Interventricular
Definition:
(a.) Between the ventricles; as, the interventricular partition of the heart.
Example Sentences:

(16) Although, both the mexiletine-quinidine combination and quinidine monotherapy prolonged refractoriness to a similar extent, the mexiletine-quinidine combination produced greater antiarrhythmic efficacy and prolonged interventricular conduction within the periinfarct zone to an extent greater than did quinidine alone.
(17) The histopathological study of this late one showed localized hemorrhage of the papillary muscles and interventricular septum.
(18) Coronary arteriography showed stenosis of the anterior interventricular artery and occlusion of the first diagonal artery; the other coronary vessels were normal.
(19) Patients with sickle cell anemia had a significantly greater mean left ventricular systolic dimension index, left ventricular diastolic dimension index, left ventricular mass, stroke volume index, interventricular septal width, aortic root index and left atrial index.
(20) Heart weights, including mean relative weights of the right and combined left ventricles and interventricular septa, were significantly greater in turkeys that died with PHS than in controls.
Ventricle
Definition:
(n.) A cavity, or one of the cavities, of an organ, as of the larynx or the brain; specifically, the posterior chamber, or one of the two posterior chambers, of the heart, which receives the blood from the auricle and forces it out from the heart. See Heart.
(n.) The stomach.
(n.) Fig.: Any cavity, or hollow place, in which any function may be conceived of as operating.
Example Sentences:
(1) This paper discusses the typical echocardiographic patterns of a variety of important conditions concerning the mitral valve, the left ventricle, the interatrial and interventricular septum as well as the influence of respiration on the performance of echocardiograms.
(2) A quadripolar catheter was positioned either at the site of earliest ventricular activation during induced monomorphic ventricular tachycardia or at circumscribed areas of the left ventricle.
(3) The origin of the aorta and pulmonary artery from the right ventricle is a complicated and little studied congenital cardiac malformation.
(4) Thus, mechanical restitution of the ventricle is a dynamic process that can be assessed using an elastance-based approach in the in situ heart.
(5) Defibrotide prevents the dramatic fall of creatine phosphokinase activity in the ischemic ventricle: metabolic changes which reflect changes in the cells affected by prolonged ischemia.
(6) Mitoses of nuclei of myocytes of the left ventricle of the heart observed in two elderly people who had died of extensive relapsing infarction are described.
(7) Gardner proposed that anomalies at the exit of the fourth ventricle produce a communicating syringomyelia.
(8) The authors report a case of epidermoid tumor of the lateral ventricle.
(9) It may, however, be useful to compare local wall dynamics in the more isometrically-contracting basal segment with those in the middle portion which brings about most of the emptying of the ventricle.
(10) Patients with MID, but not those with DAT, exhibited correlations between enlargement of the third and lateral ventricles and severity of cognitive impairment.
(11) Following injections of HRP into the apex of the heart, the sinoatrial (SA) nodal region and the ventral wall of the right ventricle, we observed that HRP-labeled sympathetic neurons were localized predominantly in the right stellate ganglia, and to a lesser extent, in the right superior and middle cervical ganglia, and left stellate ganglia.
(12) When histamine (5 micrograms) was injected into three different levels of the ventricular system, the magnitude and duration of the resulting increases in plasma epinephrine and glucose were in the following rank order: the third ventricle greater than aqueduct much greater than fourth ventricle.
(13) To find out whether the deeper inhibition of replicative activity in ventricular myocytes influences fibroblasts and endothelial cells from ventricles, the proliferative activity of non-muscle cells was studied.
(14) Rapid right ventricular pacing increased the extent and degree of dyskinesia of the left ventricle, but premedication with nicorandil improved the wall motion.

(17) Animals were chronically implanted with epidural or deep recording electrodes and a cannula in one lateral ventricle, and tested whilst seated in a primate chair.
(18) In acute experiments on 16 dogs the anterior descending branch of the left coronary artery was stenosed to produce a hypokinesia or dyskinesia of the anterior wall of the left ventricle.
(19) In spite of the limitations arising from the complex geometry of the right ventricule, echocardiography may be the most important non-invasive technique in the evaluation of the structural and functional repercussion of hypertension on the right ventricle.
(20) The length of the diaphragmatic wall of the heart in both the right and left ventricle was equal to the sum of the length of the inflow tract and the thickness of the ventricular wall at the apex.
