A dynamic microtubule cytoskeleton directs medial actomyosin function during tube formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The cytoskeleton is a major determinant of cell-shape changes that drive the formation of complex tissues during development. Important roles for actomyosin during tissue morphogenesis have been identified, but the role of the microtubule cytoskeleton is

Heavy and moderate interval exercise training alters low-flow-mediated constriction but does not increase circulating progenitor cells in healthy humans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Copyright © 2012 The Authors.Moderate-intensity endurance exercise training improves vascular endothelial vasomotor function; however, the impact of high-intensity exercise training has been equivocal.

A comparative study of rubber band ligation versus BANANA-Clip in grade 1 to 3 internal hemorrhoids [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Coloproctology, 2023
Purpose Rubber band ligation (RBL) for grade 1 to 3 internal hemorrhoids is a well-established modality of choice. But RBL is also a kind of surgical treatment; it is not free from complications (e.g., delayed bleeding [DB], rectal stenosis).

Myocardial Fibrosis in Constrictive Pericarditis [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation, 1973
It has been suggested that a tentative preoperative decision favoring a pericardial lesion, on the one hand, or a myocardial lesion, on the other, may be made from certain noninvasive procedures, including the electrocardiogram. An attempt was therefore made to detect associated myocardial fibrosis by electrocardiogram in 67 patients with constrictive ...

The effects of curvature and constriction on airflow and energy loss in pathological tracheas

open access: yesRespiratory Physiology & Neurobiology, 2016
This paper considers factors that play a significant role in determining inspiratory pressure and energy losses in the human trachea. Previous characterisations of pathological geometry changes have focussed on relating airway constriction and subsequent pressure loss, however many pathologies that affect the trachea cause deviation, increased ...

Ultrasonographic identification of nerve pathology in neuralgic amyotrophy: Enlargement, constriction, fascicular entwinement, and torsion [PDF]

open access: yesMuscle & Nerve, 2015
ABSTRACTIntroductionThe aim of this study was to characterize the ultrasonographic findings on nerves in neuralgic amyotrophy.MethodsFourteen patients with neuralgic amyotrophy were examined using high‐resolution ultrasound.ResultsFour types of abnormalities were found: (1) focal or diffuse nerve/fascicle enlargement (57%); (2) incomplete nerve ...

Stenosis of the right major bronchus from blunt trauma [PDF]

open access: yesVojnosanitetski Pregled, 2006
Background. A severe blunt injury to the chest might cause rupture of the tracheobronchial tree. A certain time following the management of the injury, stenosis of the bronchi may develop at the site of the rupture. Case report.

Mechanics of constriction during cell division: a variational approach. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
During symmetric division cells undergo large constriction deformations at a stable midcell site. Using a variational approach, we investigate the mechanical route for symmetric constriction by computing the bending energy of deformed vesicles with ...
