Elevated resting heart rate is associated with greater risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality. In a 2-stage meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies in up to 181,171 individuals, we ...

The "digital twins" helped doctors spot good targets for heart ablation in 10 patients. Months later, all of them are free of ...

Crew Apple Watch has been shown to be able to detect heart attacks and to identify cardiac arrhythmias in combination with machine learning. Such collaboration between the Apple Watch and the medical ...

Washington: Researchers discovered that an artificial intelligence (AI) system can detect an irregular cardiac rhythm in persons who do not yet have symptoms. The system, which discovered hidden ...

A type of abnormal heart rhythm caused by what is called long QT syndrome-- which is present in roughly one in every 2,500 newborns-- is also linked to stillbirths and sudden infant death syndrome.

A fundamental discovery reported in the March 1st issue of the journal Nature, uncovers the first molecular evidence linking the body's natural circadian rhythms to sudden cardiac death (SCD).

Steven Poelzing (left) and Gregory Hoeker, researchers at the Fralin Biomedical Research Institute at VTC, collaborated on a new study published in the journal Heart Rhythm revealing why low blood ...

Researchers have used the zebrafish (Danio rerio) to identify the role of a gene involved in cardiac rhythm, which could help explain the fundamentals of what it takes to make a human heartbeat.

The app uses Apple Watch's sensor to calculate heart rate and rhythm, and can notify users who might be experiencing atrial fibrillation. Abrar's interests include phones, streaming, autonomous ...

Researchers have identified a new gene responsible for a rare, inherited form of sudden cardiac arrest, known as Brugada syndrome. Using positional cloning and gene sequencing on an affected family, ...

New research uncovers the regulatory mechanisms of the SK2 channel in heart function, paving the way for potential therapies targeting atrial fibrillation. A recent study by researchers at the ...
