1.
Association between PTSD and Impedance Cardiogram-based contractility metrics during trauma recall: A controlled twin study
Sheikh S, Alday E, Rad A, Levantsevych O, Alkhalaf M, Soudan M, et al.
Psychophysiology . 2022 Oct; 60(3):e14197. PMID: 36285491
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is an independent risk factor for incident heart failure, but the underlying cardiac mechanisms remained elusive. Impedance cardiography (ICG), especially when measured during stress, can help...

Gender Disparities Between Neighborhood Social Vulnerability and Psychological Distress Among Patients with Heart Disease
Sullivan S, Young A, Garcia M, Almuwaqqat Z, Moazzami K, Hammadah M, et al.
J Womens Health (Larchmt) . 2022 Aug; 31(10):1440-1449. PMID: 35960809
Psychological stress disorders are twice as prevalent in women with ischemic heart disease compared to men. The disproportionate psychological health experience of these women is not well understood. The objective...

Association of Autonomic Activation with traumatic reminder challenges in posttraumatic stress disorder: A co-twin control study
Alday E, Da Poian G, Levantsevych O, Murrah N, Shallenberger L, Alkhalaf M, et al.
Psychophysiology . 2022 Aug; 60(2):e14167. PMID: 35959570
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) has been associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD), but the mechanisms remain unclear. Autonomic dysfunction, associated with higher CVD risk, may be triggered by acute PTSD symptoms....

Effect of transcutaneous cervical vagus nerve stimulation on the pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) response to stress: A randomized, sham controlled, double blind pilot study
Gurel N, Jiao Y, Wittbrodt M, Ko Y, Hankus A, Driggers E, et al.
Compr Psychoneuroendocrinol . 2022 Jun; 4:100012. PMID: 35755625
Methods: A total of 30 subjects with a history of exposure to psychological trauma experience were recruited (12 with PTSD diagnosis) for a three-day randomized double-blinded study of tcVNS or...

Data-driven approach for automatic detection of aortic valve opening: B point detection from impedance cardiogram
Sheikh S, Gurel N, Gupta S, Chukwu I, Levantsevych O, Alkhalaf M, et al.
Psychophysiology . 2022 Jun; 59(12):e14128. PMID: 35717594
Pre-ejection period (PEP), an indicator of sympathetic nervous system activity, is useful in psychophysiology and cardiovascular studies. Accurate PEP measurement is challenging and relies on robust identification of the timing...

Early Life Trauma Is Associated With Increased Microvolt T-Wave Alternans During Mental Stress Challenge: A Substudy of Mental Stress Ischemia: Prognosis and Genetic Influences
Shah A, Weeks V, Lampert R, Douglas Bremner J, Kutner M, Raggi P, et al.
J Am Heart Assoc . 2022 Feb; 11(5):e021582. PMID: 35167312
Background Early life trauma has been associated with increased cardiovascular risk, but the arrhythmic implications are unclear. We hypothesized that in patients with coronary artery disease, early life trauma predicts...

Validation of a new impedance cardiography analysis algorithm for clinical classification of stress states
Sheikh S, Gurel N, Gupta S, Chukwu I, Levantsevych O, Alkhalaf M, et al.
Psychophysiology . 2022 Feb; 59(7):e14013. PMID: 35150459
Pre-ejection period (PEP) is an index of sympathetic nervous system activity that can be computed from electrocardiogram (ECG) and impedance cardiogram (ICG) signals, but sensitive to speech/motion artifact. We sought...

Transcutaneous Cervical Vagus Nerve Stimulation Inhibits the Reciprocal of the Pulse Transit Time's Responses to Traumatic Stress in Posttraumatic Stress Disorder
Gazi A, Sundararaj S, Harrison A, Gurel N, Wittbrodt M, Alkhalaf M, et al.
Annu Int Conf IEEE Eng Med Biol Soc . 2021 Dec; 2021:1444-1447. PMID: 34891557
Research has shown that transcutaneous cervical vagus nerve stimulation (tcVNS) yields downstream changes in peripheral physiology in individuals afflicted with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). While the cardiovascular effects of tcVNS...

Racial Disparities in Adverse Cardiovascular Outcomes After a Myocardial Infarction in Young or Middle-Aged Patients
Garcia M, Almuwaqqat Z, Moazzami K, Young A, Lima B, Sullivan S, et al.
J Am Heart Assoc . 2021 Aug; 10(17):e020828. PMID: 34431313
Background Black patients tend to develop coronary artery disease at a younger age than other groups. Previous data on racial disparities in outcomes of myocardial infarction (MI) have been inconsistent...

Relation of High-sensitivity Cardiac Troponin I Elevation With Exercise to Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events in Patients With Coronary Artery Disease
Lima B, Hammadah M, Kim J, Uphoff I, Shah A, Levantsevych O, et al.
Am J Cardiol . 2020 Sep; 136:1-8. PMID: 32941818
High sensitive cardiac troponin I (hs-cTnI) increases with inducible myocardial ischemia in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). We aimed to assess if the change in hs-cTnI levels with exercise...
