متن کاملEndothelial function in patients with chronic heart failure.
Congestive heart failure is characteristically associated with systemic vasoconstriction and impaired vasodilatory capacity, leading to decreased peripheral perfusion. Factors identified as possible causes of reduced vasodilatory capacity include activation of the sympathetic nervous system and the renin-angiotensin system, vascular stiffness due to increased sodium and fluid retention, and str...
متن کاملEndothelial dysfunction in heart failure.
Endothelial dysfunction crucially contributes to the development of impaired coronary and systemic perfusion as well as reduced exercise capacity in patients with congestive heart failure, with fundamental impact on morbidity and mortality. Reduced bioavailability of nitric oxide (NO) and abundant formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) within the vascular wall are the key determinants in en...
متن کاملAllogeneic Mesenchymal Stem Cells Restore Endothelial Function in Heart Failure by Stimulating Endothelial Progenitor Cells
BACKGROUND Endothelial dysfunction, characterized by diminished endothelial progenitor cell (EPC) function and flow-mediated vasodilation (FMD), is a clinically significant feature of heart failure (HF). Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), which have pro-angiogenic properties, have the potential to restore endothelial function. Accordingly, we tested the hypothesis that MSCs increase EPC function an...
متن کاملSome Issues in Implementation of a Voltage Stability Analysis Function in an Energy Management System Environment
Over the last few years, the problem of voltage stability has received a lot of attraction from the power system community. This type of stability is now a major concern for utilities in both planning and operating conditions. Both static and dynamic aspects of the problem have been discussed and investigated by the researchers. The present paper concentrates on a Voltage Stability Analysis fun...
