Review Ecology

A taste for the familiar: explaining the paradox

Owen C. Dorsey, Gil G. Rosenthal

Summary: The negative consequences of inbreeding have led animal biologists to assume that mate choice is generally biased against relatives. However, inbreeding avoidance is highly variable and by no means the rule across animal taxa. Balancing inbreeding avoidance with conspecific mate preference may drive the evolution of multivariate sexual communication.

Braess Paradox under the bi-objective user equilibrium

Wenlong Zhu, Junting Zhang, Shunqiang Ye, Wanli Xiang

Summary: This paper investigates Braess Paradox under the bi-objective user equilibrium, introducing the definition and occurrence conditions of the paradox. Analytical properties of the bi-objective user equilibrium solutions and the conditions for the occurrence of Braess Paradox are explored on a classical Braess network. The study proves that the occurrence conditions of Braess Paradox are dependent upon link performance parameters and travel demand.

Brugada syndrome and arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy: overlapping disorders of the connexome?

Yael Ben-Haim, Angeliki Asimaki, Elijah R. Behr

Summary: ACM and BrS are inherited diseases characterized by increased risk for arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. Studies suggest an overlap in pathophysiology, genetics, structure, and electrophysiology between the two diseases, potentially indicating that they may be variants of the same disease spectrum.

Alterations of the Sialylation Machinery in Brugada Syndrome

Andrea Ghiroldi, Giuseppe Ciconte, Pasquale Creo, Adriana Tarantino, Dario Melgari, Sara D'Imperio, Marco Piccoli, Federica Cirillo, Emanuele Micaglio, Michelle M. Monasky, Anthony Frosio, Emanuela T. Locati, Gabriele Vicedomini, Ilaria Rivolta, Carlo Pappone, Luigi Anastasia

Summary: Brugada Syndrome (BrS) is a genetic arrhythmogenic disorder associated with mutations in genes affecting the sodium channel NaV1.5. This study investigated the involvement of sialylation, a post-translational modification, in BrS. The researchers found significant alterations in gene expression and protein sialylation in BrS patients, which were associated with the clinical phenotype of the disease. Furthermore, protein desialylation was found to reduce sodium current. These findings suggest that dysregulation of sialylation may play a role in BrS and could potentially be used as a biomarker for the disease.

Brugada Syndrome: More than a Monogenic Channelopathy

Antonella Liantonio, Matteo Bertini, Antonietta Mele, Cristina Balla, Giorgia Dinoi, Rita Selvatici, Marco Mele, Annamaria De Luca, Francesca Gualandi, Paola Imbrici

Summary: Brugada syndrome is a challenging disease in terms of diagnosis, arrhythmia risk prediction, pathophysiology, and management. The identification of a polygenic origin and the potential role of common genetic variants have laid the foundation for using polygenic risk scores for individual risk prediction. The understanding of this syndrome is evolving towards considering it as a partly structural disease rather than solely an electrical disease.

The Genetics of Brugada Syndrome

Marina Cerrone, Sarah Costa, Mario Delmar

Summary: Brugada syndrome is an ion channel disease characterized by a unique ECG pattern and increased risk of cardiac arrhythmias. Although the genetic transmission of this condition is diverse, the SCN5A gene is considered the primary disease-causing gene. Current understanding of the genetic architecture of the disease suggests involvement of polygenic inheritance and a polygenic risk score.

Brugada Syndrome

Andrew D. Krahn, Elijah R. Behr, Robert Hamilton, Vincent Probst, Zachary Laksman, Hui-Chen Han

Summary: Brugada syndrome is an inherited condition characterized by syncope and cardiac arrest during sleep, more commonly diagnosed in young to middle-aged males. Most cases are not associated with a single causative gene variant. Diagnosis relies on electrocardiogram findings and clinical presentation. Management involves conservative measures for asymptomatic patients and implantable cardioverter defibrillator insertion or drug therapy for symptomatic patients.

Use, misuse, and pitfalls of the drug challenge test in the diagnosis of the Brugada syndrome

Arthur A. M. Wilde, Ahmad S. Amin, Hiroshi Morita, Rafik Tadros

Summary: The diagnosis of Brugada syndrome (BrS) requires the presence of a coved (Type 1) ST segment elevation in the right precordial leads of the electrocardiogram (ECG). However, in patients with suspected BrS but non-diagnostic ECG at baseline, a sodium channel blocker test (SCBT) is used to unmask BrS. In asymptomatic patients, drug-induced Brugada pattern has a better prognosis compared to spontaneous Type 1 ECG.

Intracellular uptake of agents that block the hERG channel can confound the assessment of QT interval prolongation and arrhythmic risk

Alexander Burashnikov, Hector Barajas-Martinez, Robert Cox, Mark A. Demitrack, Michael J. Fossler, Michael Kramer, Robert B. Kleiman, Peter Kowey, Charles Antzelevitch

Summary: The study found that oliceridine and quinidine progressively prolonged the QTc interval and action potential duration in rabbit left ventricular wedge preparations over 5 hours, in line with slow tissue uptake of the drugs. Oliceridine caused modest prolongation of these parameters, while quinidine resulted in prominent prolongation and development of early afterdepolarization after 2 hours, leading to a high risk of torsades de pointes.

Summary: This review aims to identify the risks and incidences of sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) and the use of automated external defibrillators (AEDs) in soccer and basketball stadiums. Athletes across all sports face an SCA risk of 1:50,000 athlete-years, with the highest risk in young male athletes (1:35,000 person-years) and black male athletes (1:18,000 person-years). AED use on-site improves survival rates, but many stadiums lack implementation of AEDs and face obstacles in their usage. Therefore, AEDs should be incorporated into stadiums' medical plans and have certified trained personnel for optimal utilization.
