Journal ArticleDOI

Nitric oxide control of cardiac function: is neuronal nitric oxide synthase a key component?

TL;DR: A key role for nNOS is shown in the control of basal and adrenergically stimulated cardiac contractility and in the autonomic control of heart rate, whether or not the role of nN OS carries implications for cardiovascular disease remains an intriguing possibility requiring future study.
Journal ArticleDOI

European Society of Cardiology smartphone and tablet applications for patients with atrial fibrillation and their health care providers

TL;DR: The objective is to demonstrate the value of integrating novel digital technology into clinical practice, with the potential for patient engagement, optimization of pharmacological and interventional therapy in AF, and ultimately to improve patient outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nitric-oxide-mediated regulation of cardiac contractility and stretch responses.

TL;DR: The role of myocardial NO production in regulating cardiac function appears to be more complex and controversial as mentioned in this paper, and some studies have shown that non-isoform-specific inhibition of NO synthesis with l -arginine analogues has no effect on basal contraction in LV myocytes.
Journal Article

Nitric oxide-mediated regulation of cardiac contractility and stretch responses

TL;DR: The findings suggest that NO can mediate diverse and even contrasting actions within the myocardium, a notion that is difficult to reconcile with the early description of NO as a highly reactive and diffusible molecule possessing minimal specificity in its interactions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Targeting Inflammation and Oxidative Stress in Atrial Fibrillation: Role of 3-Hydroxy-3-Methylglutaryl-Coenzyme A Reductase Inhibition with Statins

TL;DR: Evidence indicates that statins prevent AF-induced electrical remodeling in animal models of atrial tachypacing and may reduce the new onset of AF after cardiac surgery.
