Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a common cardiac disease which leads to the deterioration in cardiac performance. A computational fluid dynamics (CFD) approach can be used to enhance our understanding of the disease, by providing us with... more
In severe pulmonary hypertension (SPH), prior studies have shown an increase in right ventricle (RV) uptake of glucose, but it is unclear if there is a change in the relative utilization of fatty acids. We hypothesized that in the RV in... more
Abstract: In the last decades cardiovascular diseases greatly increased worldwide, and bioengineering provided new technologies and cardiovascular prostheses to medical doctors and surgeons. Ventricular assist devices aroused notable... more
Embryonic cardiac development depends, in part, on the local biomechanical environment. Tracking the motions of microspheres attached to the embryonic chick ventricle, we computed two-dimensional epicardial strains at Hamburger-Hamilton... more
Background. Implementation of conduction system permanent pacing methods in patients with cardiac bradyarrhythmias allows to maintain the physiological sequence of excitation and contraction of the ventricles and to avoid the development... more
