Any process that activates, maintains or increases the frequency, rate or extent of cardiac muscle growth. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of cardiac muscle growth. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of cardiac muscle growth. The expansion of a cardiac muscle cell population by cell division. The process whose specific outcome is the progression of cardiac muscle over time, from its formation to the mature structure. The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the heart over time, from its formation to the mature structure. The heart is a hollow, muscular organ, which, by contracting rhythmically, keeps up the circulation of the blood. Any process specifically pertinent to the functioning of integrated living units: cells, tissues, organs, and organisms. A process is a collection of molecular events with a defined beginning and end. The enlargement or overgrowth of all or part of the heart muscle due to an increase in size of cardiac muscle cells without cell division. This process contributes to the developmental growth of the heart. The increase in size or mass of an organ. Organs are commonly observed as visibly distinct structures, but may also exist as loosely associated clusters of cells that function together as to perform a specific function. The developmental growth of cardiac muscle tissue that contributes to the shaping of the heart. The process whose specific outcome is the progression of a striated muscle over time, from its formation to the mature structure. Striated muscle contain fibers that are divided by transverse bands into striations, and cardiac and skeletal muscle are types of striated muscle. Skeletal muscle myoblasts fuse to form myotubes and eventually multinucleated muscle fibers. The fusion of cardiac cells is very rare and can only form binucleate cells. The increase in size or mass of an entire organism, a part of an organism or a cell. The increase in size or mass of a cardiac muscle, where the increase in size or mass has the specific outcome of the progression of the organism over time from one condition to another. The increase in size or mass of the heart.
