PLASMAPHERESIS IN RAYNAUD'S DISEASE [PDF]
Understanding of the pathogenesis, clinical course, and treatment of Raynaud's disease is confused and unsatisfactory, and no success in treatment can be promised. Five patients with severe Raynaud's disease, who had not responded to other forms of treatment, were treated by plasmapheresis, which produced a striking improvement.

Venodilation in Raynaud's disease
The pathogenesis of Raynaud's disease is unclear; an enhanced response to catecholamines has been hypothesised to contribute to this vasospastic disorder. Impaired endothelium-dependent dilation occurs in other diseases associated with vasospasm, such as coronary atherosclerosis.

Reducing Noise Induced by Cardiac Pulsatility in Brain Maps of R<sub>2</sub>* and Magnetic Susceptibility Using Tailored k-space Sampling. [PDF]
With linear k‐space sampling trajectories, cardiac pulsation leads to MRI signal instabilities that increase the variability (standard deviation, SD) of R2* and QSM maps across repetitions. Here, we propose alternative trajectories that aim to mitigate the impact of cardiac‐induced noise in brain maps of R2* and QSM.

Raynaud's Disease in Children [PDF]
Six children with primary Raynaud's disease have been studied with plethysmography and multiple-site skin-temperature readings. All six were free of systemic disease. Each demonstrated the characteristic sequence of pallor, cyanosis, and rubor when subjected to generalized cold, but application of local cold produced only modest reduction in skin ...

Hyperventilation and Raynaud’s disease [PDF]
Summary A 42 year old woman with long standing Raynaud’s disease, unresponsive to medical and surgical treatment, was noted to have a typical history of the hyperventilation syndrome. Rewarming of the hands following cold challenge was markedly prolonged in the presence of hypocapnia.

Mechanisms of Raynaud’s disease [PDF]
Raynaud's phenomenon is due to transient cessation of blood flow to the digits of the hands or feet. An attack of Raynaud’s phenomenon is classically manifested as triphasic color changes. The white phase is due to excessive vasoconstriction and cessation of regional blood flow.
