The Conduction System of the Heart
Abstract
This fine monograph is the outgrowth of a structure-function workshop on cardiac conduction tissue held in the Netherlands in the spring of 1975. The three editors, all members of the Department of Cardiology and Clinical Physiology, Wilhelmina Gasthuis, Amsterdam, dedicated the volume to Dr Durrer. They gathered a distinguished group of electrophysiologists and morphologists and presented the material in the following seven major parts: anatomy and physiology of the developing conduction system, electron microscopy of the conduction system, impulse formation and conduction, sinus node and atrium, the atrioventricular junction, the bundle branches and the ventricle, the Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome, and myocardial infarction. Of the 37 chapters, five are devoted to morphologic features of the conduction system and the remaining 32 to electrophysiology. Although only 16% of the nonbibliographic portion of this book concerns morphology, these 107 pages by Anderson et al are superbly written and beautifully illustrated. The electrophysiology chapters contain

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
