Research into cardiac autonomic control has received great interest in the past 20 years,
and we are now at a critical juncture with regard to the clinical translation of the experimental …

Dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system has been implicated in the pathogenesis of
cardiovascular disease, including congestive heart failure and cardiac arrhythmias. Despite …

The cardiac autonomic nervous system (CANS) plays a key role for the regulation of cardiac
activity with its dysregulation being involved in various heart diseases, such as cardiac …

Objectives: The study sought to characterize the efficacy of stellate ganglion block (SGB) as
a treatment for electrical storm (ES). Background: The efficacy of percutaneous SGB for …

reflects a dynamic interaction between afferent mediated decreases in central …

The cardiac autonomic nervous system (ANS) plays an integral role in normal cardiac
physiology as well as in disease states that cause cardiac arrhythmias. The cardiac ANS …

The autonomic nervous system (ANS) is complex and plays an important role in cardiac
arrhythmia pathogenesis. A deeper understanding of the anatomy and development of the …

Autonomic nerves are attractive targets for medical therapies using electroceutical devices
because of the potential for selective control and few side effects. These devices use novel …
