Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Conference Paper Description
It is well-established that ventricular hypertrophy is a transitional phase through the development of heart failure. A hypertrophic heart can remodel to compensate the loss of pump function, but it eventually becomes incapable of working efficiently, leading to heart failure. Many heart failure patients have preserved pump function (e.g. normal ejection fraction), but increased LV wall thickness and sometimes increased LV mass, which can mask a decrease in contractility. Alterations in the myofibre structure and myocardial material properties can potentially account for the progression of heart failure. We have developed a canine LV finite element model to investigate the effect of ventricular size, myocardial passive material properties, and cardiac contractility on the LV mechanical performance. By comparing mechanical function of normal and abnormal LVs, due to dilation and/or loss of anisotropy and/or reduced contractility, we found that dilation and compromised muscle contractility decreased most indices of cardiac performance. This modelling framework provides insight into the underlying mechanisms of heart failure. © 2010 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
