Behind the crest (crista terminalis) of the right atrium the internal surface is smooth. [1] Pectinate muscles make up the part of the wall in front of this, the right atrial appendage. [citation needed] In the left atrium, the pectinate muscles are confined to the inner surface of its atrial appendage. [1]
The crista terminalis provides the origin for the pectinate muscles. [citation needed] The sinoatrial node is located in the superior part of the crista terminalis at the junction of the right atrium, and superior vena cava. [2]: 60
The sinus venarum (also known as the sinus of the vena cava, or sinus venarum cavarum [1]) is the portion of the right atrium in the adult human heart [2] where the inner surface [3] of the right atrium is smooth, [2] [3] whereas the rest of the inner surface is rough [3] (trabeculated [2]) due to the presence of pectinate muscles. [4]
The terminal sulcus is a groove on the outer surface of the right atrium of the heart marking the transition between the sinus venarum cavarum (which has a distinct embryological origin) and the rest of the right atrium (which features pectinate muscles on its inner surface).
The right atrial appendage is a pouch-like extension of the right atrium and is covered by a trabecula network of pectinate muscles. The interatrial septum separates the right atrium from the left atrium; this is marked by a depression in the right atrium – the fossa ovalis. The atria are depolarised by calcium. [6]
Blackened Shrimp Bowls. Grain bowls are so versatile, and this blackened shrimp-based bowl is no exception.Filled with brown rice, seasoned blackened shrimp, a corn and red pepper salsa, and ...
The AV node receives two inputs from the right atrium: posteriorly, via the crista terminalis, and anteriorly, via the interatrial septum. [8] Contraction of heart muscle cells requires depolarization and repolarization of their cell membranes. Movement of ions across cell membranes causes these events.
From ancient history to the modern day, the clitoris has been discredited, dismissed and deleted -- and women's pleasure has often been left out of the conversation entirely. Now, an underground art movement led by artist Sophia Wallace is emerging across the globe to challenge the lies, question the myths and rewrite the rules around sex and the female body.
