The World Heart Congress with a focus on "Frontiers in Cardiovascular Health" held in Winnipeg during July 6-11, 2001, made a unique attempt to bring these specialists together to brainstorm and map out the course of action for cardiovascular research and health in the next century.

The Frontiers in Cardiovascular Health varies between and within nations, depend ing upon the level at which the battle is fought for better cardiovascular health. For example many of the African countries spend less than $10 per person per year on his/her entire health care let alone cardiovascular health.

The relationship between angiotensin II and hypertension was established in 1898 when angiotensin II was shown to modulate systemic blood pressure.

Pathophysiology of Cardiovascular Disease has been divided into four sections that focus on heart dysfunction and its associated characteristics (hypertrophy, cardiomyopathy and failure);

Current evidence suggests that the ischemic preconditioning response is a multi-factorial process consisting of an initial early trigger, an intermediate mediator, and an end effector.

Cellular signaling in cardiac muscle refers to the myriad of stimuli and responses that direct and control the physiological operation of this organ. In response to a chronic increase in workload, cardiac muscle cells can dramatically increase in size to face their increasing contractile demands.

Deals with atherosclerosis, hypertension, and diabetes. This title discusses nutritional intervention, cholesterol lowering agents, lipids themselves, protein modification by ADP-ribose, bone marrow study, endothelial cell dysfunction, angiotensin, and the role of infection and inflammation in the context of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.

Progress in the field of pathogenesis, prevention and therapy of ischemic heart disease has resulted in a marked decline in mortality in the Western World. This title is based upon a symposium in Tokyo on the subject. It includes information concerning the concepts of ischemia-reperfusion injury.
