(1) The sphincter between the esophagus and the stomach is the lower esophageal, or cardiac , sphincter.

(2) Patches of the mucous membrane of the upper part of the esophagus are frequently found whose structure resembles the cardiac part of the stomach.

(3) We determined cardiac reactivity by averaging heart rate in the 20 seconds immediately after presentation of the stimulus.

(4) When nurses went to his room, they found a u251cu00f6u251cu00e7u251cu2510flat lineu251cu00f6u251cu00e7u251cu00fb on the cardiac monitor and no heart rate, the report said.

(5) He survived a near fatal heart attack and subsequent cardiac surgery, only to succumb to motor neurone disease.

(6) Proximal stomach tumors of the cardiac region have actually increased in incidence in recent years.

(7) With the fall intravascular volume, there is diminished venous return to the right heart, low cardiac output, and a drop in systemic blood pressure.

(8) Cardiac risk

(9) Heart palpitations and cardiac arrhythmias are common problems encountered by family physicians.

(10) Once cardiac arrhythmias, structural heart disease, and non-cardiac causes of syncope have been ruled out, head up tilt testing is usually the first line of testing.

(11) The decrease in cardiac output that accompanies heart failure also leads to significant reductions in renal blood flow.

(12) High output failure occurs when the cardiac output of the heart remains significantly elevated for a long period.

(13) Two days after the cardiac injury, the hearts of all the rats were removed and examined.

(14) For example, after a heart attack or cardiac surgery, minor muscular chest aches and pains may be misinterpreted as evidence of angina, leading to unnecessary worry and disability.

(15) These mice are characterized by polycythemia but have normal blood pressure, heart rate, and cardiac output.

(16) In these patients, the heart rate, cardiac output, and blood pressure rise appropriately in response to exercise.

(17) Compared to cancer of the distal stomach, cardiac cancer carries an even worse prognosis.

(18) Cardiac surgery

(19) Fewer than half of the patients referred to emergency departments and cardiac outpatient clinics have heart disease.

(20) New labeling information includes: post-marketing reports of heart attacks, sudden cardiac deaths, and hypertension.
