Extracardiac factors of heart rate variability have commonly been investigated using linear and nonlinear methods for a long time. Recently, intracardiac mechanisms on an electrophysiological basis have been found to be also important. This work is focused on the evaluation of complex measures of temporal signals gained with microelectrode measurements of embryonic chick heart aggregates. Septic conditions were mimicked in vitro by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) administration in order to investigate the influence on beat to beat variability. Surrogate data analysis revealed high statistical significances for normalized complexity measures.

Certain interoceptive hunger cues are caused by gut physiology. These interoceptive cues may have psychological consequences, namely an ability to enhance the desire to eat, which are independent of their physiological cause. Testing this idea is difficult because the physiological processes are normally linked to any consequence.

Deep Neural Network Analysis of the 12-Lead Electrocardiogram Distinguishes Patients With Congenital Long QT Syndrome From Patients With Acquired QT Prolongation.

Mayo Clin Proc

January 2025

Division of Pediatric Cardiology, Department of Pediatric and Adolescent Medicine, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN; Department of Molecular Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics, Windland Smith Rice Sudden Death Genomics Laboratory, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN; Division of Heart Rhythm Services, Department of Cardiovascular Medicine, Windland Smith Rice Genetic Heart Rhythm Clinic, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN. Electronic address:

Objective: To test whether an artificial intelligence (AI) deep neural network (DNN)-derived analysis of the 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) can distinguish patients with long QT syndrome (LQTS) from those with acquired QT prolongation.

Methods: The study cohort included all patients with genetically confirmed LQTS evaluated in the Windland Smith Rice Genetic Heart Rhythm Clinic and controls from Mayo Clinic's ECG data vault comprising more than 2.5 million patients.

The connections between sarcopenia and various chronic conditions, including type 2 diabetes (T2DM), metabolic syndrome (MetS), and liver disease have been highlighted recently. There is also a high occurrence of sarcopenia in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) patients, who are often disregarded. Both experimental and clinical findings suggest a complex, bidirectional relationship between MASLD and sarcopenia.

A Probabilistic Modeling Framework for the Prediction of Spontaneous Premature Beats and Reentry Initiation.

Heart Rhythm

January 2025

Office of Science and Engineering Laboratories, Center for Devices and Radiological Health, Food and Drug Administration, Silver Spring, MD, USA. Electronic address:

Background: Spontaneously occurring life threatening reentrant arrhythmias result when a propagating premature beat encounters a region with significant dispersion of refractoriness. Although localized structural tissue heterogeneities and prescribed cell functional gradients have been incorporated into computational electrophysiological models, a quantitative framework for the evolution from normal to abnormal behavior that occurs via disease is lacking.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to develop a probabilistic modeling framework that represents the complex interplay of cell function and tissue structure in health and disease which predicts the emergence of premature beats and the initiation of reentry.
