Neuraxial modulation for treatment of VT storm. [PDF]
In the hyperadrenergic state of VT storm where shocks are psychologically and physiologically traumatizing, suppression of sympathetic outflow from the organ level of the heart up to higher braincenters plays a significant role in reducing the propensity

An evaluation of U-Net in Renal Structure Segmentation [PDF]
Renal structure segmentation from computed tomography angiography~(CTA) is essential for many computer-assisted renal cancer treatment applications. Kidney PArsing~(KiPA 2022) Challenge aims to build a fine-grained multi-structure dataset and improve the segmentation of multiple renal structures.

Effect of bladder distension on arterial blood pressure and renal circulation in acute spinal cats
Guttmann & Whitteridge (1947) found that in paraplegics, when the urinary bladder is distended, the blood pressure rises. This is particularly marked when the lesion is in the lower cervical or in the higher thoracic region (C7-T5).

Inhibition of the metabolic degradation of filtered albumin is a major determinant of albuminuria. [PDF]
Inhibition of the degradation of filtered albumin has been proposed as a widespread, benign form of albuminuria. There have however been recent reports that radiolabeled albumin fragments in urine are not exclusively generated by the kidney and that in ...

Clinical trials with endothelin receptor antagonists: What went wrong and where can we improve? [PDF]
In the early 1990s, within three years of cloning of endothelin receptors, orally active endothelin receptor antagonists (ERAs) were tested in humans and the first clinical trial of ERA therapy in humans was published in 1995.

MEDIMP: 3D Medical Images with clinical Prompts from limited tabular data for renal transplantation [PDF]
Renal transplantation emerges as the most effective solution for end-stage renal disease. Occurring from complex causes, a substantial risk of transplant chronic dysfunction persists and may lead to graft loss. Medical imaging plays a substantial role in renal transplant monitoring in clinical practice. However, graft supervision is multi-disciplinary,

Estimated central blood volume in cirrhosis [PDF]
The estimated central blood volume (i.e., blood volume in the heart cavities, lungs and central arterial tree) was determined by multiplying cardiac output by circulatory mean transit time in 19 patients with cirrhosis and compared with sympathetic ...
