Alternans amplification following a two-stimulus protocol in a one-dimensional cardiac ionic model of reentry: From annihilation to double-wave quasiperiodic reentry
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Electrical pacing is a common procedure in both experimental and clinical settings to study and/or annihilate anatomical reentry. A previous study [Comtois and Vinet, Chaos 12, 903 (2002)] has described new ways to terminate reentry in a one-dimensional loop model by a protocol consisting of only two stimulations. Annihilation of the reentrant activity was much more likely with these new scenarios than through a unidirectional block. This paper investigates the sensitivity of these scenarios of annihilation to the length of the pathway. It shows that double-pulse stimulation can stop the reentry if the circuit is shorter than a limiting length. Beyond this upper limit, stimulation rather yields sustained double-wave reentry. The same dynamical mechanism, labeled alternans amplification, is found to be responsible for these two types of post-stimulus dynamics.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
