Enhancing stroke risk stratification in atrial fibrillation through non‐Newtonian blood modelling and Gaussian process emulation

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Non‐Newtonian modelling and GPEs for stroke risk in atrial fibrilation patients. Abstract Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common heart arrhythmia, linked to a five‐fold increase in stroke risk. The left atrial appendage (LAA), prone to blood stasis, is a common thrombus formation site in AF patients.

Prediabetic cardiomyopathy is attenuated by hypothalamic PVN oxytocin neuron activation

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A long‐term high‐fat, high‐fructose diet induces prediabetes with insulin resistance, hyperinsulinaemia, elevated triglycerides and metabolic‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) in male rats. Animals developed prediabetic cardiomyopathy characterized by diastolic dysfunction, interstitial fibrosis and tachycardia ...

Acute intermittent hypercapnic hypoxia augments left ventricular contractility

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Twenty‐four healthy adults were studied to determine the effects of an acute session of 40 min of intermittent hypercapnic hypoxia on cardiac performance. Cardiac function was assessed via echocardiography at rest and during graded stages of lower‐body negative pressure before and after the intervention to quantify load ...

Virtual left atrial appendage occlusion in paroxysmal atrial fibrillation during sinus rhythm predicts variable reductions in blood stasis

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Stasis before and after left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) in participants with high stasis and low stasis. Stasis is predominantly located in LAA and reduced after LAAO. But in the participant with high stasis, stasis remains close to the occlusion site, indicating a potential risk for device related thrombi.

Unveiling sex dimorphism in the healthy cardiac anatomy: Fundamental differences between male and female heart shapes

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend We present a shape modelling‐based morphological analysis of sex differences in cardiac anatomy. We conduct our analysis on 456 healthy subjects from the UK Biobank (227M/229F) to uncover sex‐based differences in healthy cardiac morphology.
