As the majority of cardiovascular deaths are related to myocardial
ischemia, it is necessary to understand the various aspects of
ischemic heart disease. In this regard, it is noteworthy that
ischemic heart disease is commonly associated with atherosclerosis,
coronary spasm, as well as thrombosis leading to the development of
arrhythmias, cardiovascular cell damage, myocardial infarction,
cardiac hypertrophy and congestive heart failure. Furthermore, it
is also important to appreciate various physiological,
electrophysiological and biochemical processes in the normal heart
if we are to understand their significance under pathological
situations. Heart Function in Health and Disease has been organized
in five sections to provide an outline of a complex problem in a
convenient manner. One section of this book is devoted to shedding
light on the restructuring and ontogenic changes in the developing
heart whereas in the next section some hypertrophic alterations due
to chronic hypoxia are described. The third and fourth sections of
this book are concerned with the regulation of cardiac channels as
well as signal transduction mechanisms and cardiac electric field.
The fifth section contains some pathophysiological events during
the development of cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure. All of
these areas encompass a significant body of new information that
will be invaluable to those who work in the field of cardiovascular
sciences, as well as those who treat people with heart disease.
