Hemodynamics and Drinking in the Giraffe
ABSTRACT Background The circulation of 4–6 m tall giraffes is markedly affected by gravity. To ensure cerebral perfusion, upright giraffes generate a blood pressure in excess of 200 mmHg. Before drinking, the head is lowered by 3–5 m, providing exceptional hemodynamic challenges.

Role of Inflammatory and Proresolving Mediators in Endothelial Dysfunction
ABSTRACT Excessive local inflammation is a common mechanism in many cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) such as hypertension, atherosclerosis and aortic aneurysms. In endothelial cells, inflammatory cytokines such as interferons, tumour necrosis factor alpha or interleukins increase oxidative stress and contractile prostanoids and the expression of adhesion

Neurovascular Involvement in Fibromuscular Dysplasia: A Clue for Reappraisal of Old Classifications
ABSTRACT Background Fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) is a non‐atheromatous, non‐inflammatory arteriopathy involving the medium and small‐sized arteries virtually in all vascular beds. The most frequently involved arteries are cerebroafferent and renal arteries. The current classification of the diseases is mostly imaging based and two subtypes are defined:

Maternal IgE Influence on Fetal and Infant Health
ABSTRACT Immunoglobulin E (IgE) is the most recently discovered and evolved mammalian antibody type, best known for interacting with mast cells (MCs) as immune effectors. IgE‐mediated antigen sensing by MC provides protection from parasites, venomous animals, bacteria, and other insults to barrier tissues exposed to the environment.
