Altered Na+Currents in Atrial Fibrillation: Effects of Ranolazine on Arrhythmias and Contractility in Human Atrial Myocardium

TL;DR: Investigating changes in Na(+) currents in permanent (or chronic) atrial fibrillation and the effects of I(Na) inhibition using ranolazine (Ran) on arrhythmias and contractility in human atrial myocardium found antiarrhythmic effects and improved diastolic function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Minimally-invasive valve surgery.

TL;DR: The existing literature is reviewed and the current state-of-the-art of minimally-invasive valve operations is presented in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cell type-specific expression of the putative SARS-CoV-2 receptor ACE2 in human hearts.

TL;DR: This poster presents a poster presented at the 2016 European Conference on Cardiovascular Regeneration and Cardiopulmonary Institute (ECAS) at the University of Heidelberg, Germany, on the topic of regenerative medicine and cardiothoracic surgery.

Inhibition of Elevated Ca2+/Calmodulin-Dependent Protein Kinase II Improves Contractility in Human Failing Myocardium

TL;DR: CaMKII inhibition acutely improves contractility in human HF where CaMKII&dgr; expression is increased, and appears to be a possible therapeutic option for patients with HF and merits further investigation.
