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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
