Targeted decrease of portal hepatic pressure gradient improves ascites control after TIPS

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
The river diagram demonstrates that after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt insertion (TIPS) the majority of patients without ascites and 50% of the patients with ascites detectable at ultrasound, show the best response in the long term follow‐up.

Randomized preclinical study of machine perfusion in vascularized composite allografts

BJS (British Journal of Surgery), EarlyView., 2020
This study was designed to identify the optimum machine perfusion parameters for preservation of limbs before transplantation, and determine whether this was better than cold storage. Normothermic machine perfusion at a pressure of 70 mmHg (NMP‐70) provided superior preservation to cold storage after transplantation.

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...

The arteriolar vasodilatation model of vibrio cholerae induced diarrhoeal disease [PDF]

, 2018
Secretory diarrhoeal disease caused by enterotoxins produced by pathogenic bacteria is characterised by severe fluid loss into the intestine. A prevalent explanation for such high rates of loss, such as occur in episodes of cholera, is that intestinal ...

Chemoreceptors and cardiovascular control in acute and chronic systemic hypoxia

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 1998
This review describes the ways in which the primary bradycardia and peripheral vasoconstriction evoked by selective stimulation of peripheral chemoreceptors can be modified by the secondary effects of a chemoreceptor-induced increase in ventilation.

The role of C-afferents in mediating neurogenic vasodilatation in plantar skin after acute sciatic nerve injury in rats

BMC Neuroscience, 2020
Background Vasomotor regulation of dermal blood vessels, which are critical in the function of the skin in thermoregulatory control, involves both neural and non-neural mechanisms. Whereas the role of sympathetic nerves in regulating vasomotor activities

Vampire Venom: Vasodilatory Mechanisms of Vampire Bat (Desmodus rotundus) Blood Feeding

Toxins, 2019
Animals that specialise in blood feeding have particular challenges in obtaining their meal, whereby they impair blood hemostasis by promoting anticoagulation and vasodilation in order to facilitate feeding. These convergent selection pressures have been

Effects of High Flavanol Dark Chocolate on Cardiovascular Function and Platelet Aggregation. [PDF]

, 2015
Regular consumption of chocolate and cocoa products has been linked to reduced cardiovascular mortality. This study compared the effects of high flavanol dark chocolate (HFDC; 1064mg flavanols/day for 6 weeks) and low flavanol dark chocolate (LFDC; 88mg ...

The vasorelaxant properties of novel benzodiazepine-like ligands on isolated rat thoracic aorta [PDF]

Scripta Medica, 2020
Background/Aim: In addition to well-established central effects, benzodiazepines, but also some other allosteric modulators of gamma-amino-butyric acid (GABA) receptor exhibit significant vascular effects.
