Abstract:
The effects of the opiate receptor agonists, enkephalins and morphine, and the antagonist, naloxone, on cerebrovascular resistance vessels was investigated in situ by employing perivascular microapplication. Feline pial arteries with a resting diameter of 66–294 μm were tested. Vascular diameter was measured using television image splitting. Concentration-response curves revealed no change of diameter when Leu-enkephalin, d-Ala2-Leu-enkephalinamide, d-Ala2-Met-enkephalinamide, and morphine were applied in concentrations of 10−11–10−5 M. Considering the concentrations of enkephalins that have b

Abstract:
Studying the mechanisms of age-related changes in vascular reactions and applying the acquired knowledge in the clinic can help reduce complications and mortality from diseases of the cardiovascular system, the frequency of which increases with age. This study is important because with aging, endothelial dysfunction increases and cerebral circulation disorders caused by the occurrence of ischemic foci are observed. One of the main elements in the regulation of vascular tone, along with many important mechanisms, are potassium ion channels. In this work, we studied age-related changes in the ro

This was followed, if required, by CT Urography (using a modified technique). In 9 out of 18 cases, the cause of ureteral dilatation on laboratory investigations was urinary tract infection (6) and tuberculosis (3).

First described by S.E. Duplay in 1833, acute gastric dilatation has since been well documented in the literature. Several theories of the pathogenesis of acute gastric dilatation have been postulated. In 1842, Karl Freiherr von Rokitansky described the superior mesenteric artery syndrome, followed by W. Brinton in 1859 with the atonic theory. C.R. Morris et al. introduced debilitation and anesthesia as predisposing factors. Although rare, gastric necrosis is the most severe consequence of acute gastric dilatation. Vascular insufficiency secondary to increased intragastric pressure is the crit

Ischaemia reperfusion injury (IR-injury) occurs when blood supply to a certain area of the body is blocked, and is subsequently followed by reperfusion. During the period of ischaemia, tissue is damaged as a result of lack of oxygen. Rapid reperfusion is mandatory, but unfortunately causes damage in addition to the damage induced by ischaemia alone. While a prolonged period of ischaemia is harmful to the bodily tissue, short periods of ischaemia interspersed with short bouts of reperfusion have protective effects. This mechanism is called ischaemic preconditioning (IPC). In this thesis, the im

Common risk factors for CVD such as hyperlipidaemia, hypertriglyceridemia, low HDL-C, obesity, insulin resistance, impaired glucose tolerance, inflammation and hypertension may increase the risk of atherosclerosis through altering vascular function. Modification of dietary intake and weight loss can ameliorate these risk factors and may impede the development of atherosclerosis. CVD risk can be assessed by measurement of both traditional e.g. lipid levels, glucose and blood pressure and novel risk markers of CVD e.g. FMD, levels of adhesion molecules, inflammatory markers and adipokines.

Abstract:
Arteriovenous (AV) fistula failure is a major clinical problem for the 350,000 patients currently on hemodialysis in the United States. The reasons for this failure are mainly attributed to venous stenosis due to neointimal hyperplasia together with a possible failure of vascular dilatation [1]. Despite the magnitude of the clinical problem, there are currently no effective therapies for AV fistula failure. We believe that this is due to a lack of knowledge about the mechanisms involved in both neointimal hyperplasia and vascular dilatation in the specific context of AV fistulae.

Remodeling of arteries in response to altered loads is an area of intense interest to cardio-vascular clinicians and researchers. In humans, changes due to cardiovascular diseases (e.g. aortic dilatation) may occur slowly over many years, and mathematical models that describe the remodeling response are needed for predicting the course, and possible treatment, of these diseases.

Abstract:
Remodeling of arteries in response to altered loads is an area of intense interest to cardio-vascular clinicians and researchers. In humans, changes due to cardiovascular diseases (e.g. aortic dilatation) may occur slowly over many years, and mathematical models that describe the remodeling response are needed for predicting the course, and possible treatment, of these diseases. Recently, Humphrey and coworkers have proposed constrained mixture models [1] that can describe these acute and chronic changes[2, 3]. These models consider local stresses in the arterial wall to be the sum of individu
