Microstructural non-linear finite-element analysis of rat myocardium with hydrogel biomaterial inclusions
… have yielded positive results in improving cardiac function and reducing adverse ventricular remodelling post-MI. These therapies have also recently entered phase I and II human clinical trials, with limited positive results, but no significant adverse effects. Computational modelling has …

The effects of magnesium treatment on short-term changes in heart rate variability, ventricular function and lipid profile in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats
… cardiovascular complications including cardiac autonomic neuropathy, ventricular dysfunction and dyslipidaemia, which are dependent on the duration and severity of the diabetes. Most complications are identified at a late, irreversible stage following long-standing diabetes; therefore, …

Novel Phenotyping of the Myocardium by Diffusion Tensor Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance
… technique informing about myocardial microstructure, including cardiomyocytes and sheetlets. Few in-vivo human studies exist. This research aims to investigate microstructural changes in disease and assess the utility of DT-CMR as a novel phenotyping tool. Methods Biphasic DT-CMR was …

The Direct Impact of Trimethelamine-N-Oxide on Cardiac Function
… the second chapter, the direct impact of TMAO on cardiac function was tested in vivo using wild-type C57B6L mice model. Four experiment groups were enrolled in the feeding protocol, which included 3w (different time points), 6w, and 13w feeding time to reveal the impact of short and longer periods …
