Parametric investigation of an injection-jet self-powered Fontan circulation
Scientific Reports, 2022 Approximately $$1/2500$$ 1 / 2500 babies are born with only one functioning ventricle and the Fontan is the third and, ideally final staged palliative operation for these patients.

Metabolic Mechanisms in Heart Failure [PDF]
Circulation, 2007 Although neurohumoral antagonism has successfully reduced heart failure morbidity and mortality, the residual disability and death rate remains unacceptably high. Though abnormalities of myocardial metabolism are associated with heart failure, recent data suggest that heart failure may itself promote metabolic changes such as insulin resistance, in ...

Management of Mechanical Ventilation in Decompensated Heart Failure. [PDF]
, 2016 Mechanical ventilation (MV) is a life-saving intervention for respiratory failure, including decompensated congestive heart failure. MV can reduce ventricular preload and afterload, decrease extra-vascular lung water, and decrease the work of breathing ...

Mechanisms driving the ageing heart [PDF]
Experimental Gerontology, 2018 Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death globally. One of the main risk factors for CVD is age, however the biological processes that occur in the heart during ageing are poorly understood. It is therefore important to understand the fundamental mechanisms driving heart ageing to enable the development of preventions and treatments ...
