Review of Quantitative Systems Pharmacological Modeling in Thrombosis [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Hemostasis and thrombosis are often thought as two sides of the same clotting mechanism whereas hemostasis is a natural protective mechanism to prevent bleeding and thrombosis is a blood clot abnormally formulated inside a blood vessel, blocking the normal blood flow. The evidence to date suggests that at least arterial thrombosis results from the same

Aetiology of sudden cardiac death in sport: a histopathologist's perspective. [PDF]
, 2012 In the UK, when a young person dies suddenly, the coroner is responsible for establishing the cause of death. They will ask a consultant pathologist to carry out an autopsy in order to ascertain when, where and how that person died.

C-reactive protein: associations with haematological variables, cardiovascular risk factors and prevalent cardiovascular disease [PDF]
, 2003 C-reactive protein (CRP) has been proposed as a risk factor for cardiovascular disease; however, this association is confounded by mutual relationships with both classical and haematological cardiovascular risk factors. We, therefore, measured CRP with a

Detection and localization of Coronary Arterial Lesion with the Aid of Impedance Cardiography [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 In recent years, coronary artery disease is escalating and is likely to assume an epidemic proportion by 2030. Currently the reliable methods for detection of coronary arterial lesions are either conventional coronary angiogram (CAG) or MDCT (Multiple Detector Computed Tomography) coronary angiogram.

Platelets: New bricks in the building of neutrophil extracellular traps [PDF]
, 2016 In addition to being key elements in hemostasis and thrombosis, platelets have an important role in the inflammatory and innate immune response. This activity is associated with their capability to recognize pathogens through the expression of toll-like ...

An Effect of Spatial Filtering in Visualization of Coronary Arteries Imaging [PDF]
International Journal of Computer Science & Information Technology
(IJCSIT), Vol. 2, No. 1, 2009, PP: 35-40, 2011 At present, coronary angiography is the well known standard for the diagnosis of coronary artery disease. Conventional coronary angiography is an invasive procedure with a small, yet inherent risk of myocardial infarction, stroke, potential arrhythmias, and death.

Fused Segmentation of Geometric Models for Myocardium and Coronary Artery via Medial Axis [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 Coronary arteries and their branches supply blood to myocardium. The obstruction of coronary arteries results in significant loss of myocardium, called acute myocardial infarction, and the number one cause of death globally. Hence, quantification of the regional amount of heart muscle subtended by obstructed coronary arteries is of critical value in ...
