Pro-Arrhythmic Effects of Discontinuous Conduction at the Purkinje Fiber-Ventricle Junction Arising From Heart Failure-Induced Ionic Remodeling – Insights From Computational Modelling

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2022
Heart failure is associated with electrical remodeling of the electrical properties and kinetics of the ion channels and transporters that are responsible for cardiac action potentials.

Structure-based finite strain modelling of the human left ventricle in diastole [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Finite strain analyses of the left ventricle provide important information on heart function and have the potential to provide insights into the biomechanics of myocardial contractility in health and disease. Systolic dysfunction is the most common cause

Relation between intraventricular pressure and volume in diastole [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
The pressure-volume curves for 10 patients with various types of heart disease were studied throughout mid to late diastole when both pressure and volume were increasing.

ECG Imaging to Detect the Site of Ventricular Ischemia Using Torso Electrodes: A Computational Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2019
Electrocardiography provides some information useful for ischemic diagnosis. However, more recently there has been substantial growth in the area of ECG imaging, which by solving the inverse problem of electrocardiography aims to produce high-resolution ...

Will the real ventricular architecture please stand up? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Ventricular twisting, essential for cardiac function, is attributed to the contraction of myocardial helical fibers. The exact relationship between ventricular anatomy and function remains to be determined, but one commonly used explanatory model is the ...

Pathways Regulating Establishment and Maintenance of Cardiac Chamber Identity in Zebrafish

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2021
The vertebrate heart is comprised of two types of chambers—ventricles and atria—that have unique morphological and physiological properties. Effective cardiac function depends upon the distinct characteristics of ventricular and atrial cardiomyocytes ...

Early Left Ventricular Involvement Detected by Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Feature Tracking in Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy: The Effects of Left Ventricular Late Gadolinium Enhancement and Right Ventricular Dysfunction

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019
Background Left ventricular (LV) involvement is common in arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC). We aim to evaluate LV involvement in ARVC patients by cardiovascular magnetic resonance feature tracking.

Using Systolic Local Mechanical Load to Predict Fiber Orientation in Ventricles

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2020
A simple rule adopted for myofiber reorientation in the ventricles is pursued by taking the microscopic branching network of myocytes into account.

Post-traumatic hypoxia exacerbates neurological deficit, neuroinflammation and cerebral metabolism in rats with diffuse traumatic brain injury

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation, 2011
Background The combination of diffuse brain injury with a hypoxic insult is associated with poor outcomes in patients with traumatic brain injury. In this study, we investigated the impact of post-traumatic hypoxia in amplifying secondary brain damage ...
