The ventricles must deliver enough blood to the body for the body to function normally. The amount of blood that is pumped depends on several factors. The most important factor is the rate of contraction of the heart (the heart rate). As the rate increases, more blood is pumped. The ...
Analysis of heart rate variation (HRV) has become a popular noninvasive tool for assessing the activities of the autonomic nervous system (ANS). HRV analysis is based on the concept that fast fluctuations may specifically reflect changes of sympathetic and vagal activity. It shows that the structu...
Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) enables assessment and quantification of morphological and functional parameters of the heart, including chamber size and function, diameters of the aorta and pulmonary arteries, flow and myocardial relaxation time
FSH is a type of pituitary hormone that is responsible for regulating the reproductive cycle in men and women. In assisted reproduction treatments, such as artificial insemination or in vitro fertilization, FSH drugs are used for controlled ovarian stimu

As such, we examined bedtime deviations as a potential risk factor for elevated RHR. This was accomplished through two research questions: RQ1—Are deviations in bedtimes, relative to one’s normal bedtime, associated with increases in resting heart rate? and RQ2—How long does one’s resting...

This value was within the normal reference range for men (49 to 115 g/m2) (35), who composed 66% of the CHARMES substudy population. The SENIORS (Study of Effects of Nebivolol Intervention on Outcomes and Rehospitalization in Seniors With Heart Failure) used the beta-blocker nebivolol in ...
