Proteomic and metabolomic analyses of the human adult myocardium reveal ventricle-specific regulation in end-stage cardiomyopathies. [PDF]
The left and right ventricles of the human heart are functionally and developmentally distinct such that genetic or acquired insults can cause dysfunction in one or both ventricles resulting in heart failure.

Acclimation of Hairless Spontaneously Hypertensive Rat to Ambient Temperature Attenuates Hypertension-Induced Pro-Arrhythmic Downregulation of Cx43 in the Left Heart Ventricle of Males. [PDF]
Objectives: Due to poor treatment adherence and lifestyle-based interventions, chronic hypertension is a dominant risk factor predisposing individuals to heart failure and malignant arrhythmias.

Association of Abnormal Serum L-Carnitine Levels with Idiopathic Changes in Left Ventricular Geometry in Pediatric and Adolescent Patients [PDF]
Background: There is no compelling evidence to prove an association between serum free L-carnitine levels and changes in left ventricular (LV) geometry. The present study aimed to evaluate a possible association between these parameters.

Early surgical intervention for unusually located cardiac fibroelastomas [PDF]
Papillary fibroelastomas are the second most common primary cardiac tumor in adults. Over 80% of fibroelastomas occur on the cardiac valves, usually on the left side of the heart, while the remaining lesions are typically scattered throughout the atria ...

Numerical simulation of electrocardiograms for full cardiac cycles in healthy and pathological conditions [PDF]
This work is dedicated to the simulation of full cycles of the electrical activity of the heart and the corresponding body surface potential. The model is based on a realistic torso and heart anatomy, including ventricles and atria.
