The biochemical basis of myocardial failure

Hospital Practice
R J Bing

Abstract

Cardiac failure can begin with metabolic disturbances within the myocardial cell--in the mitochondria, contractile proteins, or other cellular organelles. It also can result from faulty adrenergic regulation of contraction. New technology is making it possible to synthesize the contributing factors into a clinical model that will greatly enhance our understanding of these mechanisms.

Cardiomyopathy

Cardiomyopathy is a disease of the heart muscle, that can lead to muscular or electrical dysfunction of the heart. It is often an irreversible disease that is associated with a poor prognosis. There are different causes and classifications of cardiomyopathies. Here are the latest discoveries pertaining to this disease.
