Post-myocardial infarction fibrosis: Pathophysiology, examination, and intervention
Cardiac fibrosis plays an indispensable role in cardiac tissue homeostasis and repair after myocardial infarction (MI). The cardiac fibroblast-to-myofibroblast differentiation and extracellular matrix collagen deposition are the hallmarks of cardiac ...

Cystic fibrosis related chronic liver disease: a study of its influence upon prognosis and possible mechanisms for this; with specific reference to pulmonary and systemic haemodynamics [PDF]
MDTo assess the influence of chronic liver disease on survival a time dependent multivariate Cox regression analysis was It performed. The results confirmed that patients with evidence of chronic liver disease have a worse prognosis.

Therapeutic Potential of Polyphenols in Cardiac Fibrosis
Cardiac fibrosis, in response to injury and stress, is central to a broad constellation of cardiovascular diseases. Fibrosis decreases myocardial wall compliance due to extracellular matrix (ECM) accumulation, leading to impaired systolic and diastolic ...

Cardiac fibrosis and miR-433 [PDF]
Heart failure (HF) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality (1). It affects approximately 5.4 million people in the United States with an incidence of 690,000 cases/year (2). Cardiac fibrosis (CF) has traditionally been regarded as a secondary phenomenon in the pathogenesis of HF.

Noncoding RNAs and Cardiac Fibrosis
Myocardial fibrosis is a common pathological feature of various terminal cardiovascular diseases. Progressive fibrosis is the pathological basis for the development and progression of many cardiac arrhythmias and heart failure. There are no effective reversal drugs for myocardial fibrosis due to the lack of understanding of the molecular mechanisms ...
