Congenital heart problems e.g. pulmonary artery stenosis (common), Tetralogy of Fallot, overriding aorta, ventricular septal defect; and right ventricular hypertrophy. Liver (jaundice, pruritus, hepatosplenomegaly, acholia, xanthoma) Andersen–Tawil syndrome: This condition affects the QT interval (in blue) Antley–Bixler syndrome: Barth syndrome
Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is a condition characterized by an abnormally large increase in heart rate upon sitting up or standing. [1] POTS is a disorder of the autonomic nervous system that can lead to a variety of symptoms, [10] including lightheadedness, brain fog, blurred vision, weakness, fatigue, headaches, heart palpitations, exercise intolerance, nausea ...
Most of the current information pertaining to HCM arises from studies in adult populations, and the implication of these observations for pediatric population is often uncertain. [66] Nonetheless, recent studies in pediatric cardiology have revealed that HCM accounts for 42% of childhood cardiomyopathies, with an annual incidence rate of 0.47 ...
To keep up your current level of cardiovascular fitness, the CDC's recommendation of 150 minutes of moderate-intensity cardio or 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity cardio weekly can work.
Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is an uncommon but potentially lethal condition in which one of the coronary arteries that supply the heart, spontaneously develops a blood collection, or hematoma, within the artery wall due to a tear in the wall.
The forward problem of electrocardiology is a computational and mathematical approach to study the electrical activity of the heart through the body surface. [1] The principal aim of this study is to computationally reproduce an electrocardiogram (ECG), which has important clinical relevance to define cardiac pathologies such as ischemia and ...
Coronary artery disease is characterized by heart problems that result from atherosclerosis. [34] Atherosclerosis is a type of arteriosclerosis which is the "chronic inflammation of the arteries which causes them to harden and accumulate cholesterol plaques (atheromatous plaques) on the artery walls".

The neurocardiac axis is the link to many problems regarding the physiological functions of the body. This includes cardiac ischemia, stroke, epilepsy, heart arrhythmias and cardiac myopathies. Many of these problems are due to the imbalance of the nervous system, resulting in symptoms that affect both the heart and the brain.
