الأستاذ الدكتور نبيل الشريف أحد علماء كهروفسيولوجية القلب
في العالم وهو مصري الأصل والقلب. هاجر عالمنا الجليل إلي الولايات المتحدة الأمريكية
بعد حصوله علي درجة الدكتوراة من جامعة القاهرة في عام ١٩٦٥. وتخصص في علوم كهروفسيولوجية
القلب وخاصة العلوم الأساسية التي تفسر كيفية نشأة نبضات القلب. كما أنه مؤلف ومراجع
في هيئة تحرير العديد من المجلات المشهورة علي مستوي العالم. وقد دفعه حبه لمصر وانتماؤه
لأرضها أن يعود إلي أرض الوطن ليساعد شبابها ويتواصل معهم في بحور العلم فأصبح علما
مضئيا في مؤتمرات القلب بمصر. وفي هذا العدد نتناول بعضا من محاضرات أ. د. نبيل الشريف
وتلاميذه د. شريف زكي و د. أسامة دياب والتي تناقش أمراض الموت الفجاءة.
Dr. Nabil El-Sherif graduated from Cairo University School
of Medicine in 1960, received post graduate training at Cairo University Hospitals
and Mount Sinai Medical Center in Miami Beach, Florida. In 1978 he became a Professor
of Medicine and Physiology at the State University of New York (SUNY), Downstate
Medical Center and in 1984 became the director of the Cardiology division at Downstate.
He is currently the director of the Cardiology Division at the New York Harbor Veterans
Affairs Health Care Center, Brooklyn campus.
Dr. El-Sherif is an internationally recognized expert
in the field of basic and clinical cardiac electrophysiology. He has published
over 450 peer reviewed papers, reviews, and book chapters and has authored and
co-authored eight books. He is a member of the editorial board of several national
and international journals and served on the National Institutes of Health,
American Heart Association, and Veterans Affairs Central Office research study
groups. His research has been consistently supported by federal and non-federal
grants for the last 34 years and has dealt with the link between molecular biology,
ion channel physiology, cellular electrophysiology and clinical presentations
of cardiac arrhythmias.
Dr El-Sherif has made several seminal contributions
to understanding electrophysiological mechanisms of cardiac arrhythmias in general
and in myocardial ischemia/infarction in particular. His early studies on the
canine post-infarction model resulted in the description of the figure-of-eight
reentrant circuit. This was later confirmed in clinical studies where surgical
or electrode catheter ablation of the slow common pathway of the figure-of-eight
circuit was utilized as a therapeutic measure in appropriate patients. His experimental
studies in the canine pericarditis atrial flutter model contributed to identifying
the atrial flutter circuit isthmus by showing that ablation of the slow zone
of the circuit between the inferior vena cava and tricuspid ring resulted in
termination of atrial flutter. This became the basis of the successful technique
of radiofrequency ablation of atrial flutter circuit in the clinical setting.
His more recent studies have provided significant understanding of the electrophysiological
mechanism of torsades de pointes arrhythmias in both the congenital and acquired
long QT syndrome and the electrophysiological basis of the use of T-wave alternans
as a marker of susceptibility to malignant ventricular tachyarrhythmias. Dr
El-Sherif also contributed toward introducing the technique of signal averaged
electrocardiography to clinical practice as a non-invasive marker of ventricular
electrical vulnerability. His recent basic research involves studies of post-infarction
signal transduction pathways as targets of novel therapeutic interventions in
post-infarction patients.
Nabil has also contributed to graduate and post-graduate
medical education and has trained many clinical and basic cardiac electrophysiology
scientists who came to his clinical and basic laboratories from all over the
world. He has served on numerous national and international assignments. He
has received several honorary awards including the 2007 Outstanding Achievement
Award from the European Cardiac Arrhythmia Society (ECAS) and the 2010 Pioneer
of Cardiac Pacing and Electrophysiology from the Heart Rhythm Society.
