Surgical considerations based on oral and periodontal vascularization

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives To synthesize current evidence on vascular and anastomotic patterns, emphasizing their operative implications for optimizing flap perfusion, neovascularization, and wound healing in periodontal and implant surgery, while accounting for anatomical variability and collateral circulation. Materials and Methods A comprehensive review of

Computed tomography angiography assessment of Adamkiewicz artery with sublingual nitroglycerin administration

Neuroradiology
Identification of the Adamkiewicz artery before aortic surgery is important for preventing postoperative complications due to spinal cord ischemia. The Adamkiewicz artery is difficult to identify due to its small diameter. Nitroglycerin has a vasodilatory effect and is used clinically to improve visualization of blood vessels on coronary computed ...

Ultrasound and CBCT analysis of blood flow and dimensions of the lingual vascular canal: A case control study

Journal of Oral Biology and Craniofacial Research, 2021
Objective: To assess the correlation between the diameter of the mandibular lingual vascular canal (MLVC) as determined on CBCT examination to blood flow and arterial diameter as determined by ultrasound Doppler analysis (USG) in dentate and edentulous ...

Cardiometabolic effects of contrast therapy: A systematic review

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The rising prevalence of overweight and obesity, together with associated cardiometabolic disorders, underscores the need for additional strategies alongside established interventions. The growing popularity of contrast therapy – alternating exposure to heat and cold, a practice common in traditional Finnish sauna bathing – has prompted ...

The effects of sublingual nitroglycerin on myocardial blood flow in patients with coronary artery disease or myocardial hypertrophy [PDF]

American Heart Journal, 1969
Abstract Using selective intracoronary injections of xenon-133 in saline, the effect of sublingual nitroglycerin on myocardial blood flow was studied in nine patients undergoing cardiac catheterization. One normal patient showed a 14 per cent increase in flow, 1 1 2 minutes after drug administration, with a subsequent decline to 8 per cent ...

Passive heat therapy is feasible but does not affect cardiometabolic health outcomes in persons with spinal cord injury – a pilot study

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Passive heat therapy can improve cardiometabolic health outcomes in some clinical populations, making it a potential therapeutic tool for individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI), who exhibit elevated cardiometabolic disease risk and face barriers to physical activity.

The Sublingual Glycocalyx : A Novel Noninvasive Predictor of Coronary Artery Disease in Females

The FASEB Journal, 2013
The glycocalyx (GC) provides in healthy blood vessels limited access to flowing red blood cells (RBC). Recent studies have suggested that RBCs penetrate deeper into a damaged GC, which has been associated with microcirculatory dysfunction that accompanies coronary artery disease (CAD).

Comparison of exercise training and repeated hot water immersion on vascular function in overweight older adults

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent studies suggest that heat exposure may benefit cardiovascular health, but in overweight and obese older adults, the chronic effects of heat therapy on artery function are still uncertain. We aimed to compare the effects of 12 weeks (3×/week, 40 min) of aerobic exercise (EXE) to hot water immersion (HWI) and an inactive control group ...

Geniolingual artery: a proposed name for an important artery

Journal of Craniomaxillofacial Research, 2017
Multiple arteries perforate the lingual cortex of mandibular symphysis. These arteries might be damaged during various surgical procedures and can pose significant health risk to the patient.

Unusual Vasospastic Angina: A Documented Asymptomatic Spasm with Normal ECG—A Case Report and a Review of the Literature

Case Reports in Cardiology, 2013
We report the case of a 53-years-old patient, known to have coronary artery disease, presenting with typical angina at rest with normal ECG and laboratory findings. His angina is relieved by sublingual nitroglycerin.
