Cardiovascular response to exercise

Part 1: Cellular-level dynamics and ventricular function: Myocardial metabolism and exercise Ventricular function in experimental animals: Response to exercise Exercise and ventricular function in humans Doppler echocardiographic assessment of left ventricular flow systolic and diastolic flow during exercise Part 2: Genetic, biochemical, and physiological responses of the heart to factors related to chronic exercise: Molecular control of muscle growth Exercise-associated mechanical loading Heart rate effects on the myocardium A synthesis of isolated factors into a chronic exercise pattern Part 3: Systemic responses to exercise and results of training: Blood pressure response to resistive and dynamic exercise Adaptation of the coronary circulation to exercise training Blood volume response to training High altitude effects on exercise training Part 4: Exercise as a trigger of onset of acute cardiovascular disease: Triggering of onset of myocardial infarction and sudden death Sudden cardiac death during jogging Relative risk of morning versus evening exercise Relative risk of myocardial infarction during jogging Part 5: Modification of cardiovascular risk by exercise: Cardiovascular "fitness" versus cardiovascular disease Exercise, lipoproteins, and cardiovascular disease Endurance exercise and coronary artery bone Genetic determinants of cardiovascular "fitness" and response to exercise Part 6: Clinical Applications: Exercise and the failing heart Magnetic resonance imaging Effects of aging on the cardiovascular response to exercise Exercise echocardiography to assess left ventricular size and performance Practical guidelines for exercise in patients with normal left ventricular function
