There's not much research specifically surrounding the muscle pump and its contribution to muscle growth. Still, there's a ...

If you're on a quest for hypertrophy, or maximum muscle growth, it's not just about lifting weights. Science shows that one ...

While previous studies suggest that the eccentric or lengthening phase of lifting yields the most muscle growth, a new study ...

Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is an abnormal thickening of the left ventricular myocardium that occurs as an adaptive mechanism to increased afterload. The left ventricular myocytes ...

Right ventricular hypertrophy occurs when the right ventricular wall thickens due to chronic pressure overload, similar to that of left ventricular hypertrophy. RVH is diagnosed on ECG in the ...

Cardiac hypertrophy is the abnormal enlargement, or thickening, of the heart muscle, resulting from increases in cardiomyocyte size and changes in other heart muscle components, such as ...

Another active area of research in the laboratory focuses on unraveling the mechanisms behind maladaptive, or pathological, and adaptive, or physiological, cardiac hypertrophy. In response to certain ...

Conclusions: RT induces larger increases in SM mass than in FFM. RT induced muscle hypertrophy does not occur uniformly throughout each individual muscle or region of the body. Therefore the ...

Aim Differentiating physiological cardiac hypertrophy from pathology is challenging when the athlete presents with extreme anthropometry. While upper normal limits exist for maximal left ventricular ...

A recent study validated new thresholds for left ventricular hypertrophy to improve both HCM diagnosis and timely treatment of HCM.

The following is a summary of “Role of glucocorticoid receptor expression in Chronic Chagas Cardiomyopathy: implications for ...
