Sinoatrial node atrial cells, with the average cell being around 8 micrometers in diameter and 20-30 micrometers in length (1 micrometer= 0.000001 meter). Unlike the atrial cells, SA node cells contain fewer mitochondria (the power plant of the cell), fewer myofibers (the contractile machinery of the cell), and a smaller sarcoplasmic reticulum (a calcium storage organelle that releases calcium for contraction). This means that the SA node cells are less equipped to contract compared to the atrial and ventricular cells. Action potentials pass from one cardiac cell to the next through pores known as gap junctions. These gap junctions are made of
Node influence metric probabilities. The accessibility has been shown to reveal community structure in urban networks, corresponds to the number of nodes which can be visited in a defined time period, and is predictive of the outcome of epidemiological SIR model spreading processes on networks with large diameter and low density. The expected force measures node influence from an epidemiological perspective. It is the expected value of the force of infection generated by the node after two transmissions. The expected force of a node formula_4 is given by where the sum is taken over the set formula_9 of all possible transmission clusters resulting
