  3. Split S2 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Split_S2

    Wiggers diagram of various events of a cardiac cycle, with 2nd heart sound at bottom. A split S2 is a finding upon auscultation of the S2 heart sound. [1] It is caused when the closure of the aortic valve (A 2) and the closure of the pulmonary valve (P 2) are not synchronized during inspiration. The second heart sound (S2) is caused by the ...

  4. Primary somatosensory cortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primary_somatosensory_cortex

    Brodmann areas 3, 1, and 2 make up the primary somatosensory cortex of the human brain (or S1). [2] Because Brodmann sliced the brain somewhat obliquely, he encountered area 1 first; however, from anterior to posterior , the Brodmann designations are 3, 1, and 2, respectively.

  5. Intercalated disc - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intercalated_disc

    Mutations in the intercalated disc gene are responsible for various cardiomyopathies that can lead to heart failure. [2] Ruptured intercalated discs, in this case regarded as a visual artifact. Ruptured intercalated discs, when seen on histopathology, have two main causes: Microtome sectioning, thereby being a visual artifact. [4]

  6. Systolic heart murmur - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systolic_heart_murmur

    They occur at the start of blood ejection — which starts after S1 — and ends with the cessation of the blood flow — which is before S2. Therefore, the onset of a midsystolic ejection murmur is separated from S1 by the isovolumic contraction phase; the cessation of the murmur and the S2 interval is the aortic or pulmonary hangout time. The ...

  7. Secondary somatosensory cortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secondary_somatosensory_cortex

    S2 is colored green and the insular cortex brown in the top right image (coronal section) of the human brain. S1 is green in the top left, and the supplementary somatosensory area is green in the bottom left. The human secondary somatosensory cortex (S2, SII) is a region of sensory cortex in the parietal operculum on the ceiling of the lateral ...

  8. Heart sounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart_sounds

    The third heart sound, or S 3 is rarely heard, and is also called a protodiastolic gallop, ventricular gallop, or informally the "Kentucky" gallop as an onomatopoeic reference to the rhythm and stress of S1 followed by S2 and S3 together (S1=Ken; S2=tuck; S3=y). [2] "lub-dub-ta" or "slosh-ing-in" If new, indicates heart failure or volume overload.

  9. Gallop rhythm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gallop_rhythm

    The normal heart rhythm contains two audible heart sounds called S 1 and S 2 that give the well-known "lub-dub" rhythm; they are caused by the closing of valves in the heart. The first heart sound (S1) is closure of the valve at the end of ventricular filling (the tricuspid and mitral valves); the second heart sound (S2), is closure of the ...
