Scientists have discovered that the human heart has a previously unknown ability to repair itself under certain conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Read the article to know more about how this discovery could pave the way for new therapies for heart diseases, focusing on activating these natural regenerative processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vocabulary Questions:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. What does “standard-of-care”<\/strong> mean? “Standard-of-care<\/strong> for patients with advanced heart failure is a surgically implanted pump that helps propel blood, a so-called left ventricular assist device (LVAD).” <\/em>Use it in a sentence. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. What does “radioactivity” <\/strong>mean? “For every following year, there is a little less radioactivity<\/strong> in newly formed cells, which means that they can be ‘dated’.” <\/em> Use it in a sentence. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. What does “date” <\/strong>mean here, “For every following year, there is a little less radioactivity in newly formed cells, which means that they can be ‘dated<\/strong>‘.”? <\/em>Use it in a sentence. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Discussion Questions:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. Did you know our hearts might have the ability to repair themselves naturally? How do you think this discovery could change heart disease treatments?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. What do you think triggers the heart to activate its self-repair mechanisms, and can we use that knowledge to help patients?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. How important do you think it is to focus on natural regenerative processes compared to using medical interventions like surgeries?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. If our hearts have hidden repair abilities, could similar discoveries be made about other organs? Which organ would you hope scientists study next?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
