Assessment of pulmonary edema: principles and practice [PDF]
, 2018 Pulmonary edema increasingly is recognized as a perioperative complication affecting outcome. Several risk factors have been identified, including those of cardiogenic origin, such as heart failure or excessive fluid administration, and those related to ...

Involvement of leukotriene pathway in the pathogenesis of ischemia-reperfusion injury and septic and non-septic shock. [PDF]
, 2009 The 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) pathway is responsible for the production of leukotrienes (LTs), inflammatory lipid mediators which play a role in innate immunity. More recently, a pivotal role of LTs in ischemia-reperfusion and shock injury has been suggested.

Histological Analysis of a Long Term Patent Subintimal Canal in the Superficial Femoral Artery
EJVES Vascular Forum, 2021 Introduction: Subintimal angioplasty (SIA) was introduced in the late 1980s and is a supplement to bypass surgery. Adaptation of the technique has been hampered by high rates of early intervention to maintain patency, but the long term assisted patency ...

Association of PET-measured myocardial flow reserve with echocardiography-estimated pulmonary artery systolic pressure in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy [PDF]
, 2019 BackgroundPulmonary hypertension (PH) is a known complication of HCM and is a strong predictor of mortality. We aim to investigate the relationship between microvascular dysfunction measured by quantitative PET and PH in HCM patients.MethodsEighty-nine ...

Comorbidities Associated with Large Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms [PDF]
, 2019 BACKGROUND: Abdominal aortic aneurysm has become increasingly important owing to demographic changes. Some other diseases, for example, cholecystolithiasis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and hernias, seem to co-occur with abdominal aortic ...

Potential Role of Ultrafine Particles in Associations between Airborne Particle Mass and Cardiovascular Health [PDF]
, 2005 Numerous epidemiologic time-series studies have shown generally consistent associations of cardiovascular hospital admissions and mortality with outdoor air pollution, particularly mass concentrations of particulate matter (PM) ≤2.5 or ≤10 μm in diameter

Pulmonary Vascular Diseases [PDF]
Circulation, 2008 The pulmonary circulation has fascinated researchers and clinicians for more than a century. Romberg first described the pathology of human pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) in 1891. In 1946, Euler and Liljestrand described the hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction: Whereas hypoxia dilates most systemic vascular beds, it constricts the pulmonary ...
