Carvedilol Decreases Elevated Oxidative Stress in Human Failing Myocardium
Kazufumi Nakamura,Kengo Fukushima Kusano,Yoichi Nakamura,Mikio Kakishita,Keiko Ohta,Satoshi Nagase,Mika Yamamoto,Katsumasa Miyaji,Hironori Saito,Hiroshi Morita,Tetsuro Emori,Hiromi Matsubara,Shinya Toyokuni,Tohru Ohe +13 more
TL;DR: Oxidative stress is elevated in myocardia of patients with heart failure and administration of carvedilol resulted in a decrease in the oxidative stress level together with amelioration of cardiac function.
Journal ArticleDOI
Atrial fibrillation and atrial vulnerability in patients with Brugada syndrome
Hiroshi Morita,Kengo Kusano-Fukushima,Satoshi Nagase,Yoshihisa Fujimoto,Kenichi Hisamatsu,Hideki Fujio,Kayo Haraoka,Makoto Kobayashi,Shiho Takenaka Morita,Kazufumi Nakamura,Tetsuro Emori,Hiromi Matsubara,Kazumasa Hina,Toshimasa Kita,Masahiko Fukatani,Tohru Ohe +15 more
TL;DR: Atrial vulnerability is increased in patients with Brugada syndrome, and abnormal atrial conduction may be an electrophysiologic basis for induction of AF in patientswith BrugADA syndrome.
Journal ArticleDOI
Epicardial electrogram of the right ventricular outflow tract in patients with the Brugada syndrome: using the epicardial lead.
Satoshi Nagase,Kengo Kusano,Hiroshi Morita,Yoshihisa Fujimoto,Mikio Kakishita,Kazufumi Nakamura,Tetsuro Emori,Hiromi Matsubara,Tohru Ohe +8 more
TL;DR: Local electrograms may be related to a myocardial abnormality in the epicardium of patients with the Brugada syndrome and can be recorded from the conus branch of the right coronary artery.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ventricular arrhythmia induced by sodium channel blocker in patients with Brugada syndrome
Hiroshi Morita,Shiho Takenaka Morita,Satoshi Nagase,Kimikazu Banba,Nobuhiro Nishii,Yoshinori Tani,Atsuyuki Watanabe,Kazufumi Nakamura,Kengo Kusano,Tetsuro Emori,Hiromi Matsubara,Kazumasa Hina,Toshimasa Kita,Tohru Ohe +13 more
TL;DR: Administration of a sodium channel blocker results in induction of not only ST-elevation but also VA and TWA in patients with BS.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sympathetic stimulation produces a greater increase in both transmural and spatial dispersion of repolarization in LQT1 than LQT2 forms of congenital long QT syndrome.
Yasuko Tanabe,Masashi Inagaki,Takashi Kurita,Noritoshi Nagaya,Atsushi Taguchi,Kazuhiro Suyama,Naohiko Aihara,Shiro Kamakura,Kenji Sunagawa,Kazufumi Nakamura,Tohru Ohe,Jeffrey A. Towbin,Silvia G. Priori,Wataru Shimizu +13 more
TL;DR: The data suggest that sympathetic stimulation produces a greater increase in both transmural and spatial dispersion of repolarization in L QT1 than in LQT2 syndrome, and this may explain why LQt1 patients are more sensitive to sympathetic stimulation.
