Analysis of left ventricular behaviour in diastole by means of finite element method [PDF]
, 1979 The human left ventricle in diastole can be modelled as a passive structure with incremental internal pressure change being considered as the load. Recent developments in engineering stress analysis provide techniques for predicting the behaviour of ...

Molecular genetics of arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy in South Africa [PDF]
, 2011 Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) is a heritable disorder characterised by progressive degeneration of the right ventricular myocardium, arrhythmias and an increased risk of sudden death at a young age. Fourteen chromosomal loci have
