Different causes leading to lesions of the peripheral nerve trunk result in instability of the state of regional hemodynamics values. Vegetative-vascular disorders determining the characteristic aspects of the peripheral hemodynamics may result in the development of intratruncal edematous compression of the nerve trunks.

Diabetes is known to reduce blood circulation in capillaries and arterioles; however, no devices can easily measure this on a daily basis. In this study, we developed a tool for measuring finger photoplethysmograms using green light and near-infrared LEDs. Thereafter, photoplethysmography was conducted on 25 inpatients/outpatients with diabetes and 21 adult males and females who had not been diagnosed with or treated for diabetes, hypertension, or cardiovascular disease (control group).

Hypertension is a leading independent risk factor for the development of cardiovascular disease, the leading cause of death globally. Importantly, the prevalence of hypertension is positively correlated with obesity, with obesity-related hypertension being difficult to treat due to a lack of current guidelines in this population as well as limited efficacy and adverse off-target effects of currently available antihypertensive therapeutics. This highlights the need to better understand the mechanisms linking hypertension with obesity to develop optimal therapeutic approaches.

Neuropeptide FF (NPFF) is an endogenous octapeptide that was originally isolated from the bovine brain. It belongs to the RFamide family of peptides that has a wide range of physiological functions and pathophysiological effects. NPFF and its receptors, NPFFR1 and NPFFR2, abundantly expressed in rodent and human brains, participate in cardiovascular regulation.

The great saphenous vein (GSV) has long been recognized as the best conduit for vascular bypass procedures. Concomitant varicose veins disease may be a reason for GSV unavailability either due to dilatation and tortuosity of the vein or due to its destruction during invasive venous treatment. -to assess the rate of varicose vein patients with concomitant lower extremity arterial disease (LEAD) who have previously lost their GSV due to venous ablation.

In recent decades, the advantages of minimizing surgical trauma have led to the development of minimally invasive surgical procedures. While the benefits often outweigh the risks, several challenges are encountered that are not present in conventional surgical approaches. Unilateral pulmonary edema (UPE) after mitral interventions performed through a right-sided approach is a rare but potentially life-threatening event.
