Journal ArticleDOI
Developmental changes in energy substrate use by the heart
TL;DR: The metabolic differences that exist between immature and adult hearts may explain the observed differences in the ability of immature hearts to withstand hypoxaemia or ischaemia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Early and late results
TL;DR: Early primary intracardiac repair appears to be a satisfactory alternative in the treatment of neonates with persistent hypoxemia following balloon atrial septostomy with no evidence of systemic venous obstruction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plasma fatty acid levels in infants and adults after myocardial ischemia
Gary D. Lopaschuk,Ruth L. Collins-Nakai,Peter M. Olley,Terrence J. Montague,G. McNeil,M. Gayle,P. Penkoske,Barry A. Finegan +7 more
TL;DR: Because experimental studies have shown that high levels of fatty acids are detrimental to recovery of adult animal hearts, the effect of high fatty acid levels on reperfusion recovery of isolated working hearts from 1-day-old rabbits was determined.

TL;DR: In this paper, the in vivo metabolism of the gastrocnemius muscles of 22 CFS patients and 21 normal control subjects was compared during rest, graded dynamic exercise to exhaustion and recovery, using 31 P nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy to reflect minute-to-minute intracellular high energy phosphate metabolism.
