Lethal ventricular tachycardia triggered after femoral fracture repair in an obese man with insulin-resistant diabetes.

Only registered users can translate articles

An obese man (height, 178 cm; weight, 160 kg; body mass index, 50.5 kg/m2) with a history of recurrent ventricular tachycardia (VT), cardiomyopathy, coronary sclerosis, and insulin-resistant diabetes suffered a right femur fracture in a vehicular accident. His fracture was repaired the following

[A case of idiopathic ventricular tachycardia in a 14-year-old obese patient due to golden berry fruit extract pills for weight loss].

Only registered users can translate articles

Several studies have determined an association between obesity and increased risk of cardiac arrhythmia. Currently, due to the increased frequency of obesity, food-, plant-, and drug-based therapies for weight loss have gained great attention. A 14-year-old female patient presented with complaints

Obesity as a risk factor for sustained ventricular tachyarrhythmias in MADIT II patients.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Obesity, as defined by body mass index > or =30 kg/m(2), has been shown to be a risk factor for cardiovascular disease. However, data on the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and the risk of ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death are limited. The aim of this study was

Effect of obesity on the effectiveness of cardiac resynchronization to reduce the risk of first and recurrent ventricular tachyarrhythmia events.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Obesity is associated with multiple adverse cardiovascular conditions and may increase the risk of ventricular tachyarrhythmias (VT/VF). There is limited data on the association between obesity and risk of VT/VF requiring appropriate implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) therapies

Surrogate measures of physical activity and physical fitness. Evidence for sedentary traits of resting tachycardia, obesity, and low vital capacity.

Only registered users can translate articles

Studies on physical activity, physical fitness, and health have been hampered because of invalid, unreliable, or impractical measures of physical activity. This report examines the validity of sedentary traits (resting tachycardia, obesity, and low vital capacity) as predictors of physical fitness

Onset of decreased heart work is correlated with increased heart rate and shortened QT interval in high-carbohydrate fed overweight rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

Mechanical activity of the heart is adversely affected in metabolic syndrome (MetS) characterized by increased body mass and marked insulin resistance. Herein, we examined the effects of high carbohydrate intake on cardiac function abnormalities by evaluating in situ heart work, heart rate, and

Sympathetic activation is associated with increased IL-6, but not CRP in the absence of obesity: lessons from postural tachycardia syndrome and obesity.

Only registered users can translate articles

Sympathetic activation is thought to contribute to the inflammatory process associated with obesity, which is characterized by elevated circulating C-reactive protein (hsCRP) and interleukin-6 (IL-6). To evaluate whether sympathetic activation is associated with inflammation in the absence of

Non-paroxysmal arterioventricular junctional tachycardia during postprandial hypoglycaemia in an obese non-diabetic patient.

Only registered users can translate articles

We have observed the simultaneous occurrence of postprandial hypoglycaemia and a rare cardiac arrhythmia: non-paroxysmal arteriovenous junctional tachycardia (NPJT) in a patient with suspected coronary heart disease (CHD) submitted to oral glucose tolerance testing (OGTT). To our knowledge the

Influence of BMI on inducible ventricular tachycardia and mortality in patients with myocardial infarction and left ventricular dysfunction: The obesity paradox.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND There is little known about the influence of obesity on ventricular electrical remodelling after myocardial infarction. The aim of our study was to assess the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and the primary outcome of inducible-VT and the secondary outcome of all-cause

A 38-Year-Old Man With Obesity, Intermittent Tachycardia, and One Episode of Syncope.

Only registered users can translate articles

A 38-year-old man with history of diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and obesity was referred to the electrophysiology clinic for evaluation of infrequent palpitations and remote history of syncope. The patient described a sensation of racing of the heart, which lasted about 30 min to 1 h and

Outcomes With Novel Oral Anticoagulants in Obese Patients who Underwent Electrical Cardioversion for Atrial Tachyarrhythmias.

Only registered users can translate articles

The efficacy of novel oral anticoagulants (NOACs) in severely obese patients is uncertain as volume of distribution is related to weight, and few such patients were enrolled in the pivotal trials. As the month after direct-current cardioversion (DCCV) for atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter is a

Autonomic function in sleep apnea patients: increased heart rate variability except during REM sleep in obese patients.

Only registered users can translate articles

The objective of this study was to examine heart rate variability (HRV) among sleep stages in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients. The study was retrospective within subjects and examined the sleep stages and HRV in relation to OSA, age, body mass index (BMI), and sex. Data collected during
