Evaluation of Physiological Intracranial Calcifications in Children Using Computed Tomography [PDF]

Serbian Journal of Experimental and Clinical Research, 2022
Abstract Physiological intracranial calcifications have an increasing prevalence with the age and can be found in both children and in adults. These calcifications are basically asymptomatic and their presence can only be noticed through neuro-imaging.

Vascular Calcification and Stone Disease: A New Look towards the Mechanism

Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2015
Calcium phosphate (CaP) crystals are formed in pathological calcification as well as during stone formation. Although there are several theories as to how these crystals can develop through the combined interactions of biochemical and biophysical factors,

Mutations in ENPP1 are associated with 'idiopathic' infantile arterial calcification

, 2003
Idiopathic infantile arterial calcification (IIAC; OMIM 208000) is characterized by calcification of the internal elastic lamina of muscular arteries and stenosis due to myointimal proliferation.

Octacalcium phosphate crystals directly stimulate expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase through p38 and JNK mitogen-activated protein kinases in articular chondrocytes [PDF]

, 2005
Basic calcium phosphate (BCP) crystals, including hydroxyapatite, octacalcium phosphate (OCP) and carbonate-apatite, have been associated with severe osteoarthritis and several degenerative arthropathies.

Arterial calcification and bone physiology: role of the bone–vascular axis [PDF]

Nature Reviews Endocrinology, 2012
Bone never forms without vascular interactions. This simple statement of fact does not adequately reflect the physiological and pharmacological implications of the relationship. The vasculature is the conduit for nutrient exchange between bone and the rest of the body.

Assessment of age, gender, and anxiety on ECG waveform morphology in a large population of domestic dogs

Scientific Reports, 2022
Cardiovascular diseases are major causes of death in the western world and this incidence increases in the elderly population. With aging, there are physiologic changes to the cardiac structure secondary to adipose tissue deposition, calcification of ...
