Spongy Myocardium

Cardiology, 1997
Spongy myocardium is a rare congenital anomaly. We report a 35-year-old patient in whom diagnosis of spongy myocardium had been made by angiocardiography 20 years before. The disorder eventually resulted in progressive right and left heart failure.

Respiration in Myocardium

Nature, 1968
The qO2 or oxygen uptake of a tissue is considered to be a reflexion of the metabolic energy produced through substrate catabolism to support its functional activities. It is usually accepted that the total in vivo oxygen consumption is directly related to ATP production as the sole energy transfer and storage mechanism for endergonic processes1 ...

The diabetic myocardium

Current Diabetes Reports, 2006
Heart failure and diabetes mellitus are frequently associated, with diabetes potentiating the development of heart failure after other myocardial insults. This review documents the evidence in support of a specific primary myocardial disease in diabetes.

Phospholipases of the myocardium

1987
The myocardium contains diverse cellular components and heterogeneous phospholipid-containing membranes. The major phospholipids are phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositnol, sphingomyelin and cardiolipin. The phospholipases capable of hydrolyzing these membrane lipids include phospholipase A, lysophospholipase, and ...

Preconditioning Myocardium with Ischemia

Cardiovascular Drugs and Therapy, 1991
Preconditioning and stunning are the chief adaptive changes induced in myocardium by a brief episode of reversible ischemia followed by arterial reperfusion. In the dog heart, both coexist for a period of at least 20 minutes of reperfusion, but after 120 minutes of reflow, preconditioning is much diminished, while stunning remains fully developed ...

Stunning of the myocardium: An update [PDF]

open access: possibleCardiovascular Drugs and Therapy, 1991
When severely ischemic myocardium is reperfused, prolonged myocardial dysfunction--a phenomenon named myocardial stunning--frequently occurs. Stunning also occurs in a variety of other situations. These include myocardium located adjacent to infarcted tissue, transient increase in myocardial O2 demands in the presence of incomplete coronary obstruction,

CALCIFICATION OF THE MYOCARDIUM

Annals of Internal Medicine, 1947
Excerpt In 1924 Scholz1assembled from the literature 30 cases of calcification of the myocardium. He classified 14 as due to myocarditis.

Hibernating Myocardium: A Review

Journal of Molecular and Cellular Cardiology, 1996
Within a few seconds after a sudden reduction of coronary blood flow regional contractile dysfunction ensues. The mechanisms responsible for the rapid reduction in contractile function during acute myocardial ischemia remain unclear, but may involve a rise in inorganic phosphate.

Stunned Myocardium and Hibernating Myocardium: Pathophysiology

2001
The first observations on the effects of decreased blood flow on myocardial contractility were made by Tennant and Wigers in 1935 in coronary occlusion experiments [1]. The relationships between the duration and severity of the ischaemia and their functional, biochemical and structural consequences have been established much more recently only when ...

Hibernating myocardium

American Journal of Critical Care, 2001
According to estimates, up to 50% of patients with coronary artery disease and impaired left ventricular function have areas of viable myocardium. This dysfunctional, yet viable myocardial tissue, which can improve functionally after myocardial oxygen supply is reestablished, has been called hibernating myocardium.
