About fatima
Fatima Ryalat serves as Assistant Professor of Physiology in the Department of Physiology and Biochemistry at the School of Medicine, University of Jordan. She earned her MD from the Faculty of Medicine, University of Jordan, and completed her PhD through the Integrated Physiology and Pharmacology program at Wake Forest University School of Medicine. During her doctoral studies in Dr. Debra I. Diz's Hypertension and Vascular Biology laboratory, Ryalat investigated sex differences in the impacts of chronic muscadine grape extract treatment on cardiac function parameters and aortic pulse wave velocity in hypertensive transgenic (mRen2)27 rats. Utilizing transthoracic echocardiography with the Vevo LAZR 2100 system, her research revealed that muscadine grape extract significantly reduced aortic pulse wave velocity by 36% in treated males compared to controls, independent of blood pressure alterations, while showing lesser effects in females. This work was funded by the Chronic Disease Fund and a University of Jordan Scholarship.
Ryalat's academic interests encompass cardiovascular physiology, hypertension, arterial stiffness, cardiac function, blood pressure regulation, pulse wave analysis, preclinical cardiovascular imaging in rat models using Vevo LAZR ultrasound, autonomic nervous system physiology, nutraceuticals, neurophysiology, and medical education. As Cardiovascular System (CVS) Course Coordinator, she facilitates the integration of clinical competencies in undergraduate medical training. Her scholarly output includes publications such as 'Modifications and Optimization of an Autologous Intracerebral Hemorrhage Rat Model' (2024), 'Performing the Garcia Score for Accuracy and Reliability' (2024), 'Cardiometabolic Disease Results in Sex- and Age-Dependent Cerebrovascular Degeneration and Arteriolar Morphological Changes' (2021), 'Muscadine Grape Extract Improves Arterial Stiffness in Hypertensive (mRen2)27 Female Rats' (2018), and 'Investigating the landscape of cognitive enhancers use among future physicians: Findings from a developing Middle Eastern country' (2025). She contributes to medical education through lectures on vascular hemodynamics, somatic sensations, neural signaling, and special senses including smell and taste.
