The present study on canine left ventricles showed that Emax which we previously proposed as a good index of both ventricular contractility and its pumping capability, decreased from 2.06 to 1.38 kPa/ml (15.5 to 10.4 mmHg/ml) via the sino-aortic baroreceptor reflex. Cerebral ischaemic response increased Emax to 3.83 kPa/ml (28.8 mmHg/ml). Emax decreased to 1.17 kPa/ml (8.8 mmHg/ml) after cardiac denervation.

Pathological left ventricular remodeling is a complex process following an acute myocardial infarction, leading to architectural disorganization of the cardiac tissue. This phenomenon is characterized by sterile inflammation and the exaggerated development of fibrotic tissue, which is non-contractile and poorly conductive, responsible for organ dysfunction and heart failure. At present, specific therapies are lacking for both prevention and treatment of this condition, and no biomarkers are currently validated to identify at-risk patients.

Objective: To investigate the effects and mechanisms of miRNA 221 on myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury (MIRI) in mice through the regulation of phospholamban (PLB) expression.
Methods: The MIRI mouse model was created and mice were divided into sham, MIRI, MIRI+ 221, and MIRI+ scr groups, with miRNA 221 overexpression induced in the myocardium of MIRI mice by targeted myocardial injection. Quantitative RT-PCR analysis was performed to observe the variation in miRNA 221, PLB, SERCA2, RYR2, NCX1, Cyt C and caspase 3 mRNA levels in myocardium, while Western blot assessed the levels of PLB, p-PLB (Ser16), p-PLB (Thr17), SERCA2, RYR2, NCX1, Cyt C and caspase 3 proteins.
Interleukin-10 exhibit dose-dependent effects on macrophage phenotypes and cardiac remodeling after myocardial infarction.

Introduction: Interleukin-10 (IL-10) is a potent immunomodulatory cytokine widely explored as a therapeutic agent for diseases, including myocardial infarction (MI). High-dose IL-10 treatment may not achieve expected outcomes, raising the question of whether IL-10 has dose-dependency, or even uncharted side-effects from overdosing. We hypothesized that IL-10 has dose-dependent effects on macrophage (Mφ) phenotypic transition and cardiac remodeling after MI.

Valvular heart disease (VHD) leading to inadequate hemodynamic circulation is a major cause of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality worldwide. Right ventricular-pulmonary artery (RV-PA) coupling integrates the ability of RV contractility to adapt to increased pulmonary arterial afterload. If the right ventricle cannot adapt to the elevated afterload by increasing its contractile function, RV-PA uncoupling occurs.

Introduction: Decreased left atrial appendage emptying velocity (LAAV) is a marker for thrombus formation. This study evaluates the association between LAAV and inflammatory indices in non-valvular atrial fibrillation (AF) patients.
Methods: The study population was 1428 patients with AF, 875 of whom enrolled.
