Aims Atrioventricular block (AVB) of unknown aetiology is rare in the young, and outcome in
these patients is unknown. We aimed to assess long-term morbidity and mortality in young …

Introduction The cardiac conduction system (CCS) is crucial for maintaining adequate
cardiac frequency at rest and modulation during exercise. Furthermore, the atrioventricular …

Reflex atrioventricular block is well-recorded although it is considered rare. Recent data
suggests that it is less rare than has been supposed. It has been shown to occur in both …

Background In∼ 50% of severe atrioventricular blocks (AVBs) occurring in adults< 50 years,
the underlying etiology remains unknown. Preliminary evidence from case reports suggests …

Infections with Borrelia may cause cardiac conduction system abnormalities, including
atrioventricular blocks (AVBs). Therefore, we aimed to identify patients in whom Lyme …

In several adults with atrioventricular blocks (AVBs) requiring pacemaker implantation the
underlying cause remains undetermined. 1 Autoimmune cardiac channelopathies are …

OBJECTIVES Elective treatment of aortic valve disease by transcatheter aortic valve
replacement (TAVR) is becoming increasingly popular, even in patients with low risk and …

Aims To investigate the role of genetic testing in patients with idiopathic atrioventricular
conduction disease requiring pacemaker (PM) implantation before the age of 50 years …

Purpose To evaluate the preventive cardioprotective effects of resveratrol and grape
products, such as grape juice and red wine, in animal model of cardiac ischemia and …

Background: Safe discontinuation of pacemaker therapy for vagally mediated bradycardia is
a dilemma. The aim of the study was to present the outcomes of a proposed diagnostic and …
