Questions afterload as driver of myocardial energetics in animal models; leaves open translation of diastolic volume law to clinical practice.
This basic science study demonstrates that aortic pressure does not independently determine energy liberation in cardiac contraction, supporting the diastolic volume law.
Moe et al. (1939) studied this question.
