This breakthrough could significantly enhance treatment options for high-risk patients. 3. Stem Cell-Derived Cardiac Muscle Patches A cutting-edge approach using stem cell-derived cardiac muscle patches has shown the potential to repair damaged heart tissue. ...
Drug Discovery Platform IVS has become a leading developer of human 3D cell and tissue culture models by providing a high-throughput, functional system for testing cardio safety and efficacy to screen and identify compounds or pathways that may alter cardiac physiology and pathology. ...
They may interact with aging to further increase the risk of developing the condition. [5] Obesity is often accompanied by increased epicardial adipose tissue volume, which transduces the effects of these diseases on cardiac function and structure. ...
The IPG may affect the operation of other implanted devices such as cardiac defibrillators, pacemakers, or neurological stimulation systems. ...

The heart is a unique organ in many respects since its activity is mandatory to sustain life. The heart’s circulatory system and coronary flow regulation are highly adapted to the vital role of the heart in sustaining life and to everyday physiological challenges. Understanding coronary physiology is key for treating patients with ischemic heart disease in general, and ...
Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM) HCM is the second most common form of pediatric cardiomyopathy, occurring when abnormal muscle tissue growth causes the walls of the ventricles to thicken, making it harder for the heart to fill and contract properly. ...
The ventricular myocardium of the human heart is composed of an anisotropic tissue structure that allows for force generation and contraction to pump blood throughout the body. It has long been established that the collagen-rich, fibrous, extracellular matrix environment guides the formation of this laminar tissue architecture. The structural and mechanical ...
Background - Limitations of coronary thrombolysis include the time to reperfusion, patency rate, and bleeding. We evaluated the use of noninvasive transcutaneous ultrasound to augment coronary thrombolysis. Methods and Results - In 24 dogs, a thrombotic occlusion of the left anterior descending coronary artery was induced and documented by 12-lead ECG and coronary angiography. After $60 minutes ...
