An exercise on developing an ontology-epistemology about schizophrenia and neuroanatomy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This paper describes preliminary ideas on formalizing some concepts of neuroanatomy into ontological and epistemological terms. We envisage the application of this ontology on the assimilation of facts about medical knowledge about neuroimages from ...

Perinatal outcome after prenatal diagnosis of single‐ventricle cardiac defects

open access: yesUltrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2015
To investigate the perinatal outcome of cases with a prenatal diagnosis of single‐ventricle cardiac defects, single ventricle being defined as a dominant right ventricle (RV) or left ventricle (LV), in which biventricular circulation was not possible.

Detecção precoce da disfunção diastólica global e regional do ventrículo esquerdo no lúpus eritematoso sistêmico: o papel da ecocardiografia Early detection of global and regional left ventricular diastolic dysfunction in systemic lupus erythematosus: the role of the echocardiography

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Reumatologia, 2010
INTRODUÇÃO: A ecocardiografia bidimensional é um método de diagnóstico por imagem não invasivo que avalia, de modo eficaz, a função diastólica global e regional do ventrículo esquerdo.

Extensive Left Ventricular Thrombosis with Concomitant Pulmonary Embolism

open access: yesClinics and Practice, 2021
A 57-year-old non-obese female patient with a history of heavy smoking, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and hypertension was admitted to the hospital as an emergency for acute hemoptysis and signs of congestive heart failure.

New experimental model of acute aqueductal blockage in cats: effects on cerebrospinal fluid pressure and the size of brain ventricles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
It is generally assumed that cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is secreted in the brain ventricles, and so after an acute blockage of the aqueduct of Sylvius an increase in the ventricular CSF pressure and dilation of isolated ventricles may be expected. We have

An MRI assessment of mechanisms underlying lesion growth and shrinkage in multiple sclerosis

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
By applying the tensor model, we analysed lesion orientation and the directionality of lesion expansion/contraction in multiple sclerosis. Each lesion is summarized as an ellipsoid, and the tensor model is applied to calculate lesion anisotropy. From the top to the bottom white matter atlas, surface‐in gradient segmentation and venous atlas used in the

Study of cardiovascular function using a coupled left ventricle and systemic circulation model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
To gain insight into cardio-arterial interactions, a coupled left ventricle-systemic artery (LV–SA) model is developed that incorporates a three-dimensional finite-strain left ventricle (LV), and a physiologically-based one-dimensional model for the ...

The right ventricle in pulmonary arterial hypertension

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Review, 2014
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a right heart failure syndrome. In early-stage PAH, the right ventricle tends to remain adapted to afterload with increased contractility and little or no increase in right heart chamber dimensions.

Associations of Cerebrospinal Fluid Orexin‐A, Alzheimer Disease Biomarkers, and Cognitive Performance

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACTObjectiveCerebrospinal fluid (CSF) orexin‐A has been suggested to be a biomarker of Alzheimer disease (AD). In both cognitively unimpaired healthy older adults and individuals with symptomatic AD, CSF orexin‐A is positively associated with CSF Aβ42, p‐tau181, and total tau (t‐tau) concentrations.

Three-dimensional structure of the flow inside the left ventricle of the human heart

open access: yes, 2013
The laboratory models of the human heart left ventricle developed in the last decades gave a valuable contribution to the comprehension of the role of the fluid dynamics in the cardiac function and to support the interpretation of the data obtained in ...
