The Ca <sup>2+</sup> -Sensitivity of Contraction is Increased in the Left Atrium and Left Ventricle of Patients with Ischemic Heart Failure
2026-07-01
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Ischemic heart failure (IHF) has been shown to impair contractility and disrupt sarcomere function in the left ventricle. Left ventricular failure can cause left atrial dysfunction, which is associated with a greater risk of patient mortality. Despite this, the biochemical and biomechanical characteristics of the left atrium in IHF remain obscure. <h4>Methods</h4> Myocardial mechanical proper...
