The effect of synthetic atrial natriuretic factor (ANF 101-126) has been studied on regional blood flow distribution. Microspheres (15 +/- 3 microns), labelled with either 113Sn or 57Co, were injected through an intraventricular cannula into conscious rats while a reference blood sample was withdrawn. Two minutes after the first microspheres injection either ANF or NaCl were injected. Five minutes later, the second microspheres injection was administered, and after two minutes the animals were sacrificed, and several tissues removed and counted. Percent of flow distribution, cardiac output and tissue blood flow were calculated by standard formulas. ANF produced a significant increase in absolute blood flow in lungs, heart, spleen, kidneys and testes. Total renal blood flow and total splanchnic blood flow were also increased in ANF-injected animals. No significant changes were observed in cardiac output. It is suggested that the natriuretic and hypotensive responses to ANF in vivo may be, at least partially, explained by its hemodynamic effects.

Previous studies reported baseline state-dependent effects on neural and hemodynamic responses to transcranial ultrasound stimulation. However, due to neurovascular coupling, neither neural nor hemodynamic baseline alone can fully explain the ultrasound-induced responses. In this study, using a general linear model, we aimed to investigate the roles of both neural and hemodynamic baseline status as well as their interactions in ultrasound-induced responses.

Ticagrelor has become the standard drug for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms (IAs) with flow diverters (FDs), but the dosage has not been standardized. The effect of platelet function on clinical and imaging prognosis remains unclear. This study aimed to show the effects of different doses of ticagrelor and platelet aggregation function on the clinical and imaging prognosis after FDs treatment of aneurysms.

Objective: Global per capita alcohol consumption is increasing, posing significant socioeconomic and medical challenges also due to alcohol-related traumatic injuries but also its biological effects. Trauma as a leading cause of death in young adults, is often associated with an increased risk of complications, such as sepsis and multiple organ failure, due to immunological imbalances. Regulatory T cells play a crucial role in maintaining immune homeostasis by regulating the inflammatory response.

Introduction: Altered vascular microcirculation is recognized as a risk factor for anastomotic leakage (AL) in colorectal surgery. However, few studies evaluated its impact on AL using different devices, with heterogeneous results. The present study reported the initial experience measuring gut microcirculatory density and flow with the aid of incidence dark-field (IDF) videomicroscopy (Cytocam, Braedius, Amsterdam, The Netherlands) comparing its operative outcome using a propensity score matching (PSM) model based on age, gender, and Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI).

Background: Early literature on the Woven EndoBridge (WEB) device reported 80-90% adequate aneurysm occlusion but low complete occlusion (40-55%). It is uncertain whether residual or recurrent aneurysms require re-treatment to prevent future rupture.
Objective: To systematically review the literature to meta-analyze occlusion and complication rates after re-treatment of these aneurysms.
