Ventricular androgenic-anabolic steroid-related remodeling: an immunohistochemical study [PDF]
Background: Several fatal cases of bodybuilders, following a myocardial infarction after long exposure to androgenicanabolic steroids (AAS), are reported. In recent years, evidence has emerged of cases of heart failure related to AAS consumption, with no

THE ROLE OF ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY IN ASSESSMENT OF HEART REMODELING IN PATIENTS WITH CTEPH
SUMMERY The study included 40 patients with CTEPH of different severity. All patients underwent 2D and 3D echocardiography to assess structure and function of right and left heart chambers, ventricular interaction, and ventricular-vascular coupling.

Angiotensin-(1-7) and angiotensin-(1-9): function in cardiac and vascular remodeling [PDF]
The renin angiotensin system (RAS) is integral to cardiovascular physiology, however, dysregulation of this system largely contributes to the pathophysiology of cardiovascular disease (CVD).

Changes in left atrial deformation in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: Evaluation by vector velocity imaging. [PDF]
OBJECTIVES: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) represents a generalized myopathic process affecting both ventricular and atrial myocardium. We assessed the global and regional left atrial (LA) function and its relation to left ventricular (LV) mechanics ...

Pinocembrin Decreases Ventricular Fibrillation Susceptibility in a Rat Model of Depression
Background: Depression is associated with the increased risk of mortality and morbidity and is an independent risk factor for many cardiovascular diseases. Depression may promote cardiac arrhythmias, but little is known about the mechanisms.
