Comparative studies in experimental hypertension and cardiac failure

2000-01-01

Abstract excerpt

The common theme of this thesis is the characterisation of cardiac and vascular hypertrophy in animal models of cardiovascular disease. The pathophysiology of hypertension, left ventricular hypertrophy and heart failure are discussed, with particular emphasis on cardiac and vascular alterations in animal models. Echocardiography was validated for use in rats, and applied to a genetic model of hypertension, the str...
