Cardiac conduction system regeneration prevents arrhythmias after myocardial infarction.

Arrhythmias are a hallmark of myocardial infarction (MI) and increase patient mortality. How insult to the cardiac conduction system causes arrhythmias following MI is poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate conduction system restoration during neonatal mouse heart regeneration versus pathological remodeling at non-regenerative stages.

Out of sight, into mind: a socioecological model-informed qualitative study on barriers and facilitators to hepatitis B care among West African immigrants in the Bronx, New York.

Background: There is a high burden of hepatitis B virus (HBV) in West Africa. Over the past 20 years, West African immigration to the United States (U.S.

The challenges of integrating an immigrant population with chronic hepatitis B into long-term hepatology care: Lessons learned from a Bronx West African screening program.

Objectives: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is endemic in West Africa. Because of immigration to the United States, screening and transition to long-term care is a significant public health concern. We describe the challenges of integrating individuals identified in a screening program into long-term care and the spectrum of disease severity.

Screening for hepatitis B in the Bronx West African community with a blood pressure cuff: a cohort study.

Background: Hepatitis B (HBV) and hypertension (HTN) are prevalent in West Africa (WA). Inadequate control is common, and evaluation and management are challenging among immigrants due to unfamiliarity with the United States (US) healthcare system. While HBV is stigmatised, HTN is recognised as an important condition.
