vii Foreword The diagnosis and successful management of congenital heart disease rep- resents one of the greatest triumphs of cardiovascular medicine and surgery in the 20th century. As a consequence, the number of adults with congenital heart disease[r]
I expression. In their study, they suggested that MHC I antigen was transitory, disappearing as myoblasts fused and differentiated into multinucleate myotubes. However, for MHC II, Cifuentes-diaz et al. showed both myoblasts and myotubes expressed this surface maker. The discrepanc[r]

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of blindness in the elderly in Western Countries. Evidence indicates that Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency, a common genetic abnormality, may protect against ischemic heart and cerebrovascular disease, ocular vascular dis[r]

The histologic picture of peripartum cardiomyopathy involves non - specifi c cellular hypertrophy, degeneration, fi brosis, and increased lipid deposition. Many reports have documented the presence of a diffuse myocarditis and currently more evidence exists for myocarditis as a c[r]
homocysteine An artery-damaging amino acid produced as a normal by-product of amino acid breakdown. Homocysteine comes from the essen- tial amino acid, METHIONINE, as it is broken down to form CYSTEINE, another sulfur-containing amino acid. Unlike methionine and cysteine, homocys- teine is n[r]

Subjects and methods: Sixty patients with ischemic heart disease who underwent coronary angiography and intravascular ultrasonography before and after percutaneous[r]
Drosophila model is the ability to combine mutant alleles of almost any gene with tissue- specific expression of fluorescently labeled markers. Thus, heart development can be studied in great detail at the organ or even the cellular level, permitting the role of individual genes to be exam[r]

The risk of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), an autoimmune disease, in the elderly population increases along with that of atherosclerosis, cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, and Alzheimer’s disease. Identifying specific biomarkers for RA can clarify the underlying molecular mechanisms and can aid d[r]
Heart failure happens when a disease affects the heart's ability to deliver enough blood to the body's tissues. Often, a person with heart failure may have a buildup of fluid in the tissues, called edema. Heart failure with this kind of fluid buildup is called co[r]
In one kind of heart disease, fatty stuff called plaque builds up in blood vessels going to the heart.. Aerobic exercise also makes the heart and lungs stronger.[r]
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is an established complication of diabetes mellitus. In West Virginia, the especially high incidence of diabetes and heart failure validate the necessity of developing new strategies for earlier detection of DCM.

Because DPN is a complex disease of multifactorial etiology, a randomly chosen population of patients with this condition are likely to be heterogenous not only with respect to the form and severity of neuropathy but also with respect to the type of dia- betes and other risk fac[r]
