Multiscale Mechanical Behavior of Large Arteries [PDF]

Encyclopedia of Biomedical Engineering, Elsevier, pp.180-202, 2019, 2019
The mechanical integrity of arteries is of prime importance, for a proper oxygen and nutrients delivery to all organs. To optimize their mechanical properties, healthy arteries exhibit a complex hierarchical microstructure which ensures a sufficient compliance at low stresses and which stiffens at higher stresses, preventing over-dilatation.

A case of pancreatic cancer with concomitant median arcuate ligament syndrome treated successfully using an allograft arterial transposition [PDF]

, 2015
An association of pancreatic cancer and median arcuate ligament syndrome (MALS) is a rare and challenging situation in terms of treatment. A 60-year-old man diagnosed with pancreatic cancer underwent laparotomy. A pancreaticoduodenectomy was planned, but

Detection and localization of Coronary Arterial Lesion with the Aid of Impedance Cardiography [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
In recent years, coronary artery disease is escalating and is likely to assume an epidemic proportion by 2030. Currently the reliable methods for detection of coronary arterial lesions are either conventional coronary angiogram (CAG) or MDCT (Multiple Detector Computed Tomography) coronary angiogram.

Coronary-Artery Bypass Surgery in Patients with Ischemic Cardiomyopathy.

New England Journal of Medicine, 2016
BACKGROUND The survival benefit of a strategy of coronary-artery bypass grafting (CABG) added to guideline-directed medical therapy, as compared with medical therapy alone, in patients with coronary artery disease, heart failure, and severe left ...

Upper arm versus forearm transcutaneous oximetry during upper limb abduction in patients with suspected thoracic outlet syndrome

Frontiers in Physiology, 2022
Context: Thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) is common among athletes and should be considered as being of arterial origin only if patients have “clinical symptoms due to documented symptomatic ischemia.” We previously reported that upper limb ischemia can be

Inflammatory Markers Associated With Subclinical Coronary Artery Disease: The Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study. [PDF]

, 2016
BackgroundDespite evidence for higher risk of coronary artery disease among HIV+ individuals, the underlying mechanisms are not well understood. We investigated associations of inflammatory markers with subclinical coronary artery disease in 923 ...

Classification of Pressure Gradient of Human Common Carotid Artery and Ascending Aorta on the Basis of Age and Gender [PDF]

International Journal of computer Applications, Volume 145, No.1, July 2016, 2017
The current work is done to see which artery has more chance of having cardiovascular diseases by measuring value of pressure gradient in the common carotid artery (CCA) and ascending aorta according to age and gender. Pressure gradient is determined in the CCA and ascending aorta of presumed healthy volunteers, having age between 10 and 60 years.

The superficial brachial artery : a case report [PDF]

, 1967
A superficial brachial artery is an anomalous branch of the brachial artery that runs superficial to the median nerve; it is usually associated with a deep brachial branch that runs deep to this nerve. A case is described of a superficial brachial artery.

Bilateral versus Single Internal‐Thoracic‐Artery Grafts at 10 Years

New England Journal of Medicine, 2019
BACKGROUND Multiple arterial grafts may result in longer survival than single arterial grafts after coronary‐artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery. We evaluated the use of bilateral internal‐thoracic‐artery grafts for CABG.

Coronary artery spasm : role in acute myocardial ischaemia [PDF]

, 1992
Coronary artery spasm is an accepted cause of transient myocardial ischaemia in patients with variant angina. The electrocardiographic abnormality, ST segment elevation, which is a hallmark of this syndrome, resembles that seen experimentally when the ...
