High salt diet and prednisone administration will increase blood pressure which chronically causes heart muscle remodeling so that it appears macroscopically as left ventricular hypertrophy. Bay leaf extract contains flavonoids which can lower blood pressure and decrease left ventricular thickening. To determine the effect of bay leaf extract (Syzygiumpolyanthum) on the left ventricle thickening of rat heart (Rattus norvegicus wistar strain) in hypertensive model.  True experimental post-test only controls group design with simple random sampling technique. The subjects of this study were 25 male Wistar rats aged 2-3 months weighing 150-200 grams. Rats were induced with prednisone 1.5 mg/ KgBW / day in 2% NaCl for 6 weeks followed by administration of bay leaf extract at a dose of 70 mg/ KgBW, a dose of 140 mg/ KgBW, and a dose of 280 mg/ KgBW. Data analyzed by One Way ANOVA, Post Hoc Bonferroni, followed by Linear: One Way ANOVA test showed significant differences between treatments (p = 0.000). The Bonferroni Post Hoc test concluded that there were significant differences in the treatment of the P2 and P3 groups. Linear regression test obtained R square 0.663 and obtained the equation Y = 1965.838 - 1.275X. The extract of bay leaf (Syzygiumpolyanthum) has an effect on decreasing the left ventricle thickening of the white male rat heart (Rattus norvegicus wistar strain) hypertension model.

Despite worldwide use of anabolic steroids in last decades, there is still contradictory information about their acute influence on myocardium. The aim of this study was to examine the acute effects of nandrolone decanoate (ND) on cardiodynamics and coronary flow in isolated rat heart. The hearts of male Wistar albino rats (n = 48, 12 per group, age 8 weeks, body mass 180–200 g) were excised and perfused according to the Langendorff technique at gradually increased coronary perfusion pressures (40–120 cmH2O). After the control sets of experiments, the hearts in different groups were perfused with different doses of ND (1, 10, or 100 μmol/L separately). Using a sensor placed in the left ventricle, we registered maximum and minimum rate of pressure development in the left ventricle (dP/dtmax and dP/dtmin), systolic and diastolic left ventricular pressure (SLVP and DLVP), and heart rate (HR). Coronary flow (CF) was measured flowmetrically. The results clearly show the depression in cardiac function caused by higher doses of ND. The highest concentration of ND (100 μmol/L) induced the most deleterious impact on the myocardial function and perfusion of the heart (coronary circulation), which could be of clinical significance.

This research was conducted to determine the effectiveness test of papaya leaf extract with a concentration of 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80% and 90% and 100% against staphylococcus epidermidis bacteria. Staphylococcus epidermidis is a gram-positive bacterium in the form of cocci and is harmful to humans. This research was conducted with an experimental method with a post-test only design and sampling with a purposive sampling method. The investigation of the effectiveness of papaya leaf extract against staphylococcus epidermidis was done by diffusion using paper discs, namely by calculating the diameter of the bacterial inhibition zone of paper discs that have been moistened with papaya leaf extract. The results of this study were analyzed out with the One-Way ANOVA test followed by the Post Hoc Test. The test showed that there were significant differences from each treatment given with a 95% confidence index. The bacteria treated with papaya leaf extract 100% against staphylococcus epidermidis had the highest average inhibitory zone power compared to other concentrations of 14.97 mm. The papaya leaf extract 100% has the best antibacterial effect compared to other concentrations because the best inhibitory zone power is found on those extract concentrations.

Heart-lungs from intact rats were perfused with blood from intact rats (intact-intact preparations) or with blood from adrenalectomized rats (intact-adrenalectomized preparations). Left ventricular work index (LVWI) was employed to evaluate performance of the heart-lung and calculated as the product of cardiac output and mean arterial blood pressure. In confirmation of a previous report from this laboratory, LVWI was less for intact-adrenalectomized preparations than for intact-intact preparations. Aldosterone, added to perfusion blood from adrenalectomized rats to make a concentration of 2 x 10–3, 8 x 10–3 or 3.2 x 10–2 µg/100 ml, increased LVWI of the intact-adrenalectomized preparation to that of the intact-intact preparation. Extracts of plasma from intact rats, which may be expected to contain corticosteroids, were also capable of increasing LVWI of the intact-adrenalectomized preparation. Extracts of plasma from adrenalectomized rats were inactive.

Following aerobic exercise, sustained vasodilation and concomitant reductions in total peripheral resistance (TPR) result in a reduction in blood pressure that is maintained for two or more hours. However, the time course for postexercise changes in reflected wave amplitude and other indices of pulsatile load on the left ventricle have not been thoroughly described. Therefore, we tested the hypothesis that reflected wave amplitude is reduced beyond an hour after cycling at 60% V̇O2peak for 60 min. Aortic pressure waveforms were derived in 14 healthy adults (7 men, 7 women; 26 ± 3 yr) from radial pulse waves acquired via high-fidelity applanation tonometry at baseline and every 20 min for 120 min postexercise. Concurrently, left ventricle outflow velocities were acquired via Doppler echocardiography and pressure-flow analyses were performed. Aortic characteristic impedance (Zc), forward (Pf) and backward (Pb) pulse wave amplitude, reflected wave travel time (RWTT), and wasted pressure effort were derived. Reductions in aortic blood pressure, Zc, Pf, and Pb were all sustained postexercise while increases in RWTT emerged from 60-100 min post exercise (all P<0.05). WPE was reduced by ~40% from 40-100 min post exercise (all P<0.02). Stepwise multiple regression analysis revealed that the peak ∆WPE was associated with ∆RWTT (β=-0.57, P=0.003) and ∆Pb (β=0.52, P=0.006), but not ∆cardiac output, ∆TPR, ∆Zc, or ∆Pf. These results suggest that changes in pulsatile hemodynamics are sustained for ≥100 min following moderate intensity aerobic exercise. Moreover, decreased and delayed reflected pressure waves are associated with decreased left ventricular wasted effort after exercise.
