Article Synopsis
- Coronary artery disease (CAD) can lead to myocardial infarction (MI), which increases the risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD) and ventricular arrhythmias (VA).
- The study aimed to link specific genetic variations (SNPs) in genes related to heart arrhythmias with the likelihood of developing VA during an MI.
- Results indicated that two SNPs, specifically in the SCN5A and SCN10A genes, were significantly connected to a higher risk of VA in MI patients, which could potentially help in predicting and preventing SCD.
The sensitivity of two tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) cultivars, Rechaiga II and De Colgar, to 50, 80, and 100 ppb ozone (O3) exposures was assessed in fumigation chamber, during 4 h per day over a period of 7 days. The Rechaiga II variety was shown to be sensitive to the dose of 50 ppb, showing chlorotic spots on the adaxial leaf surface and alterations of some physiological parameters.
