Efficacy and safety of oral pulmonary vasodilators in pulmonary veno‐occlusive disease
Pulmonary veno‐occlusive disease (PVOD) or pulmonary capillary hemangiomatosis (PCH) is a rare subtype of pulmonary hypertension with dismal prognosis.

Retinal oxygen supply shaped the functional evolution of the vertebrate eye
The retina has a very high energy demand but lacks an internal blood supply in most vertebrates. Here we explore the hypothesis that oxygen diffusion limited the evolution of retinal morphology by reconstructing the evolution of retinal thickness and the

Modeling of water rising in systems of cylindrical capillaries of different radii
The promotion of water in the systems of cylindrical capillaries is studied in detail. A mathematical model of the water movement in both symmetric and asymmetric capillaries connected to a vertical capillary is built.

Background Normal brain function depends on the ability of the vasculature to increase blood flow to regions with high metabolic demands. Impaired neurovascular coupling, such as the local hyperemic response to neuronal activity, may contribute to poor ...

An unusual presentation of Goodpasture syndrome
Goodpasture disease is an anti–glomerular basement membrane (anti-GBM) disease that manifests as progressive glomerulopathy and alveolar hemorrhage. Our case was a 68-year-old female who presented with decompensated liver disease (DCLD) with no prior ...

Structural Microangiopathies in Skeletal Muscle Related to Systemic Vascular Pathologies in Humans
It is unclear how microangiopathic changes in skeletal muscle vary among systemic vascular pathologies. We therefore analyzed the capillary fine structure in skeletal muscle from patients with arterial hypertension (HYPT), diabetes mellitus type 2 (T2DM)

Leukocyte margination in alveolar capillaries: Interrelationship with functional capillary geometry and microhemodynamics [PDF]
The pulmonary capillary microvasculature harbors a large pool of intravascularly marginated leukocytes. In this study, we investigated the interrelationship of leukocyte margination with characteristics of functional capillary geometry and ...
