Cardiac Pacing and Electrophysiology
In 1992, clinical cardiac electrophysiology became a recognized sub-speciality of the American Board of Internal Medicine. The formal recognition of this highly specialized and technical field of medicine represents the culmination of thirty years of remarkable scientific and intellectual discovery. Beginning in the 1950s, cardiologists realized that cardiac arrhythmias were the cause of significant morbidity and the sudden death of at least 350,000 patients every year in the United States alone. At that time the only tools available for analyzing abnormal heart rhythms were the standard EKG machine and careful deductive reasoning. During the early 1960s, cardiac pacemakers reflected the fir...
Heart Rate Variability: Clinical Applications and Interaction between HRV and Heart Rate
Over the last decades, assessment of heart rate variability (HRV) has increased in various fields of research. HRV describes changes in heartbeat intervals, which are caused by autonomic neural regulation, i.e. by the interplay of the sympathetic and the parasympathetic nervous systems. The most frequent application of HRV is connected to cardiological issues, most importantly to the monitoring of post-myocardial infarction patients and the prediction of sudden cardiac death. Analysis of HRV is also frequently applied in relation to diabetes, renal failure, neurological and psychiatric conditions, sleep disorders, psychological phenomena such as stress, as well as drug and addiction research...
Primer on the Autonomic Nervous System
Ppresents, in a readable and accessible format, key information about how the autonomic nervous system controls the body, particularly in response to stress. Especially suitable for students, scientists and physicians seeking key information about all aspects of autonomic physiology and pathology in one convenient source, this bood provides up-to-date knowledge about basic and clinical autonomic neuroscience in a format designed to make learning easy

Dynamic Electrocardiography
Two well-known and respected editors have assembled an outstanding group of electrophysiologists/physicians to write a major work representing the field of electrocardiography as we know it today. This book contains all the major subject areas within the field of electrocardiography with significant clinical and basic content to appeal to the entire electrophysiology community in addition to educating cardiologists with the latest information. The fact that Drs. Malik and Camm have edited this work assures a volume of incredible quality and readability.
The Biology of Senescence
This book describes the fundamental process of senescence, and reviews a new concept developed by a number of research groups that is based on cellular senescence and its secretome. This concept provides a basic explanation of the main physiological and pathological features of senescence, and delineates possibilities for “treating” it. Following an introduction to the emerging medical landscape, the increasing incidence of a new epidemiological group (age-related “chronic non-transmissible diseases”), and the multiple origins of aging, the book explores and characterizes the senescent cell, which is linked to benign and pathological age-related manifestations. In turn, the closing chapters discuss how to “treat” or “prevent” the aging process, underscoring the central role of physical exercise and caloric reduction as compared to new senolytic approaches. Appendices are also provided, and address circadian rhythms, telomere shortening, diabetic cardiomyopathy, and senescence in plants and bacteria. Given its scope, the book will primarily be of interest to geriatricians, but will also appeal to a wider range of clinicians.
Cardiogenic Reflexes
The result of an international symposium attended by leading cardiologists and physiologists, this authoritative account reflects current views and recent research in the study of receptors in the atria and ventricles of the mammalian heart. The first two sections consider reflexes from the atria and ventricles with emphasis on reflex effects of the heart and vasculature; section three covers the role of such reflexes in the control of fluid and electrolyte balance by the kidney. Also considered is the possible role of cardiogenic reflexes in disease states such as hypertension, heart failure, and hemorrhage. Specialists in cardiovascular physiology will turn to this informative volume for an array of new perspectives and discoveries in the field.
