An electrocardiogram (EKG) is a test that measures the electrical activity of the heart and records it as line tracings on paper. It is used to check for issues like abnormal heart rhythms, damage to the heart muscle from a heart attack, and how well medications are working. During an EKG, electrodes are attached to the skin of the arms, legs, and chest to detect the heart's electrical signals and translate them into wave patterns. The test takes about 5-10 minutes and is painless, with no risks involved other than minor discomfort from electrode attachment. Abnormal results can provide information about issues like irregular heartbeats.

It provides details on cardiac physiology including the conductive system, properties of excitability, conductivity and automaticity. The cardiac conductive system is described including the intrinsic firing rates of the sinoatrial node, atrioventricular node and Purkinje system. Electrocardiographic monitoring is summarized including how ECGs work and what they can detect. Normal sinus rhythm and common dysrhythmias originating from different areas of the heart are also outlined.
Fundamentals of Electrocardiography
The property of automaticity of the sinus node is responsible foe the impulse initiation and travels along the cardiac tissue as depolarizations which result in its contraction. So, when activated, the heart is a concentrated locus of time varying potentials in the body. These voltage fluctuations can be measured by the placement of electrodes on the surface of the body. This forms the basis of electrocardiography. In this presentation we will see the basics, the lead systems and the principles behind recording of ECG.
Normal ecg interpretation
The document provides information on normal ECG interpretation, including what an ECG measures, how it is recorded, the major waves and intervals of a normal ECG, and how to analyze ECGs. It describes the P wave, QRS complex, T wave, and other normal ECG components. It also outlines the normal rates, intervals, axes, and wave progression seen on ECG.
4.ecg
This document provides an overview of electrocardiograms (ECGs). It discusses the conduction system of the heart and electrophysiology. It then covers the basics of ECGs, including definitions, electrodes, leads, and waves/intervals. It explains how to interpret and analyze ECG papers by examining rate, rhythm, axis, P wave, PR interval, QRS complex, ST segment, T wave, and QT interval. Finally, it lists some common abnormalities that can be identified, such as issues with rate, rhythm, axis, conduction, and signs of ischemia.
2020.06.05 ECG basics
The document provides an overview of electrocardiograms (ECGs), including their history, utility, technical aspects, waveform genesis, intervals and segments. An ECG records the heart's electrical activity via electrodes on the body surface. It has evolved since its invention in the late 19th century and remains a fundamental cardiac diagnostic tool, providing information on conditions like arrhythmias and ischemia. Proper interpretation requires considering the clinical context along with various waveform features and intervals seen on the ECG.

Local Advanced Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex Sys...
Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).
Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.
Role of Mukta Pishti in the Management of Hyperthyroidism
Muktapishti is a traditional Ayurvedic preparation made from Shoditha Mukta (Purified Pearl), is believed to help regulate thyroid function and reduce symptoms of hyperthyroidism due to its cooling and balancing properties. Clinical evidence on its efficacy remains limited, necessitating further research to validate its therapeutic benefits.
