Background The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that acute myocardial ischaemia
increases QT dispersion measured from the 12-lead electrocardiogram. Methods …

The mineralization of cellulosic and proteinaceous fibres has been simulated using
oxygenated aqueous solutions. In addition to chemical analysis of the fibres and the …

Remnant dye on an excavated textile has been identified using a Fourier transform infrared
microscope on a scale far below that which is possible by extractive techniques. The sample …

Objectives Cardiovascular disease is one of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity in
women. Despite this, even in contemporary research, female patients are poorly …

BACKGROUND Beat-to-beat variations in the pulse during atrial fibrillation (AF) have
conventionally been attributed to time-dependent changes in filling. We have explored the …

Discussion Acute hepatitis following intravenous amio-darone has previously been
reported,'-4 with the implication that further amiodarone therapy should be withheld. 1-3 …

Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained arrhythmia in patients with
acute heart failure (AHF). The presence of AF is associated with adverse prognosis in …

The mineralization of cellulose and protein fibers has been simulated in the laboratory using
oxygenated aqueous solutions. The mechanism peculiar to a given solution has been …

When the interval between cardiac contractions varies, either on a beat by beat basis such
as before an extrasystole or during atrial fibrillation, or in the sustained fashion which can …

Breast cancer (BC) is the most common cancer in women worldwide. Although it is more
common in older women, it is increasingly being diagnosed in premenopausal women. 1 …
