Selective site pacing: defining and reaching the selected siteRandy Lieberman
Division of Cardiology and Electrophysiology, Harper Hospital, Detroit, Michigan, USA
Pacing Clin Electrophysiol 27:883-6. 2004..This lack of definition consensus may have contributed to the apparent conflict of data, particularly in the right ventricle.

Department of Cardiovascular Medicine, University of Birmingham, Birmingham
Circulation 99:1587-92. 1999..However, few data demonstrate its superiority over continued medical therapy. The influence of pacing mode and mode-switch algorithm has not been investigated... - Investigation of low density lipoprotein subfractions as a coronary risk factor in normotriglyceridaemic menI Rajman
Department of Medicine, Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham, UK
Atherosclerosis 125:231-42. 1996..LDL score was significantly correlated with CAD, even after adjusting for triglyceride and HDL cholesterol concentrations and it was the best discriminant factor for the presence of CAD... - Thyroid disease and its treatment: short-term and long-term cardiovascular consequencesF Osman
Department of Cardiology, Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Birmingham, UK
Curr Opin Pharmacol 1:626-31. 2001..Increasing evidence suggests that long-term vascular morbidity and mortality occurs in both overt and subclinical thyroid disease... - Ablate and pace revisited: long term survival and predictors of permanent atrial fibrillationA Queiroga
The University of Birmingham, Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Edgbaston, Birmingham, UK
Heart 89:1035-8. 2003..These results support the use of dual chamber pacing for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation patients after ablate and pace... - Indications and nonindications for ablation of atrioventricular conduction in the elderly: is it sensible to destroy normal tissue?Howard J Marshall
University Hospital Birmingham, Birmingham B15 2TH, United Kingdom
Am J Geriatr Cardiol 11:365-9. 2002..In conclusion, ablation and pacing offers symptomatic and functional benefit to patients with drug-refractory atrial fibrillation. Timing of the intervention relates to response to other pharmacologic therapy... - Treatment of amiodarone-associated thyrotoxicosisJayne A Franklyn

J Clin Endocrinol Metab 91:4809-16. 2006..Population-based screening has been advocated for subclinical thyroid dysfunction in the elderly because the disorder is perceived to be common, and health benefits may be accrued by detection and treatment... - Heart rate variability and turbulence in hyperthyroidism before, during, and after treatmentFaizel Osman
