1 People in advanced stages of the disease are more likely to have symptoms related to chronic liver disease, such as fluid in the abdomenâalso called ascitesâand mental confusion. Women may stop having menstrual periods.

Coordinated contractions of cardiac muscle cells in the heart propel blood out of the atria and ventricles to the blood vessels of the left/body/systemic and right/lungs/pulmonary circulatory systems. This complex mechanism illustrates systole of the heart.nother histological difference between cardiac muscle and skeletal muscle is that the T-tubules in the cardiac muscle are bigger and wider and track laterally to the Z-discs. There are fewer T-tubules in comparison with skeletal muscle.
