A premature ventricular contraction (PVC) is a common event where the heartbeat is initiated by Purkinje fibers in the ventricles rather than by the sinoatrial node. PVCs may cause no symptoms or may be perceived as a "skipped beat" or felt as palpitations in the chest. PVCs do not usually pose any danger. [1]
The heart supplies blood carrying oxygen and nutrients to the brain, and the brain provides autonomic system control to the heart. In other words, the brain helps regulate heart rate, breathing ...
This is accomplished by the brain reflexively withdrawing the parasympathetic nerve signals and increasing the sympathetic nerve signals it sends to the heart. The compensatory constriction of the arteries and increased heart rate can cause blood pressure to overshoot normal values, triggering the opposite baroreflex. This time, the brain ...

The researchers also suggest that the plastic chemical exposure itself may lead to heart muscle damage, along with inflammation and oxidative stress, an imbalance of free radicals and antioxidants ...
Heart failure can be a complication of any condition that causes damage to your heart tissues, such as an infection, heart attack, or valve disorder. Heart failure is categorized by a measurement ...
Bradyarrhythmias are associated with complete atrioventricular blockage and sudden asystole. The underlying cause of sudden cardiac death is unclear, despite the understanding that heart disease causes arrhythmias, which in turn produce sudden cardiac death. [7] Lown describes the heart as the target, and the brain as the trigger.
They added that the rats showed damage regardless of how long the water they ingested had been boiled for: “The study shows plastic exposure as a significant [cardiovascular disease] CVD risk ...
