Comparative study of the effects of cigarette smoke versus next generation tobacco and nicotine product extracts on endothelial function

open access: yesRedox Biology, 2021
Tobacco smoking and hemodynamic forces are key stimuli for the development of endothelial dysfunction. As an alternative to smoking, next generation tobacco and nicotine products (NGP) are now widely used.

Inversion of hematocrit partition at microfluidic bifurcations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Partitioning of red blood cells (RBCs) at the level of bifurcations in the microcirculatory system affects many physiological functions yet it remains poorly understood. We address this problem by using T-shaped microfluidic bifurcations as a model.

The immunohistochemical response of the rat periodontal ligament endothelium to an inflammatory stimulus

open access: yesAustralasian Orthodontic Journal, 2000
Recently, inflammation has been recognised as an important co-requisite to orthodontic tooth movement. When such a reaction is initiated, the process of up-regulation of certain adhesion molecules may occur, resulting in the extravasation of leukocytes ...

Assessment of the peripheral microcirculation using computer-assisted venous congestion plethysmography in post-traumatic complex regional pain syndrome type I [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
In complex regional pain syndrome type I (CRPS-I), edema of the affected limb is a common finding. Therefore, the changes in macro- and microcirculatory parameters were investigated to elucidate the underlying pathophysiology.
