Ventricular fibrillation (VF) is maintained by 2 mechanisms: first by reentry formation and second by spontaneous wave break or wave splitting. We hypothesized that spontaneous wave break results from a critical shortening of the action potential duration (APD) during VF

DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) are responsible for DNA methylation, an epigenetic modification involved in gene regulation. Families of conjugates of procainamide, an inhibitor of DNMT1, were conceived and produced by rapid synthetic pathways. Six compounds resulted in potent inhibitors of the

The pharmaceuticals, procaine hydrochloride and procainamide hydrochloride, are glass-forming as well as ionically conducting materials. We have made dielectric measurements at ambient and elevated pressures to characterize the dynamics of the ion conductivity relaxation in these pharmaceuticals, and calorimetric measurements

Although recent-onset atrial fibrillation and flutter are common arrhythmias managed in the emergency department (ED), there is insufficient evidence to help physicians choose between 2 competing treatment strategies, rate control and rhythm control. We seek to evaluate variation in ED

Aromatic amine drugs like aminoglutethimide (AG) and related congeners have been shown to produce phenyl radicals through metabolism by myeloperoxidase (MPO)/H(2)O(2), which has been proposed to play a role in drug-induced agranulocytosis. AG has also been shown to induce MPO
