BackgroundUse of peripheral blood- or bone marrow-derived progenitors for ischemic heart repair is a feasible option to induce neo-vascularization in ischemic tissues. These cells, named Endothelial P
Chronic systolic heart failure (HF) is a prevalent and morbid disease with marked variability in its progression and response to therapies. The gut microbiome may play a role in pathophysiology and pr
Introduction: Computational modeling of cardiac mechanics and hemodynamics in ischemic heart disease (IHD) is important for a better understanding of the complex relations between ischemia-induced het
