Importance of the right ventricle in valvular heart disease [PDF]
, 2017 The importance of the right ventricle as a determinant of clinical symptoms, exercise capacity, peri-operative survival and postoperative outcome has been underestimated for a long time.

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Engineered heart tissues (EHTs) are a valuable approach in capturing human cardiac physiology and drug responses in vitro. Here, a novel tapered pillar design is developed in an EHT platform to confine tissues in a predefined position‐ at the middle of the pillar height.

Age-Dependent Decline in Cardiac Function in Guanidinoacetate-N-Methyltransferase Knockout Mice
Frontiers in Physiology, 2020 AimGuanidinoacetate N-methyltransferase (GAMT) is the second essential enzyme in creatine (Cr) biosynthesis. Short-term Cr deficiency is metabolically well tolerated as GAMT–/– mice exhibit normal exercise capacity and response to ischemic heart failure.

Preservation of ventricular function by treatment of ventricular fibrillation with phenylephrine
Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 1990 Epinephrine promotes resuscitation from ventricular fibrillation because of its peripheral vasoconstrictive effects. However, the beta-adrenergic effects of epinephrine may be detrimental because of the stimulation of myocardial oxygen demand. To test whether functional recovery from fibrillation in hearts treated with a selective alpha-adrenergic ...

A Statistical Model for Risk Stratification on the Basis of Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction and Heart-Rate Turbulence [PDF]
, 2000 The MPIP data set was used to obtain a model for mortality risk stratification of acute myocardial infarction patients. The predictors heart rate turbulence (HRT) and left-ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) were employed. HRT was a categorical variable

Left ventricular global systolic function assessment by echocardiography
Annals of Cardiac Anaesthesia, 2016 The left ventricle, with its thickened myocardial walls, unlike the right ventricle has no measurable geometric shape. It has a conical apex and its function quantification, needs intensive, 2D, 3D and M mode transesophageal echocardiography, which is ...
