Severe orthostatic hypotension due to unilateral carotid artery dissection
A 46-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital with mild right-sided hemiparesis and orthostatic hypotension. Magnetic resonance angiography of the neck showed stenosis of the left distal carotid sinus surrounded by intraluminal hyperintensities on ...

Responses to stimulation of coronary and carotid baroreceptors and the coronary chemoreflex at different ventricular distending pressures in anaesthetised dogs [PDF]
Stimulation of left ventricular mechanoreceptors was believed not only to exert important effects on the circulation, but also to influence the responses to baroreceptor reflexes.

Variations in carotid sinus anatomy and their relevance to carotid interventions.
BACKGROUND The carotid sinus (CS) is a dilatation in the carotid bifurcation usually at the origin of proximal internal carotid artery (ICA). It contains baroreceptors which influence blood pressure. Variations in the location of the CS are of importance

Neural regulation of cardiovascular response to exercise: role of central command and peripheral afferents [PDF]
During dynamic exercise, mechanisms controlling the cardiovascular apparatus operate to provide adequate oxygen to fulfill metabolic demand of exercising muscles and to guarantee metabolic end-products washout.

Carotico-cavernous fistula - From the eye of an ophthalmologist
Carotid-cavernous fistulas (CCFs) are spontaneous or acquired abnormal connections between the cavernous sinus and the carotid arterial system. It can be a direct connection between the cavernous segment of the internal carotid artery and the cavernous ...

Imaging for endoscopic sinus surgery in adults [PDF]
Computerized tomography (CT) offers the gold standard in terms of imaging the extent of disease and the fine detailed anatomy, both pre-requisites to the safe practice of endoscopic sinus surgery. Neither plain X-rays nor magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)

Absence of reflex vascular responses from the intrapulmonary circulation in anaesthetised dogs [PDF]
The aim of this investigation was to determine whether reflex cardiovascular responses were obtained to localised distension of the intrapulmonary arterial and venous circulations in a preparation in which the stimuli to other major reflexogenic areas ...

Unilateral Direct Carotid Cavernous Fistula Causing Bilateral Ocular Manifestation
Unilateral carotid cavernous fistula presents with ipsilateral ocular findings. Bilateral presentation is only seen in bilateral fistulas, usually associated with indirect (dural) carotid cavernous fistulas.
