Heart disease is often associated with blocked arteries or heart attacks, but not all heart conditions develop the same way.

After birth, the human heart loses its regenerative capacity almost completely. Damage to the heart muscle—for example, due to a heart attack—therefore usually leads to a permanent loss of function in ...

Researchers at UNSW Sydney have developed a fully synthetic soft robotic heart that reproduces the complex movements and ...

"Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a complex heart condition that often occurs alongside other health problems such as high blood pressure, irregular heartbeats, kidney disease ...

A new gene therapy can reverse the effects of heart failure and restore heart function in a large animal model. The therapy increases the amount of blood the heart can pump and dramatically improves ...

Researchers mapped 442,239 single nuclei from nonfailing human hearts to chart how cardiac cells change from fetal ...

Researchers at the Nora Eccles Harrison Cardiovascular Research and Training Institute, University of Utah, and the University of Utah School of Medicine, have demonstrated that a gene therapy can ...

Lower cardiac output has been tied to poorer cerebral blood flow (CBF) in the temporal lobes of older adults without heart failure, a finding that adds to a growing body of research linking heart ...

Getting prompt and effective heart attack treatment may help you avoid complications that can affect brain functions such as memory, focus, and decision making. A heart attack can damage the brain ...
