COURSE XI: The Heart of Matters

Course XI starts by taking a fresh look at the ‘the-heart-as-a-pump’ model. The critical role of the glycocalyx is then explored, this being key to the health of the vast flood plains of the microcirculation. We then dedicate ourselves to understanding common disease manifestations, including atheroma formation, heart attacks, heart failure, strokes and peripheral vascular disease. The controversy behind the roles of lipids and cholesterol are unpacked in depth, offering a detailed understanding of blood lipids and their laboratory interpretation. Finally, we study the clotting cascade, insulin resistance and nutritional deficiencies, all having a role in the pathophysiology of cardiovascular disease. With this understanding of the key contributing factors, different pathways are laid out to help mend our broken hearts.
