Through the middle mesenteric artery and the hepatic portal vein it is possible to perfuse specifically a small part of the catfish midgut. Using a tested VIP extraction procedure it is shown that trout and catfish extracts of oesophagus, stomach, midgut and hindgut induce a vasodilation similar to that of porcine VIP. The importance of the vasodilatory response depends on the level of perfused VIP and extracted tissue.

Cerebrovascular Compliance during Progressive Hypotension in Patients with Autonomic Failure.
J Appl Physiol (1985)

School of Kinesiology, Western University, London, Ontario, Canada.
The compliant nature of cerebral blood vessels may represent an important mechanical protection for sustained cerebral perfusion during reductions in arterial blood pressure (ABP). However, whether the rise in cerebrovascular compliance (Ci) with falling ABP persists and exhibits a threshold effect remains unknown. Therefore, we analyzed Ci changes during graded head-up tilt (HUT) in individuals with autonomic failure (AF), a group that tolerates graded and progressive reductions in ABP.

ETV2/ER71, an ETS (E-twenty six) transcription factor, is critical for hematopoiesis and vascular development. However, research about the molecular mechanisms behind ETV2-mediated gene transcription is limited. Herein, we demonstrate that ETV2 and KDM4A, an H3K9 demethylase, regulate hematopoietic and endothelial genes.

Objective: To investigate the short-term blood flow changes and image features of the retina and choroid in patients who underwent carotid artery revascularization (CAR) for severe carotid artery stenosis using widefield swept-source OCT angiography (OCTA).
Design: Prospective study.
Participants: This prospective study included 112 eyes (56 eyes on the ipsilateral side and 56 eyes on the contralateral side) of 56 participants with severe carotid artery stenosis.
Randomized Trial Demonstrating No Translocation of Intact Intestinal Bacteria During Hemodialysis or Hemodiafiltration.
Kidney Int Rep
January 2025
Amsterdam UMC, location AMC, Nephrology, Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
Introduction: The low incidence of intradialytic hypotension (IDH) in high-volume (HV) hemodiafiltration (HDF) may help in maintaining gut perfusion during treatment. Preservation of gut endothelial integrity would limit or prevent bacterial translocation and subsequent systemic inflammation, which may contribute to the low mortality rate in HV-HDF.
Methods: Forty patients were cross-over randomized to standard (hemodialysis [HD]) (S-HD), cool HD (C-HD), and HDF (low-volume [LV] and HV, convection volume (CV) of 15 L and ≥ 23 L per session, respectively), each for 2 weeks.
Factors Associated With Prolonged Venous Transit in Large Vessel Occlusion Acute Ischemic Strokes.

January 2025
Department of Radiology, Division of Neuroradiology, Johns Hopkins Medical Center, Baltimore, Maryland, USA.
Background And Purpose: Prolonged venous transit (PVT), derived from computed tomography perfusion (CTP) time-to-maximum (T) maps, reflects compromised venous outflow (VO) in acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion (AIS-LVO). Poor VO is associated with worse clinical outcomes, but pre-treatment markers predictive of PVT are not well described.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of 189 patients with anterior circulation AIS-LVO who underwent baseline CT evaluation, including non-contrast CT, CT angiography, and CTP.
