Article Synopsis
  • Biotechnological syndromes are health issues that arise from the combination of human biology and digital technology, manifesting through device malfunctions and cyber abuse.
  • A study was conducted using clinical simulations to assess how well physicians can respond to these syndromes, identify gaps in their training, and recognize real-world cases stemming from digital tech.
  • Results showed that participants cited various issues in their practices, such as device malfunctions and inadequate training, highlighting significant barriers to effectively diagnosing and treating technology-related health problems.

Runaway pacemaker.

BMJ Case Rep

March 2019

Department of Cardiology, Southend University Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, Westcliff-on-Sea, UK.

Runaway pacemaker is phenomenon in which pacemaker induces ventricular tachycardia as a result of some malfunction in the device. This entity is not very common in clinical practice. Normally, the pacemaker perceives the inherent cardiac impulse and hence averting the delivery of pacemaker stimulus in susceptible period of cardiac cycle.

Survival analysis in biology and reliability theory in engineering concern the dynamical functioning of bio/electro/mechanical units. Here we incorporate effects of chaotic dynamics into the classical theory. Dynamical systems theory now distinguishes strong and weak chaos.

Calcium (Ca1 and Ca2) and sodium channels possess homologous CaM-binding motifs, known as IQ motifs in their C termini, which associate with calmodulin (CaM), a universal calcium sensor. Ca3 T-type channels, which serve as pacemakers of the mammalian brain and heart, lack a C-terminal IQ motif. We illustrate that T-type channels associate with CaM using co-immunoprecipitation experiments and single particle cryo-electron microscopy.
