Because breathlessness during activities of daily living is the most frequent complaint of patients with HFPEF, we hypothesised that lung function may be often abnormal in these patients due to either a direct effect of HFPEF and/or shared risk factors. In this study we explore the frequency, ...
Aims/hypothesis The aim of this study was to assess the associations of lung function with insulin resistance and Type2 diabetes. Methods We did a cross-sectional study of 3911 women who were 60 to 79 years old from 23 British towns, assessing the association of measures of lung function wit...
This diagram shows a longitudinal section from an adult avian heart from Lu et al. (1993a). This diagram illustrates the basic structure of the avian heart with the relative thicknesses of atria (RA and LA) and ventricles (RV and LV). The ventricles are relatively thicker than the atria,...

Non-coding RNA has been shown to participate in numerous biological and pathological processes and has attracted increasing attention in recent years. Recent studies have demonstrated that long non-coding RNA and micro RNA can interact through various me
Figure 61.1.A diagram illustrating the common pathophysiological mechanisms involved in the “vicious cycle” of heart failure progression. Noninvasive imaging has several implications in the diagnostics and management of patients with heart failure [10]. Diagnosis of heart failure should always be based...
