Uncovering the impact of the cardiovascular system on cerebrovascular health using MRI
Abstract Human cerebrovasculature is finely tuned to enable local changes in blood flow to meet the brain's demands, whilst protecting the brain from systemic changes in blood pressure, both acutely during a heartbeat and chronically over time. This review summarises cerebrovascular structure and function, their role in disease and neurodegeneration ...

Access via the femoral vein [PDF]
Central venous access via the femoral vein (FV) is safe, relatively easy and very usual in infants and children undergoing cardiac surgery for congenital heart disease. It has a low insertion-related complication rate.

Abstract To test the hypothesis that hot water immersion (HWI) improves cerebrovascular function via shear‐mediated mechanisms, this study determined cerebrovascular reactivity to carbon dioxide (CVRCO2${\mathrm{CV}}{{\mathrm{R}}_{{\mathrm{C}}{{\mathrm{O}}_2}}}$) before and after 60 min of 39°C HWI and a 21°C air control (CON) in 15 healthy ...

Anatomic variations in the surgical anatomy of the thoracic esophagus and its surrounding structures [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Esophagectomy is a challenging procedure due to: a) it is a complex operation; b) it is linked to very high morbidity and mortality rates; c) surgical anatomy of the esophagus is very peculiar. The anatomic variations that can be unexpectedly

Abstract Background Contrast‐enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) using normal saline (NS) is an alternative to chest radiograph (CXR) to confirm central venous catheter (CVC) tip position during emergency. We aim to assess the feasibility and compare the efficacy of Dextrose 50% (D50%) and NS in detecting CVC malposition against CXR.
