Evaluation of diastolic function by cardiac MRI in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: validation of 3D model-based analysis of left ventricular filling curves [PDF]
Background Diastolic function (DF) is not routinely assessed by cardiac MR (CMR), but is critical for assessment of common disease states such as heart failure or hypertrophy. At present, special pulse sequences (tagging, phase contrast) are necessary for CMR for diastolic function assessment. The purpose of this study was to assess cine CMR volumetric

Glucocorticoid-endocannabinoid interaction in cardiac surgical patients: relationship to early cognitive dysfunction and late depression [PDF]
Background: Endocannabinoids (ECs) are rapidly acting immune-modulatory lipid-signaling molecules that are important for adaptation to stressful and aversive situations. They are known to interact with glucocorticoids and other stress-responsive systems.

The Dynamics of Sustained Reentry in a Loop Model with Discrete Gap Junction Resistance
Dynamics of reentry are studied in a one dimensional loop of model cardiac cells with discrete intercellular gap junction resistance ($R$). Each cell is represented by a continuous cable with ionic current given by a modified Beeler-Reuter formulation ...

Clinical value and role of microRNA-29c-3p in sepsis-induced inflammation and cardiac dysfunction
Background The goal of this study was to investigate the diagnostic value of miR-29c-3p in sepsis and its role in sepsis-induced inflammatory response and cardiac dysfunction. Methods Serum level of miR-29c-3p was detected by qRT-PCR.

Goal-directed therapy in intraoperative fluid and hemodynamic management. [PDF]
Intraoperative fluid management is pivotal to the outcome and success of surgery, especially in high-risk procedures. Empirical formula and invasive static monitoring have been traditionally used to guide intraoperative fluid management and assess volume
