The functional role of structural complexities in the propagation of depolarization in the atrium of the dog. Cardiac conduction disturbances due to discontinuities of effective axial resistivity.
Open accessAbstract
We use the term "effective axial resistivity" to indicate the resistivity in the direction of propagation (i.e., the direction normal to the orientation of the wavefront), rather than the resistivity in the direction of the long axis of the fibers.The resistance to current flow in the direction of propagation depends on the intracellular and extracellular resistivities, the size and shape of the cells, cellular packing, and the resistance, extent, and distribution of the cell-to-cell couplings.We use the word effective axial resistivity, R., to include the effects of all of these (Spach et al., 1979(Spach et al., , 1981)).

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.
