Analysis of local hemodynamics in central and peripheral arteries [PDF]
, 2013 This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University.To understand the function of the cardiovascular system, the propagation of waves in arteries has to be investigated, since they carry information which can

Beta1 subunits enable fentanyl-induced BK channel activation and opioid regulation of cerebral artery diameter. [PDF]
FEBS Open BioDuring the current opioid crisis, the majority of overdose deaths are attributed to ultra‐potent synthetic opioids, such as fentanyl. While fentanyl exerts its action via opioid receptors, we propose that potassium channels in the brain blood vessels may also sense fentanyl.

Resolution of peripheral artery catheter-induced ischemic injury in infants -Two case reports- [PDF]
Korean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2010 The occurrence of catheter-induced vasospasm of small caliber arteries is a well known complication of arterial catheterization in neonates. However, there is rare publication about these complications in infants.

The role of large arteries in controlling blood flow to the hand during severe local cooling. [PDF]
, 1995 PhDCold vasodilatation describes the increase in blood flow that follows initial vaso constriction when an extremity is exposed to an environment colder than 12'C. It appears to be due mainly to cold paralysis of local resistance vessels.

Determination of wave speed and distensibility of flexible tubes using diameter and velocity [PDF]
, 2009 It is well accepted that wave speed is one of the key factors describing wave propagation in arteries. Local wave speed is directly related to the mechanical properties of the arterial wall and is widely used to determine the arterial distensibility ...

Bronchial artery aneurysms and bronchial artery-pulmonary artery fistula [PDF]
European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2012 A 57-year old woman presented with intermittent swallowing discomfort for 3 months. A computed tomography (CT) angiography showed a mediastinal bronchial arterial aneurysm, a widening of the bronchial artery tortuously, a right hilar mass and anomalous communication between the bronchial and pulmonary arteries (Fig. 1A–D).
