Orthogonal Polarization Spectral Imaging (OPS) Measurements of Microcirculatory Changes in Term Newborns with Suspected Infection [PDF]
The early diagnosis of neonatal infection remains a challenge. Recent studies using Optical Polarized Spectral (OPS) imaging techniques, have reported microcirculatory alterations in adult patients with severe sepsis and septic shock.

Neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio and platelet-lymphocyte ratio as predictors of coronary microcirculatory disease occurrence and outcome in patients with chronic coronary syndrome and no significant coronary artery stenosis [PDF]
Introduction: Index of microcirculatory resistance assessment is an invasive method of measuring coronary microcirculation function. Association between impaired microcirculatory function and higher rate of cardiovascular events was proven.

Cerebral Microcirculatory Responses of Insulin‐Resistant Rats are Preserved to Physiological and Pharmacological Stimuli [PDF]
AbstractObjectivePreviously, we have shown that IR impairs the vascular reactivity of the major cerebral arteries of ZO rats prior to the occurrence of Type‐II diabetes mellitus. However, the functional state of the microcirculation in the cerebral cortex is still being explored.MethodsWe tested the local CoBF responses of 11–13‐week‐old ZO (n = 31 ...

Effect of microcirculatory dysfunction on coronary hemodynamics:A pilot study based on computational fluid dynamics simulation [PDF]
Background: Invasively measured fractional flow reserve (FFR) and index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR) are gold standards for the diagnosis of coronary artery disease (CAD) and coronary microcirculatory dysfunction (CMD).
