No one can live without a heart pumping blood to the rest of the body. New research from the University of Missouri School of Medicine reveals more information about this vital function and how it’s ...

A mouse study of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) found male-female differences at the cellular level. The findings could have implications for how HFpEF is treated in women ...

Heart attacks and strokes - the leading causes of death in human beings - are fundamentally blood clots of the heart and brain. Better understanding how the blood-clotting process works and how to ...

Understanding the physics of clot contraction could potentially lead to new ways to treat bleeding problems and clotting problems. Heart attacks and strokes -- the leading causes of death in human ...

A team of researchers have discovered that a mutation in a ribosomal protein found specifically in heart and skeletal muscle leads to impaired cardiac contractility in mice. The mutation was found to ...
