Pulmonary lymphatic function and its research progress in pulmonary diseases
生物医学转化, 2023 The lymphatic system is a unidirectional network in which lymph fluid flows centripetally along a series of lymphatic channels and eventually into the veins, so the lymphatic system can also be considered an auxiliary part of the venous system and an ...

Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics, 2018 The supply of oxygen and nutrients to tissues is performed by the blood system and involves a net leakage of fluid outward at the capillary level. One of the principal functions of the lymphatic system is to gather this fluid and return it to the blood system to maintain overall fluid balance. Fluid in the interstitial spaces is often at subatmospheric
