Abstract
To study effectiveness and safety of combined use of the beta-blocker metoprolol succinate with amiodarone for prevention of paroxysms of atrial fibrillation, 124patients with stage II-III arterial hypertension were followed (87 women and 37 men aged 34-78years, mean age 64.1±9.5years).

Abstract
To study electrophysiological properties of Maheim tracts, their anatomic localization, and potentialities of their elimination with radiofrequency catheter ablation, 37patients aged 3-45years were examined and operated.

Abstract
To study the effect of the recorder characteristics, algorithmic properties of software processing products, and different ECG lead systems on detection of late ventricular potentials, 187 records of a high-resolution ECG obtained in 60patients aged 27-78years (mean 60±3years) were analyzed.

Abstract
To evaluate the dynamics of cardiac output in the course of changes in pacing regimes using the integral of circulation in the right carotid artery and such ultrasound indices as: indices of intra- and inter-ventricular dyssynchrony, index of mechanic delay, the left ventricular ejection fraction, and others, twelve patients with chronic heart failure of functional classes III-IV (NYHA) in whom the resynchronizing treatment was performed were followed-up.

Abstract
To study the effect of radiofrequency ablation of atrio-ventricular node with pacemaker implantation on the quality of life of patients with medically resistant atrial fibrillation of non-valvular origin, 12patients of the study group and 24 patients of the reference group, in whom the interventional treatment was not performed, were followed up.
EXPERIMENYAL ARTICLES

Abstract
To study the effect of intramyocardial transplantation of mononuclear cells of bone marrow on extrasystolic (premature) and post-extrasystolic contractions of myocardium of rats after destruction, the experiments were carried out on 34 Wistar rats.

Abstract
The history of creation of implantable cardioverters-defibrillators is presented; considered are the results of a number of multi-center studies performed to compare the effectiveness of antiarrhythmic drugs and implantable devices in primary and secondary prevention of sudden cardiac death.

Abstract
The data are considered of studies of effects of medical treatment, implantation of cardioverters-defibrillators, and resynchronizing therapy on the survival of patients with congestive heart failure.
CASE REPORTS

Abstract
A clinical case is presented of the manifesting WPW-syndrome with syncope of a combined origin in a female patient, in whom the paroxysm of atrial fibrillation transformed into ventricular fibrillation in the course of transesophageal pacing (electrophysiological study).

Abstract
The results of endocardial electrophysiological study and radiofrequency catheter ablation are presented of a 6-month-old female patient with paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia with long RP interval operated earlier because of the latent WPW-syndrome with the right inferior paraseptal location of the accessory pathway.
ST SEGMENT ELEVATION IN PATIENTS WITH ATRIAL FIBRILLATION IN CONTRAST ANGIOGRAPHY OF PULMONARY VEINS
61-63 446
Abstract
Five cases are presented of transient elevation of ST segment in the course of administration of a contrast medium into the left upper pulmonary vein in the course of radiofrequency isolation of pulmonary vein ostia in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation; the possible pathophysiological mechanisms of recorded electrocardiographic changes are discussed.
64-67 154
Abstract
A clinical case is presented of microvessel coronary damage verified in autopsy and resulted in development of recurrent silent (asymptomatic, low-symptomatic) large-focal myocardial infarction in a 52-year-old male patient with X-syndrome.

Abstract
The possibility is considered of use of indirect signs for revelation of retrograde conduction in patients with paroxysmal reciprocal atrio-ventricular tachycardias; the necessity of complex examination of such patients is grounded including the cases with clinically evident diagnosis.
