Abstract Autonomic nerves are crucial in cardiac function and pathology. However, data on the distribution of cholinergic and noradrenergic nerves in normal and pathologic human hearts is lacking. Nonfailing donor hearts were pressure‐perfusion fixed, imaged, and dissected. Left ventricular cardiomyopathy samples were also obtained.

Endovenous Management of Varicose Veins
Varicose veins are a very common condition and have been the subject of a recent proliferation of treatment modalities. The advent of the endovenous treatment era has led to a confusing array of different techniques that can be daunting when making the ...

Antibacterial hydrogel: The sniper of chronic wounds
The treatment of chronic wounds has always been an important challenge in the medical field. We focus on hydrogels not only because they provide a moist healing environment but also because compared with traditional dressings, they can effectively prevent and treat infections, reduce wound pain and scar formation.

Characterisation and optimisation of foams for varicose vein sclerotherapy [PDF]
In this study we characterise the properties of foams used for varicose vein sclerotherapy. Their effectiveness is evaluated by predicting their yield stress and their flow profiles within a model of a vein. This information is represented using a Bingham number, which also takes into account the foam liquid fraction and the Sauter mean of the bubble ...

Artificial Neural Networks for Finger Vein Recognition: A Survey [PDF]
Finger vein recognition is an emerging biometric recognition technology. Different from the other biometric features on the body surface, the venous vascular tissue of the fingers is buried deep inside the skin. Due to this advantage, finger vein recognition is highly stable and private.

Here, causal relations are examined between 2940 plasma proteins and 19 cardiovascular diseases (CVD) using a human genetics‐based method. 218 proteins are found whose blood levels influence CVD risks, with about half being new discoveries and largely confirmed in an independent cohort.

Vascular adaptation model from force balance: Physarum polycephalum as a case study [PDF]
Understanding vascular adaptation, namely what drives veins to shrink or grow, is key for the self-organization of flow networks and their optimization. From the top-down principle of minimizing flow dissipation at a fixed metabolic cost within flow networks, flow shear rate resulting from the flows pervading veins is hypothesized to drive vein ...

Abstract Spontaneous hemoperitoneum in pregnancy (SHIP) is defined as sudden, nontraumatic intraperitoneal bleeding that occurs during pregnancy or up to 42 days postpartum. The incidence ranges between 4 and 4.9 per 100 000 births. Although seen rarely, it is associated with perinatal morbidity and mortality due to maternal hemodynamic instability ...

Klippel‐Trénaunay‐Weber Syndrome: Prenatal Diagnosis and Review of the Literature
This meta‐analysis demonstrates the high diagnostic accuracy of SZ‐CEUS for differentiating between malignant and benign focal liver lesions, as well as for HCC from non‐HCC lesions. The study shows better performance for smaller lesions and those with a higher proportion of malignancy.
