Study snapshot
Abstract
Recovery sequence of ventricular epicardium and body surface potential distribution during the ST-T complex in birds, were studied. Recovery sequence of ventricular epicardium in hens appeared to be independent of activation sequence and to be governed by activation-recovery intervals. Inversion of mutual location of positive and negative areas on the body surface in hens corresponded to the end of the QRS complex and the beginning of the ST-T complex.
AI evidence extraction
Structured fields below were generated from the paper’s abstract and metadata to make the evidence easier to inspect. Automated extraction may be incomplete or incorrect; verify important details against the original paper.
Main findings
In hens, the ventricular epicardium recovery sequence appeared independent of the activation sequence and was described as governed by activation-recovery intervals. The inversion of positive and negative areas on the body surface corresponded to the end of the QRS complex and the beginning of the ST-T complex.
Outcomes measured
- Ventricular epicardium recovery sequence during ST-T complex
- Body surface potential distribution during ST-T complex
- Activation-recovery intervals
- Timing of inversion of positive/negative body surface potential areas relative to QRS and ST-T complexes
Limitations
- No electromagnetic field exposure described (cardio-electric potentials measured)
- Sample size not reported in abstract
- Methods and quantitative results not provided in abstract
