...) in fibre type distribution, MyHC (myosin heavy chain) expression or fibre CSA (cross-sectional area) between the two groups. There were, however, significant differences ( P <0.05) in CC/F (capillary contact/fibre), C/F (capillary to fibre ratio) and cytochrome c oxidase activity. The HD group had 33...

... tissue fluid economy. Therefore, possible definitions of heart failure include an abnormality of cardiac performance which leads to disruption of micro- vascular function . The clinical features are then explained in terms of inadequate flow in nutritive capillaries, leading to organ dysfunction...
