Journal ArticleDOI
Left ventricular dysfunction after long-term right ventricular apical pacing in the young.
TL;DR: In the presence of impaired LV function with long-term RV apical pacing, alternative sites of ventricular pacing that simulate normal biventricular electrical activation should be explored to preserve function in pediatric patients in need of long- term pacing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antioxidative activity of chitosans with varying molecular weights
Kyung W. Kim,Ronald Thomas +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the antioxidant activity of chitosans of different molecular weights (30, 90 and 120 kDa) in salmon (Salmo salar ) for seven days of storage.
Journal ArticleDOI
DNA damage is an early event in doxorubicin-induced cardiac myocyte death
Thomas J. L'Ecuyer,Sanjeev Sanjeev,Ronald Thomas,Raymond F. Novak,Lauri Das,Wendy L Campbell,Richard S. Vander Heide +6 more
TL;DR: DNA damage appears to play an important early role in anthracycline-induced lethal cardiac myocyte injury through a pathway involving p53 and the mitochondria.
Journal ArticleDOI
Increased survival and function of SOD1 mice after Glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor gene therapy
Gyula Acsadi,Roumen Anguelov,Huibin Yang,Gábor Tóth,Ronald Thomas,Agnes Jani,Yuying Wang,Emilia Ianakova,Sulaiman Mohammad,Richard A. Lewis,Michael E. Shy +10 more
TL;DR: It is shown that AVR-mediated GDNF expression delayed the onset of disease by 7 +/- 8 days, prolonged survival by 17 +/- 10 days, and delayed the decline in motor functions (as determined on a rotating rod) by 7-14 days.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prediction of Cardiovascular Death in Men Undergoing Noninvasive Evaluation for Coronary Artery Disease
Kiernan Morrow,Charles K. Morris,Victor F. Froelicher,Alisa Hideg,Dodie Hunter,Eileen Johnson,Takeo Kawaguchi,Kenneth G. Lehmann,Paul M. Ribisl,Ronald Thomas,Kenji Ueshima,Erika Sivarajan Froelicher,James Wallis +12 more
TL;DR: The two main findings were that the results of coronary angiography and exercise-induced ST depression were not independently associated with cardiovascular death or infarct-free survival and the use of this larger cohort allowed assessment of work-up bias.
