We have prepared and tested in vivo a novel nanoengineered hybrid electroconductive
cardiac patch for treating the infarcted myocardium. Of the prepared and tested patches, only …

Background: The ability to increase heart rate during exercise and other stressors is a key
homeostatic feature of the sinoatrial node (SAN). When the physiological heart rate …

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most common mendelian heart disease, with a

(HFpEF). While heterogeneous in origin, the most common form of HFpEF is the …

Key points Heart failure (HF), the leading cause of death in developed countries, occurs in
the setting of reduced (HFrEF) or preserved (HFpEF) ejection fraction. Unlike HFrEF, there …

Objectives: This study investigated the rates and predictors of SD or aborted cardiac arrest
(ACA) in HFpEF. Background: Sudden death (SD) may be an important mode of death in …

Background: Adverse environmental exposure during the prenatal period can lead to
diseases in the offspring, including hypertension. Whether or not the hypertensive …
