Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

The healthy adult human heart relies predominantly on fatty acid oxidation over glucose to meet its continuous, high energy demands.

The analysis

The retrieved literature consistently supports the well-established physiological principle that while immature fetal cardiomyocytes rely largely on glycolysis, the mature mammalian and human heart undergoes a metabolic shift to preferentially utilize fatty acids via beta-oxidation for the majority of its ATP production.

As cardiomyocytes mature during development, fatty acid beta-oxidation becomes a key energy source to meet the adult heart's high energy demand.
