Vascular Nursing and Vascular Surgery

Annals of Vascular Surgery, 2020
Patients requiring vascular surgery have turned in older subjects with several comorbidities with frailty problems and increased vulnerability. Treating this kind of patients has become an important challenge both for vascular surgeons and for dedicated nurses, as these patients are more susceptible to postoperative complications and during discharge ...

Vascular imaging

Best Practice & Research Clinical Rheumatology, 2004
Many rheumatic diseases affect the vasculature, either as a 'primary' manifestation of the disease process (as in vasculitis or scleroderma-spectrum disorders) or as a result of accelerated atherosclerosis. Recent years have seen very major developments in, and refinements of, vascular imaging methods.

Vascular Echinococcosis

Asian Cardiovascular and Thoracic Annals, 2002
Three patients with arterial echinococcosis presented with chronic or acute arterial occlusion. One case diagnosed as Leriche's syndrome was found at surgery to have aortic occlusion caused by hydatid cysts; arterial reconstruction was performed by aortoiliac interposition of a woven Dacron vascular graft.

Vascular endothelial-cadherin and vascular stability

Current Opinion in Hematology, 2012
Vascular integrity is characterized by a tight control of permeability to cells and solutes and by resistance to blood flow. In several pathologies including tumor angiogenesis, vascular malformations, hemorrhagic stroke and others, there is the need to stabilize the vessels and prevent undesired bleeding or edema.

Vascular leukocytes contribute to tumor vascularization

Blood, 2005
Abstract There is no proof that hematopoietic cells contribute significantly to vasculogenesis in postnatal life. Here we report a novel leukocyte subset within ovarian carcinoma that coexpresses endothelial and dendritic cell markers.

Vascular cell senescence and vascular aging

Journal of Molecular and Cellular Cardiology, 2004
Vascular cells have a finite lifespan when cultured in vitro and eventually enter an irreversible growth arrest called "cellular senescence". A number of genetic animal models carrying targeted disruption of the genes that confer the protection against senescence in vitro have been reported to exhibit the phenotypes of premature aging.

Thrombospondin-1 in vascular development, vascular function, and vascular disease

Seminars in Cell & Developmental Biology
Angiogenesis is vital to developmental, regenerative and repair processes. It is normally regulated by a balanced production of pro- and anti-angiogenic factors. Alterations in this balance under pathological conditions are generally mediated through up-regulation of pro-angiogenic and/or downregulation of anti-angiogenic factors, leading to growth of ...

Vascular cognitive impairment and vascular dementia

Journal of the Neurological Sciences, 2002
The criteria for vascular dementia (VaD) depend on first diagnosing dementia using Alzheimer-type criteria, upon which are superimposed vascular events, usually following a stroke model. This if often inappropriate, however, as memory loss is not always prominent in VaD.
