Abstract figure legend. Ventricular arrhythmogenic remodelling in diet‐induced metabolic syndrome (MetS) driven by right‐to‐left regional differences in action potential duration and dominant frequency gradients. An experimental model of diet‐induced MetS in rabbits (1) resulted in pathological remodelling in vivo, which was characterized by both ...

Assessment of left ventricular diastolic function with cardiovascular MRI: what radiologists should know [PDF]
Diastolic dysfunction is a common entity and the predominant cause of heart failure in 40%-50% of patients. Diagnosis of diastolic dysfunction is clinically relevant and is associated with a poor prognosis.

Early changes in cardiovascular structure and function in adolescents with type 1 diabetes. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Children with type 1 diabetes (T1D) are at higher risk of early adult-onset cardiovascular disease. We assessed cardiovascular structure and function in adolescents with T1D compared with healthy controls and the relationships between ...

Estimation of elastic and viscous properties of the left ventricle based on annulus plane harmonic behavior [PDF]
Assessment of left ventricular (LV) function with an emphasis on contractility has been a challenge in cardiac mechanics during the recent decades. The LV function is usually described by the LV pressurevolume (P-V) diagram. The standard P-V diagrams

Cardiovascular effects of fentanyl in conscious rats [PDF]
.: The polymicrobial sepsis induced by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) in the rat is widely used in shock research. For ethical reasons, narcotic analgesics are often administered in this model, with the potential risk of confounding effects.
