Zebrafish models of cardiovascular disease

Heart Failure Reviews, 2016
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. The most significant risk factors associated with the development of heart diseases include genetic and environmental factors such as hypertension, high blood cholesterol levels, diabetes, smoking, and obesity.

A Mathematical Model of the Cardiovascular System Based on the Scranton Cardiovascular Model

The FASEB Journal, 2016
The complexity of the cardiovascular system has led to the development of mathematical models to understand and predict physiological function and dysfunction. The unique model that we describe here is designed to match the Scranton Cardiovascular Model (SCM), a mechanical model that we recently developed1 to be used as a teaching tool.

Modeling Cardiovascular Disease in the Zebrafish

Trends in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2008
The zebrafish possesses a host of advantages that have established it as an excellent model of vertebrate development. These include ease of genetic manipulation and transgenesis, optical clarity, and small size and cost. Biomedical researchers are increasingly exploiting these advantages to model human disease mechanisms. Here we review the use of the

Examples of cardiovascular models

Journal of Chronic Diseases, 1966
RATIONALE OF CIRCULATORY MODELS In a recent symposium on computers in cardiovascular research, Dr. RUSHMER [2] made the following comments: “High-speed computers can accelerate progress by setting up current concepts as mathematical models*, testing their validity against the best available data and using the results to help determine what additional ...

Modeling in cardiovascular biomechanics

International Journal of Engineering Science, 2010
Abstract In this review, we briefly summarize some of Professor K.R. Rajagopal’s contributions to the field of cardiovascular mechanics and highlight some applications that have employed his theories and have expanded the ability to model the complex behaviors that characterize biological tissues.

Models in researching cardiovascular morphogenesis

Birth Defects Research Part C: Embryo Today: Reviews, 2012
AbstractSeveral types of “models” are used in modern biological and biomedical research and teaching. This article attempts to provide a brief explanation of the termini model organism, theoretic and mathematic model, three‐dimensional (3D) model, and 4D model, and an overview about the generation and the fields of applications of these types of models.

Predicting Cardiovascular Risk Factors from Retinal Fundus Photographs using Deep Learning

arXiv.org, 2017
Traditionally, medical discoveries are made by observing associations and then designing experiments to test these hypotheses. However, observing and quantifying associations in images can be difficult because of the wide variety of features, patterns ...

A Functional Cardiovascular Model with Disorders

2005 IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology 27th Annual Conference, 2005
This paper introduces a functional model of the cardiovascular system that is capable of describing its behavior in normal as well as pathologic cases. The developed model includes all the main compartments of the circulatory system and also the baroreflex-feedback regulatory mechanism.
