Afferent and efferent cardiac neurotransmission via the cardiac nerves intricately modulates
nearly all physiological functions of the heart (chronotropy, dromotropy, lusitropy, and …

Research into cardiac autonomic control has received great interest in the past 20 years,
and we are now at a critical juncture with regard to the clinical translation of the experimental …

Dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system has been implicated in the pathogenesis of
cardiovascular disease, including congestive heart failure and cardiac arrhythmias. Despite …

A complex interaction exists between the nervous and cardiovascular systems. A large
network of cortical and subcortical brain regions control cardiovascular function via the …

Patients with cardiovascular disease show autonomic dysfunction, including sympathetic
activation and vagal withdrawal, which leads to fatal events. This review aims to place …

Objectives: The study sought to characterize the efficacy of stellate ganglion block (SGB) as
a treatment for electrical storm (ES). Background: The efficacy of percutaneous SGB for …

Neuronal elements distributed throughout the cardiac nervous system, from the level of the
insular cortex to the intrinsic cardiac nervous system, are in constant communication with …

Objectives: The study objectives were to create a cardiac metaiodobenzylguanidine (m IBG)
database using multiple prospective cohort studies and to determine the quantitative iodine …

Key points The evoked cardiac response to bipolar cervical vagus nerve stimulation (VNS)
reflects a dynamic interaction between afferent mediated decreases in central …

Key points Intrinsic cardiac (IC) neurons undergo differential morphological and phenotypic
remodelling that reflects the site of myocardial infarction (MI). Afferent neural signals from the …
