Leonardo Bertagnolli - Cardiac Arrhythmia - UCI Investigation
See the cyclingnews.com excerpt below. Leonardo Bertagnolli started his pro
career just 6 years ago and recently recovered from cardiac arrhythmia. Is the UCI wondering if his cardiac arrhythmia is related to doping? Doesn't the UCI believe that EPO renders the blood dense and causes serious vascular problems like cardiac arrhythmia? Is the UCI going to open an investigation into the true cause of Leonardo's victory? I will not be surprised if they do. ----------------------------------- "Leonardo Bertagnolli has marked a splendid return to his best by winning the 27th edition of the Clásica San Sebastián today in Spain. The 29 year-old Italian of Team Liquigas escaped at 11 kilometres remaining of the 225-kilometre race with Juan Manuel Gárate (Quick.Step Innergetic) to then overpower the Spaniard in a head to head sprint on the hot finishing straight along the Bay of Biscay. A small chase headed by Alejandro Valverde (Caisse d'Epargne) and Alessandro Ballan (Lampre-Fondital) finished around a half-minute back. The sixth-year professional from Trento had to stop for a month this spring for what doctors diagnosed as cardiac arrhythmia but he was able to build back to top-form and mark his first win after 17 months."

Lot's of people have various forms of arrythmia with no ill effect at all, and it's not caused by doping. |

Darbepoetin alfa (rINN) (IPA: [d??(?)b?'p??t?n]) is a synthetic form of
erythropoietin. It stimulates erythropoiesis (increases red blood cell levels) and is used to treat anemia, commonly associated with chronic renal failure and cancer chemotherapy. Darbepoetin is marketed by Amgen under the trade name Aranesp. Like EPO its use increases the risk of cardiovascular problems, including cardiac arrest, seizures, A-R-R-H-Y-T-H-M-I-A or strokes, hypertension and hypertensive encephalopathy, congestive heart failure, vascular thrombosis or ischemia, myocardial infarction and edema.

I have one, you may have one, you won't know for sure if you've never been tested. Mine was determined to be of no particular risk and was considered to be due to the fact I was 'too athletic', to put it in the terms of the cardiologist who did my stress test. You can try to stir up the **** pot if you wish and make something out of this if you want, but its not really helping anything/anyone to go on witch hunts every time a cyclist presents with a health problem that MIGHT be a result of drug use, but it also a commonly found problem in perhaps a quarter of the population at large. |

Oh, so now you go to Wika - effing - pedia for medical knowledge.
Go to the prescribing information for any legal drug. In a large percentage of them you will find arrythmia / dysrythmia as a consequence. You will also find that many drugs cause constipation, and diarrhia. Go figure. Read Scott's post again. He appears to be a better source than your googling wikapedia |

Now that is even greater because that was my point with regard to the UCI.
The UCI is not really helping anything/anyone to go on which hunts everytime a cyclist presents with a health problem (e.g., Ryan Cox of Barloworld) that MIGHT be a result of drug use. ----------------------------------------- That's great... but it still doesn't change the facts that an arrythmia is not a vascular problem or that lot's of people have arrythmias.

It can be caused by many things, and also appears as a warning or precaution in many drug profiles. Do not jump to the conclusion that it is drug caused. Your knowledge probably matches your spelling. |
