Does Hypertension Accelerate Arteriosclerosis?

Does learning accelerate evolution?

This paper reviews the recent progress in the investigation into how learning can effect evolutionary dynamics after a century of sharply con¤icting views. The results are signi£cant both for theoretical biologists of various stripes and for computer scientists working on computational intelligence and other subdisciplines which often rely on the transfer of biological principles to digital sys...

Does Vascular Calcification Accelerate€Inflammation?

Fro F. xU Mo Ma Aa Ka AG ed aw Ins Ho ho res VB BACKGROUND Atherosclerosis is an inflammatory condition with calcification apparent late in the disease process. The extent and progression of coronary calcification predict cardiovascular events. Relatively little is known about noncoronary vascular calcification.

The eye in general vascular disease: hypertension and arteriosclerosis.

THE HUMAN eye is a natural transparent chamber and its retinal vascular system is easily accessible to direct and repeated observations in vivo. The behaviour of its arterioles, capillaries, and venules in health and disease should provide data applicable to the study of systemic vascular disorders. With the introduction of the ophthalmoscope, a little over a hundred years ago, abnormal fundus ...

Strict experimental evidence that apo-chaperonin GroEL does not accelerate protein folding, although it does accelerate one of its steps.

does hypertension remain after kidney transplantation?

hypertension is a common complication of kidney transplantation with the prevalence of 80%. studies in adults have shown a high prevalence of hypertension (htn) in the first three months of transplantation while this rate is reduced to 50- 60% at the end of the first year. htn remains as a major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, lower graft survival rates and poor function of transplante...
