Reccurence plot for heart rate variability analysis
Franěk, Pavel ; Čmiel, Vratislav (referee) ; Janoušek, Oto (advisor)
The aim of this thesis is to describe the variability of cardiac rhythm and familiarity with the methods of the analysis, ie by monitoring changes in heart rhythm electrogram signal recording and using the methods in the time domain using recurrent diagram. The work describes the quantification of the methods and possibilities of quantifiers in the evaluation of heart rate variability analysis. It also describes the clinical significance of heart rate variability and diagnostic capabilities changes of heart rate variability caused by ischemic heart disease. The practical part describes how to create applications in Matlab to calculate the quantifiers analysis of heart rate variability in the time domain using recurrent diagram. The calculation was made of the positions R wave elektrogram signal isolated rabbit hearts. The calculated values of quantifiers both methods were statistically evaluated and discussed.
The role of sphingosin kinase in cardioprotection
Pospíšilová, Barbora ; Nováková, Olga (advisor) ; Kolář, David (referee)
Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is bioactive mediator with cardioprotective effect. Sphingosine kinase (SK) is a key enzyme in the synthesis of S1P. It exists in the two isoforms sphingosine kinase 1 and sphingosine kinase 2. Although SK1 has antiapoptotic feature and SK2 has proapoptotic feature both are crucial for the effect of S1P. S1P can act and affect the cellular faith by intracellular or extracellular functioning. Extracellular S1P binds and activates specific cell surface receptors on the plasma membrane. These receptors are members of the group of G protein-coupled receptors. There are tree subtypes of S1P receptors in the heart tissue (S1P1, S1P2, S1P3). Exogenous S1P increases viability of cardiomyocytes after myocardiacal ischemia/reperfusion injury (I/R). It also reduces the infarct size in isolated rat heart. During conditions of ischemic preconditioning (IPC) or postconditioning (IPOST) which consist of the short periods of ischemia before or after major ischemia insult generate S1P. Released S1P increased viability of the cell and faster recovery of hemodynamic functions in the heart tissue. Effects of S1P and its role in cardioprotection are explored in the genetically modified organisms mainly in the mouses. The evidence of the cardioprotective effect of S1P were experiments using...
