Myocardial Ischemia and Lipid Metabolism

Myocardial Ischemia and Lipid Metabolism edited by R. Ferrari.

Over the past years, the thrust of research in cardiology has been toward an understanding of the engineering of the heart as a pump that transports blood to the various organs of the body. More recently, the fields of biochemistry and biophysics have come to influence heart research. The modern car...
