Temporal profile and mechanisms of the prompt sympathoexcitation following coronary ligation in Wistar rats [PDF]
, 2014 Our aim was to assess the timing and mechanisms of the sympathoexcitation that occurs immediately after coronary ligation. We recorded thoracic sympathetic (tSNA) and phrenic activities, heart rate (HR) and perfusion pressure in Wistar rats subjected to ...

A Computational Journey Toward an Optimal Design for Metamaterial Epicardial Passive Sleeves
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Passive epicardial sleeves are evaluated in 3D in‐silico heart models to reveal how sleeve geometry, stiffness, anisotropy, and metamaterial architecture influence cardiac mechanics after myocardial infarction. A continuum‐to‐auxetic design exploration shows that region‐specific mechanical engagement can reduce infarct bulging and modulate torsional ...
