The cerebral circulation and cerebrovascular disease II: Pathogenesis of cerebrovascular disease [PDF]
In this paper, we review the cerebral circulation and cerebrovascular disease (CVD) with an overview of the major types of CVD pathogenesis. These, as categorized here, are as follows: occlusive injury intrinsic to blood vessels, occlusive injury ...

From time-series to complex networks: Application to the cerebrovascular flow patterns in atrial fibrillation [PDF]
A network-based approach is presented to investigate the cerebrovascular flow patterns during atrial fibrillation (AF) with respect to normal sinus rhythm (NSR). AF, the most common cardiac arrhythmia with faster and irregular beating, has been recently and independently associated with the increased risk of dementia.

Alteration of cerebrovascular haemodynamic patterns due to atrial fibrillation: an in silico investigation [PDF]
There has recently been growing evidence that atrial fibrillation (AF), the most common cardiac arrhythmia, is independently associated with the risk of dementia. This represents a very recent frontier with high social impact for the number of individuals involved and for the expected increase in AF incidence in the next 40 years.

Collateral Circulation in Ischemic Stroke: An Updated Review [PDF]
The collateral circulation plays a crucial role in maintaining perfusion to brain tissue in ischemic stroke, which prolongs the time window for effective therapies to be provided and ultimately avoids irreversible damage that may lead to worse clinical ...

Critical closing pressure in cerebrovascular circulation [PDF]
Cerebral critical closing pressure (CCP) has been defined as an arterial pressure threshold below which arterial vessels collapse. Hypothetically this is equal to intracranial pressure (ICP) plus the contribution from the active tone of cerebral arterial smooth muscle.
