Calcium Alternans is Due to an Order-Disorder Phase Transition in Cardiac Cells
(2015-03-12)
Article
Open AccessElectromechanical alternans is a beat-to-beat alternation in the strength of contraction of a cardiac cell, which can be caused by an instability of calcium cycling. Using a distributed model of subcellular calcium we show ... -
Cardiac tissue engineering by electrical stimulation with subcutaneous and cardiac adipose-tissue derived progenitor cells (ATDPCs)
(Fundació 'La Caixa', 2011)
Other
Restricted access - publisher's policyA major challenge of cardiac tissue engineering is directing cells to establish the physiological structure and function of the myocardium being replaced. In native heart, pacing cells generate electrical stimuli that ... -

Do ventricular repolarization interval ratios depend on heart rate and should they be rate-corrected?
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2003-09)
Conference report
Open AccessQT interval decreases with increasing heart rate (HR), hence to define normal values of QT interval for different heart rates requires the application of a QT interval rate correction formula. However, the influence of HR ... -
