Article Abstract
Background: Cardiac intrinsic autonomic nerve remodelling has been reported to play an important role in the recurrence of atrial fibrillation after radiofrequency ablation, which significantly affects the long-term efficacy of this procedure. lncRNAs have been shown to interact in the pathological processes underlying heart diseases. However, the roles and mechanisms of lncRNAs in cardiac intrinsic autonomic nerve remodelling during atrial fibrillation reduction after ganglionated plexus ablation remain unknown.
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanism by which lncRNA- 056298 modulates GAP43 to affect cardiac intrinsic autonomic nerve remodelling and facilitate the induction of atrial fibrillation after ganglionated plexus ablation.
Methods: A canine model of right atrial ganglionated plexus ablation was established. The atrial electrophysiological characteristics and neural markers were detected before and after 6 months of ganglionated plexus ablation. High-throughput sequencing was used to screen differentially expressed lncRNAs in target atrial tissues, and lncRNA- 056298 was selected to further explore its effects and mechanisms on cardiac intrinsic autonomic nerve remodelling.
Results: The induction rate of atrial fibrillation increased in dogs after ganglionated plexus ablation. Overexpression of lncRNA-056298 by lentivirus can shorten the atrial effective refractory period and increase the induction of atrial fibrillation. lncRNA- 056298 promoted cardiac intrinsic autonomic nerve remodelling via endogenous competition with cfa-miR-185 to induce transcription of its target gene GAP43, thereby affecting the induction of atrial fibrillation.
Conclusion: lncRNA-056298 regulates GAP43 by sponging miR-185, which affects cardiac intrinsic autonomic nerve remodelling and mediates atrial fibrillation induction after ganglionated plexus ablation.

We report two cases of Elizabethkingia-related infective endocarditis, highlighting key risk factors such as prosthetic valve replacement. These cases underscore the need to consider endocarditis in the setting of persistent or recurrent bacteremia. Diagnosis proved challenging and required multiple imaging modalities, with positron emission tomography (PET) scan providing critical value when echocardiography was non-contributory.

Many Arctic fishes experience prolonged periods of extreme cold and large thermal variation over both rapid and seasonal time scales which challenge critical physiological functions. In the central Canadian Arctic, we caught wild adult lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) acclimatized to winter and summer temperatures to determine the extent to which they seasonally adjust cardiac thermal performance and adrenergic control. We assessed the intrinsic and maximum heart rate (f and f) of anaesthetised fish through cholinergic blockade and either adrenergic blockade (f) or stimulation (f) during acute warming.

Myocardial infarction (MI) is a leading cause of death worldwide and the most common precursor to heart failure, even after initial treatment. Precise evaluation of myocardial injury is crucial for assessing interventions and improving outcomes. Extensive evidence from both preclinical models and clinical studies demonstrates that the extent and severity of myocardial injury (i.

Background: Cardiac syncope due to sinus arrest may result from either a vasovagal cardioinhibitory mechanism or an intrinsic sinus node dysfunction.
Case Summary: A 67-year-old woman with a recently diagnosed right hilar mass presented with new-onset episodes of syncope associated with sinus arrest. Resting electrocardiogram was normal, and no electrolyte abnormalities were identified.

When genetically divergent and geographically isolated lineages come back into contact, their interactions allow us to observe reproductive isolating barriers in action. The avian contact zone between Pheucticus melanocephalus and P. ludovicianus in the North American Great Plains has been studied for more than 60 years, but never with the aid of genomic data.
