Investigation of physiological pulsatile flow in a model arterial stenosis using large-eddy and direct numerical simulations [PDF]
Physiologicalpulsatileflow in a 3D model of arterialstenosis is investigated by using largeeddysimulation (LES) technique. The computational domain chosen is a simple channel with a biological type stenosis formed eccentrically on the top wall.

Aortic stenosis is a common finding at echocardiography. This review describes the assessment of the aortic valve, the left ventricle, and the rest of the heart. It discusses grading the stenosis including cases in which there are discrepancies between the different echocardiographic measurements.

Association of developmental lumbar spinal canal stenosis and stunting
Objective: To determine a possible relationship between developmental lumbar spinal canal stenosis (DLSS) and stunting. Background: Stunting is due to failure of longitudinal length with shortened long bones. Stunted individuals have failure of growth of

Risk of Stroke in Patients With Ocular Arterial Occlusive Disorders: A Retrospective Canadian Study
Background Monocular vision loss, attributed to either central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO), branch retinal artery occlusion (BRAO), or ocular ischemic syndrome (OIS), is thought to be associated with an increased prevalence of cerebral infarcts ...

The feasibility of the flower stenting technique for ostial lesions of the common iliac artery
Background and Aims A balloon‐expandable stent (BES) is generally used for ostial lesions of the common iliac artery (CIA) owing to the positional ease of stent adjustment.

The effect of varying degrees of stenosis on transition to turbulence in oscillatory flows [PDF]
Many complications in physiology are associated with a deviation in flow in arteries due to a stenosis. The presence of stenosis may transition the flow to weak turbulence. The degree of stenosis as well as its configuration whether symmetric or non-symmetric to the parent artery influences whether the flow would stay laminar or transition to ...
