Stress computed tomography perfusion (CTP) delivers a comprehensive evaluation of both the anatomical and functional aspects in a single examination. It stands out as the only non-invasive technique capable of quantifying coronary stenosis and assessing its functional impact, offering a consolidated diagnostic and management approach for patients with confirmed or suspected coronary artery disease (CAD). This very practical review ('How to.

Aim: This study aimed to examine the correlations between specific urethral function parameters observed in urodynamic testing and selected urethral characteristics evaluated by pelvic floor ultrasonography. Additionally, the presence of urethral funneling during straining was evaluated in female patients referred for surgical treatment of stress urinary incontinence.
Material And Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on 192 female patients referred for surgical treatment of stress urinary incontinence with the use of retropubic tension-free vaginal tape.

This study examines how heart rate (HR) affects hemodynamics in a South African infant with Coarctation of the Aorta. Computed tomography angiography segments aortic coarctation anatomy; Doppler echocardiography derives inlet flow waveforms. Simulations occur at 100, 120, and 160 beats per minute, representing reduced, resting, and elevated HR levels.

Donkeys are in the Equidae family but have several differences from horses. There are many studies on the pathophysiology of pain and its clinical signs in horses, but data are limited for donkeys. Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate biochemical effects of flunixin meglumine in donkeys subjected to pain induced by bloodless and surgical castration.

Acute stroke is the second leading cause of death and the third leading cause of disability in the world. Ischemic stroke (IS) the most common type of stroke. In acute cerebral ischemia, damage to the brain tissue is complex and includes blood-brain barrier (BBB) dysfunction, neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, activation of intracellular and extracellular signaling pathways, expression of neurotoxic agents, excitotoxicity, and apoptosis.
