Analysis of local hemodynamics in central and peripheral arteries [PDF]
This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University.To understand the function of the cardiovascular system, the propagation of waves in arteries has to be investigated, since they carry information which can

Highly effective non-viral gene transfer into vascular smooth muscle cells of cultured resistance arteries demonstrated by genetic inhibition of sphingosine-1-phosphate-induced vasoconstriction [PDF]
The linkage of vascular genes to specific functions will lead to a better understanding of cardiovascular pathophysiology. We developed an experimental model that enables the introduction of one or multiple gene(s) into vascular smooth muscle cells ...

Determination of wave speed and distensibility of flexible tubes using diameter and velocity [PDF]
It is well accepted that wave speed is one of the key factors describing wave propagation in arteries. Local wave speed is directly related to the mechanical properties of the arterial wall and is widely used to determine the arterial distensibility ...

The role of large arteries in controlling blood flow to the hand during severe local cooling. [PDF]
PhDCold vasodilatation describes the increase in blood flow that follows initial vaso constriction when an extremity is exposed to an environment colder than 12'C. It appears to be due mainly to cold paralysis of local resistance vessels.

Giant Cell Arteritis and Polymyalgia Rheumatica: 2016 Update
Giant cell arteritis (GCA) and polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) are both more common among people of North European decent than among Mediterranean people. Women are 2–3 times more commonly affected. Giant cell arteritis and PMR are extremely rare before age

Background: The cutdown procedure in cerebrovascular bypass requires incising the scalp along the preoperative marking identifying the arteries. We present two patients in whom preoperative marking on the scalp misidentified veins as arteries and thus ...

Superficial temporal artery aneurysms [PDF]
We analyzed the data from our vascular registry to determine the cause, clinical features, and cost-effective management of this uncommon pathologic entity.Patients referred to the vascular surgery outpatient clinic of a tertiary referral center during the past 18 years were evaluated.The subjects were six male patients (14 to 32 years) referred for ...

Leiomyoma of the temporal artery
A 25-year-old man had a right sided cyst-like swelling removed from his forehead. Histology revealed a well circumscribed spindle cell lesion with myxomatous changes. Immunohistochemical staining with muscle markers (smooth muscle actin, muscle specific actin) was positive.
