Additive effect of red blood cell rigidity and adherence to endothelial cells in inducing vascular resistance.

American Journal of Physiology. Heart and Circulatory Physiology, 2008
To explore the contribution of red blood cell (RBC) deformability and interaction with endothelial cells (ECs) to circulatory disorders, these RBC properties were modified by treatment with hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)), and their effects on vascular ...

Chronic hypoxia increases fetoplacental vascular resistance and vasoconstrictor reactivity in the rat.

American Journal of Physiology. Heart and Circulatory Physiology, 2008
An increase in fetoplacental vascular resistance caused by hypoxia is considered one of the key factors of placental hypoperfusion and fetal undernutrition leading to intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), one of the serious problems in current ...

Calculation of coronary vascular resistance

Cardiovascular Research, 1980
A conscious, chronically instrumented canine model was used to investigate resistance changes in the distribution of the circumflex coronary artery as the artery was constricted. Several discrete constrictions were studied at two different levels of flow: resting and peak flow reactive hyperaemia.

Contribution of insulin resistance to vascular dysfunction

Archives of Physiology and Biochemistry, 2009
Insulin is a vascular hormone, able to influence vascular cell responses. In this review, we consider the insulin actions on vascular endothelium and on vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) both in physiological conditions and in the presence of insulin resistance.

Assessment of operability of congenital cardiac shunts with increased pulmonary vascular resistance

Catheterization and cardiovascular interventions, 2008
Patients with large left to right shunts as a result of congenital heart disease can develop changes in pulmonary vasculature that are initially reversible. It is critical in these patients to determine whether closure of the defect would reverse some of

Hematocrit-corrected Pulmonary Vascular Resistance

American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2018
The diagnosis and evaluation of severity of pulmonary vascular disease rests on the invasive determination of a pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR). It is often overlooked that PVR is linearly related to the viscosity of the blood, which in turn is curvilinearly related to hematocrit.

Systemic Vascular Resistance

1980
The height of the systemic vascular resistance is largely dependent on the total cross-sectional area of the arterioles in the peripheral vasculature. The smooth muscle tone of these vessels is influenced by neural, humoral, and local environmental factors.

Neurohumoral Control of Vascular Resistance

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1974
The precise role of neurogenic and humoral mechanisms in the pathogenesis of hypertension cannot be defined. Most likely several mechanisms are interacting. These may differ in the early phases of hypertension if trigger mechanisms are involved and in later phases of sustained hypertension if adaptive changes create a situation of hyperresponsiveness ...

Maternal total vascular resistance and concentric geometry: a key to identify uncomplicated gestational hypertension

BJOG: an International Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 2006
Objective  To evaluate the prognostic impact of elevated total vascular resistance (TVR) on the outcome of pregnancy in early mild gestational hypertension (EMGH).

Reflex increase in coronary vascular resistance in patients with ischemic heart disease.

New England Journal of Medicine, 1976
To assess possible coronary vasoconstriction in patients with ischemic heart disease, we measured coronary vascular resistance in 12 patients with normal hearts and 12 with coronary disease before and during the initial 50 seconds of cold pressor test, a
