In this regard, it is noteworthy that  ischemic heart disease is commonly associated with atherosclerosis,  coronary spasm, as well as thrombosis leading to the development of  arrhythmias, cardiovascular cell damage, myocardial infarction,  cardiac hypertrophy and congestive heart failure. Furthermore, it is  also important to appreciate various physiological,  electrophysiological and biochemical processes in the normal heart if  we are to understand their significance under pathological situations.  \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cem\u003eHeart Function in Health and Disease\u003c\/em\u003e has been organized in five  sections to provide an outline of a complex problem in a convenient  manner. One section of this book is devoted to shedding light on the  restructuring and ontogenic changes in the developing heart whereas in  the next section some hypertrophic alterations due to chronic hypoxia  are described. The third and fourth sections of this book are  concerned with the regulation of cardiac channels as well as signal  transduction mechanisms and cardiac electric field. The fifth section  contains some pathophysiological events during the development of  cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure. All of these areas encompass a  significant body of new information that will be invaluable to those  who work in the field of cardiovascular sciences, as well as those who  treat people with heart disease. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1993-01-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792320524\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4615-3090-9\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 335\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45578451320972,"sku":"9780792320524","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792320524.jpg?v=1771513480","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780792320524","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
