodal (AVN) vagal stimulation (AVN-VS) can be used to control ventricular rate during atrial fibrillation (AF) in acute experiments. However, it is not known whether this approach could provide a long-term treatment in conscious animals. Thus, this study reports the first observations on the long-term efficacy and safety...
The efficacy of i.v. and oral verapamil was studied in 28 patients with supraventricular tachycardia (SVT). Verapamil (5-10 mg i.v.) terminated SVT in all six patients with atrioventricular nodal (AVN) reentrant tachycardia. In all patients verapamil prolonged antegrade but did not affect retrograde AVN conduction time. Two patients had associated sinus nodal reentrant tachycardia that persiste...
