| Abstract | Design-based stereology is employed to estimate total numbers of myocyte nuclei and mean myocyte volume per nucleus in ventricles of fetal and early postnatal human hearts. Organs were collected postmortem from subjects varying in age from 16 gestational wk to 40 postnatal wk. Numbers of myocyte nuclei per unit volume of ventricle were estimated using physical disectors (parallel pairs of sections). Absolute numbers were calculated by multiplying nuclear packing densities by ventricular volumes estimated from ventricular mass and tissue density. Volumes per nucleus were obtained via estimates of the combined volumes of all myocytes (or of the myocardium as a whole) and the numbers of myocyte nuclei. The findings showed that numbers of myocyte nuclei increase linearly from 16 wk towards term. They were also consistent with the notion that hyperplasia ceases abruptly at birth or soon afterwards. The net rate of production of myocyte nuclei was about 38 x 10(7)/wk (2.3 million nuclei/h). The total volume of myocytes continued to expand in the same way from 16 wk to at least 35 wk of gestation. Published studies on the incidence of binucleate myocytes during early postnatal growth of the ventricles of rats suggest that the volume of a myocyte doubles prior to nuclear division. Prenatal growth in the human heart is consistent with this mechanism. Myocardial hypertrophy after birth must occur by cellular hypertrophy without karyokinesis. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
