Key result

The absolute heart weight of mature rams is 208.4±9.82 g, and the largest cardiomyocyte volume is found in the left ventricle (3982.99±423.96 μm3).

Why the study?

Cardiovascular diseases are leading causes of animal mortality, making morphological studies across cellular, tissue, and organ levels essential for clinical cardiology and in vivo ultrasound diagnosis.

Population

5 sexually mature clinically healthy domestic sheep (rams)

Design

Morphological, histological, and morphometric study

Horalskyi et al. (2023) conducted an observational in Healthy (n=5). Anatomical and histological assessment was evaluated on Absolute heart weight and cardiomyocyte volume. The absolute heart weight of mature rams is 208.4±9.82 g, and the largest cardiomyocyte volume is found in the left ventricle (3982.99±423.96 μm3).
