Gene Therapy00:59

Gene Therapy

27.6K
Gene therapy is a technique where a gene is inserted into a person’s cells to prevent or treat a serious disease. The added gene may be a healthy version of the gene that is mutated in the patient, or it could be a different gene that inactivates or compensates for the patient’s disease-causing gene. For example, in patients with severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) due to a mutation in the gene for the enzyme adenosine deaminase, a functioning version of the gene can be...

Determining Electric Field From Electric Potential01:12

Determining Electric Field From Electric Potential

5.0K
The electric field and electric potential are related to each other. If the electric field at various points in the region of interest is known, it can be used to calculate the electric potential difference between any two points. Similarly, if the electric potential is known for various points, then it is possible to calculate the electric field.
In general, regardless of whether the electric field is uniform, it points in the direction of decreasing potential because the force on a positive...

Finding Electric Potential From Electric Field

5.5K
For a system of charges, it is easy to calculate the system's potential because potential is a scalar quantity. However, in some instances where calculating the electric field is more straightforward than finding the potential, the electric field is used to calculate the system's potential. For a positive charge, the electric field is radially outward, and the potential is positive at any finite distance from the positive charge. In such an electric field, the motion away from the...

Group Therapy01:26

Group Therapy

417
Group therapy is a sociocultural approach to psychological treatment, where individuals with shared psychological challenges come together under the guidance of a mental health professional. This therapeutic modality offers unique opportunities for individuals to connect, share, and grow within the context of a supportive group. By fostering mutual understanding and collaboration, group therapy can address a range of psychological concerns effectively, often complementing or surpassing the...

Electric Potential Energy in a Uniform Electric Field01:09

Electric Potential Energy in a Uniform Electric Field

6.4K
When an electric field accelerates a free positive charge, it acquires kinetic energy. This process is analogous to an object being accelerated by a gravitational field as if the charge were going down an electrical hill where its electric potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, although, of course, the sources of the forces are very different. The electrostatic or Coulomb force acting on the positive test charge is conservative, which means that the work done on a test charge is...

Electrical Energy01:10

Electrical Energy

1.8K
Using electric appliances for a longer period of time consumes more electrical energy and results in a higher electric bill. The energy produced by the transfer of electrons from one point to another is known as electrical energy. If power is delivered at a constant rate, the electrical energy can be defined as the product of power used by the device for a period of time. The energy unit on electric bills is the kilowatt-hour, where one kilowatt-hour is equivalent to 3.6 × 106 joules.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Electrophysiology
  • Critical Care Medicine

Background:

  • Electrical storm (ES) is a critical, life-threatening event associated with poor prognosis.
  • ES presents significant challenges in understanding its causes and effective management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To define electrical storm (ES), review its incidence, and prognostic implications.
  • To describe current therapeutic advances and management strategies for ES.

Main Methods:

  • Comprehensive literature search of MEDLINE, EMBASE, and ClinicalTrials.gov (past 30 years).
  • Inclusion of bibliographical citations for additional relevant studies.
  • Focus on identifying and synthesizing data on ES etiology, prognosis, and treatment.

Main Results:

  • Therapeutic strategies for ES are currently heterogeneous and vary widely.
  • Risk stratification, hemodynamic assessment, and management of triggers/comorbidities are crucial.
  • Amiodarone, beta-blockers, deep sedation, mechanical ventilation, and thoracic epidural anesthesia are key components of acute care.
  • Catheter ablation is highlighted as a targeted approach for arrhythmia mechanisms.

Conclusions:

  • Management of ES requires complex assessment and critical decision-making.
  • First-line approaches include implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) reprogramming, antiarrhythmic drugs, and sedation.
  • Catheter ablation is an elective and central therapy for ES, ideally combined with hemodynamic support.
