Stem cells may be used to deliver growth factors to repair damaged heart muscle or be differentiated into heart muscle cells to restore heart function.

Do you really want to elect a president whose genome suggests cardiomyopathy?

CIMT was significantly higher in the myocardial infarction group compared to the other group.

Only when the levels of calcium inside the muscle cell are high enough will it contract.

This is what's been written in report no.

The rhomboid major is a skeletal muscle on the back that connects the scapula with the vertebrae of the spinal column.

In human anatomy, the rhomboid minor is a small skeletal muscle on the back that connects the scapula with the vertebrae of the spinal column.

The use of plastination allowed the use of many body parts such as muscle, nerves, bones, ligaments, and central nervous system to be preserved.

In patients with congestive heart failure, it reduces the need for and the consumption of oxygen of the heart muscle.

Mitochondrial mutations can have serious consequences, including epilepsy, liver failure, diabetes, and cardiomyopathy.

Chest pain due to ischemia (a lack of blood and hence oxygen supply) of the heart muscle is termed angina pectoris.

This period occurs in the ascending phase of the T wave, when the ventricular myocardium is repolarizing, moving from systole to diastole (relaxation).

Commercial CADx systems for the diagnosis of bone metastases in whole body bone scans and coronary artery disease in myocardial perfusion images exist.

Ophthalmoparesis or ophthalmoplegia refers to weakness ( paresis) or paralysis ( plegia) of one or more extraocular muscles which are responsible for eye movements.

One was growing out the back, and it attached to the soleus muscle, which is a big muscle in the back that I'd never heard of, but all of a sudden I cared about it.

In humans, the ureters arise from the renal pelvis on the medial aspect of each kidney before descending towards the bladder on the front of the psoas major muscle.

Exercising any muscle for the first time takes dedication and grit, and it didn t take me long to realize that along with a civics program in schools, this country also needs better journalists and reporters.

In people with heart failure, those with a BMI between 30.0 and 34.9 had lower mortality than those with a normal weight.

Blood pressure is summarised by two measurements, systolic and diastolic, which depend on whether the heart muscle is contracting (systole) or relaxed between beats (diastole).

The trochlear nerve (the fourth cranial nerve) is a motor nerve (a somatic efferent nerve) that innervates a single muscle the superior oblique muscle of the eye.

Recent studies have shown that those subjects who have an extremely high occurrence of PVCs (several thousand a day) can develop dilated cardiomyopathy.

By contrast, hypertrophy is what occurs, for example, to skeletal muscle cells during weight training and steroid use and is simply an increase in the size of the cells.

Patients with type 1 HRS are usually ill, may have low blood pressure, and may require therapy with drugs to improve the strength of heart muscle contraction (inotropes) or other drugs to maintain blood pressure (vasopressors).

There is a suspicion that chronic hemolysis causing chronically depleted nitric oxide may lead to the development of pulmonary hypertension (increased pressure in the blood vessels supplying the lung), which in turn puts strain on the heart and causes heart failure.
