the high blood rate that often occurs in arteries may play a role in artery failure and tortuosity which leads to blackouts, transitory ischemic attacks and other diseases. however, vibration and instability analysis of carotid arteries are lacking. the objective of this study is to investigate the vibration and instability of the carotid arteries conveying blood under axial tension with surrou...

kawasaki disease (kd) is an acute vasculitis syndrome of unknown etiology. it occurs in infants and young children, affecting mainly small and medium-sized arteries, particularly the coronary arteries. generalized microvasculitis occurs in the first 10 days, and the inflammation persists in the walls of medium and small arteries, especially the coronary arteries, and changes to coronary artery ...

BACKGROUND: There is little information about blood supply of the carpal joint in one- humped camel, while there is extensive data about cow and equine species. In order to perform surgeries and diagnostic techniques in carpal region, information about the elements of the joint such as its arteries is necessary. OBJECTIVES: This study aims at describing the origins, arrangements, and branches o...

introduction patients with palliated congenital heart disease may present later in life for major, non-cardiac surgical procedures. although alternative surgical techniques are now available for the treatment of the transposition of the great arteries (tga), an atrial level baffle (mustard or senning procedure) was previously performed. long-term adverse effects of the atrial level switch inclu...

background: numerical study of angulation effects of renal arteries on blood flow has been of great interest for many researchers. objective: this paper aims at numerically determining the angulation effects of stenosed renal arteries on blood flow velocity and renal mass flow. method: an anatomically realistic model of abdominal aorta and renal arteries is reconstructed from ct-scan images and...

the possibility of abnormal avf was considered and it was confirmed on contrast-enhanced computed tomography (ct), inferring that this modality is not only fast and non-invasive, but also accurate in detecting vascular abnormalities. herein, we report a 42-year-old woman with congenital avf between the external carotid artery and external jugular vein, presenting with palpitation and dyspnea. t...

acquaintance with the different anatomical variations of the arterial supply of the gallbladder is of great importance in hepatobiliary surgical procedures. a rare variation of the hepatobiliary arterial system was found during anatomical dissection of a female iranian cadaver. two cystic arteries were present, the first arising directly from the right hepatic artery and the second from the gas...

length of hospital stay (los) is a key indicator for hospital management. reducing hospital stay is a priority for all health systems. we aimed to determine the length of hospital stay following coronary artery bypass surgery (cabg) based on its clinical and non-clinical factors. a cross-sectional study of 649 consecutive patients who underwent coronary artery bypass graft surgery was conducted...

objective(s): angiotensin ⅱ type 1 receptor blockers (arbs) represent one of the widely used antihypertensive agents. in addition to anti-hypertension effect, some arbs also show other molecular effects such as activating peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ and so on. here we studied the effects of telmisartan on the rat isolated mesenteric artery rings pre-contracted by phenylephrine ...
