Medical Encyclopedia tach·y·car·di·a (tăk′ĭ-kär′dē-ə) n. A rapid heart rate, especially one above 100 beats per minute in an adult. [tachy-+ Greekkardiā,heart; seecardia.] tach′y·car′di·ac(-dē-ăk)adj.& n. ...
term SXSM stimulates sympathetic transmission by increasing the expression of acetylcholinesterase and reduces the expression of nicotinic receptor to increase heart rate. SXSM also restored the calcium handling genes and altered genes involved in signaling. In addition, SXSM improves the ATP supply ...
Short- and long-term effects of cigarette smoking on heart rate variability. Am J Cardiol. 1990;65(1):84-88.PubMedGoogle ScholarCrossref 12. Kleiger RE, Miller JP, Bigger JT Jr, Moss AJ. Decreased heart rate variability and its association with increased mortality after acute myocardial ...
The researchers found that, when adjusted for other factors, there were 1.9 additional heart attacks per 1,000 patients for Biaxin users than there were for patients given amoxicillin. No long-term increased risks were detected. However, the researchers also say they found a higher rate of non...
Whether the emotional distress around cancer diagnosis is associated with the long-term outcomes and care utilization is unknown. We aimed to examine the association of mental disorders around cancer diagnosis with the hospital admission rates of cancer patients thereafter. We conducted a nationwide coho...
(Figure 4).4 Specifically, private equity activities in the healthcare services sector set record highs in 2020-2022.5 The ongoing consolidation of physician groups is expected to compound the inflationary pressure on medical cost in the near term.6 In the long term, many consolidated physician ...
For determination of SNS modulation, non-invasive method of heart rate variability (HRV) is widely used. In our study, HRV was determined from 5-min heartbeat recordings in healthy volunteers and in women with benign or malignant breast neoplasias, both in newly diagnosed patients and in women...
Hyperleptinemia has been shown to be a stimulating factor for erythropoiesis, and that it reflects a better recom- binant human erythropoietin (EPO) response in long-term HD patients32,33. Thus serum leptin levels may be a predictor of EPO sensitivity. Anemia in CKD is a multifactorial ...
(T2D) later in life2. Observational studies indicated that IUGR could potentially increase the long-term risk for T2D by impairing insulin sensitivity and the first phase of insulin secretion3,4. Thus, the causal relationship between IUGR and programmed glucose intolerance has been extensively tested...
Fetal distress was defined as a non-reassuring fetal heart rate with cardiotocography, as assessed by the responsible obstetrician using the FIGO classification. The selection process is shown in Fig. 1 and the characteristics are shown in Table 1. This study was approved by the Medical Ethical...
