HLA class II antibodies at the time of kidney transplantation and cardiovascular outcome : a retrospective cohort study [PDF]
Background. The negative role of HLA class II donor-specific antibody on graft outcome is well recognized. However, the potentially negative cardiovascular effects of preformed HLA class II antibodies and donor HLA in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs)

The Structural Features of Vascular Endothelium in Acute Cerebral Ischemia [PDF]
The aim of the research was to study the number and structural properties of desquamated endothelial cells (DECs) in the peripheral blood in carotid ischemic stroke (CIS) and carotid transient ischemic attacks (TIAs) and its connection with the marker of

Homocysteine in cerebrovascular disease: An independent risk factor for subcortical vascular encephalopathy [PDF]
Hyperhomocysteinemia is a risk factor for obstructive large-vessel disease. Here, we studied plasma concentrations of homocysteine and vitamins in patients suffering from subcortical vascular encephalopathy (SVE), a cerebral small-vessel disease leading ...

Time-dependent action of carbon monoxide on the newborn cerebrovascular circulation
Carbon monoxide (CO) causes cerebral arteriolar dilation in newborn pigs by the activation of large-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ channels. In adult rat cerebral and skeletal muscle arterioles, CO has been reported to produce constriction caused by the inhibition of nitric oxide (NO) synthase (NOS).

A Model of the Cerebral and Cerebrospinal Fluid Circulations to Examine Asymmetry in Cerebrovascular Reactivity [PDF]
The authors examined the steal phenomenon using a new mathematical model of cerebral blood flow and the cerebrospinal fluid circulation. In this model, the two hemispheres are connected through the circle of Willis by an anterior communicating artery (ACoA) of varying size.
