It found that the quality of patients' marriages predicted their recoveries as well as the pumping ability of their hearts.
These would be universal, and could therefore be taken off the shelf and injected into the portion of a damaged heart to restore its pumping ability.
For example, until today, Mr. Cheney's doctors had refused to provide a key measure of his heart function, the ejection fraction, a measure of the heart's pumping ability, which is normally 50percentto70percentcent.
The patients took the drug for at least a year; in 49 women, or 28percentthetheartart lost some of its pumping ability, usually while they were still taking the drug.
The right ventricle's pumping ability is acutely reduced, and, therefore, the amount of blood available for the left side of the heart is also restricted, so that systemic circulatory failure occurs.
It's a small study, but the early results are hitting the right notes: dramatic and long-lasting improvement in pumping ability, and better quality of life.
A significant increase of the wall retention ratio was also observed which resulted from the outstanding D particles pumping ability of flowing liquid lithium limiters.
On average, injected stem cells improved the heart's pumping ability by just 3-4%, and they didn't prevent further heart attacks, produce new blood vessels, or actually save lives.
As observed in Fig. 6, the thickening time of cement slurry can be controlled to about 150 min when dosages of ADM were 0.2 1.2 %, showing a stable thickening property of cement slurry which is necessary for keeping the pumping ability of cement slurry.
Therefore, we derived a composite measure of pharynx pump rate over lifetime, which we refer to as lifetime pumping ability (LPA).
The device helps maintain the pumping ability of a heart that cannot work effectively on its own.
