Lack of morphometric evidence for ventricular compaction in humans

In conclusion, compaction in human development is not supported while rapid intrinsic growth of the compact wall is supported in all species. If compaction takes place, it likely plays a much smaller role in determining wall architecture than intrinsic growth of the compact wall.PMID:33840532 | DOI:10.1016/j.jjcc.2021.03.006
