Vascular viewpoint

Hemodialysis vascular access dysfunction: a cellular and molecular viewpoint.

Hemodialysis vascular access dysfunction is a major cause of morbidity and hospitalization in the hemodialysis population. The major cause of hemodialysis vascular access dysfunction is venous stenosis as a result of neointimal hyperplasia. Despite the magnitude of the clinical problem, however, there has been a paucity of novel therapeutic interventions in this field. This is in marked contras...

Viewpoint Selection using Viewpoint Entropy

Computation of good viewpoints is important in several fields: computational geometry, visual servoing, robot motion, graph drawing, etc. In addition, selection of good views is rapidly becoming a key issue in computer graphics due to the new techniques of Image Based Rendering. Although there is no consensus about what a good view means in Computer Graphics, the quality of a viewpoint is intui...

Viewpoint Modeling *

If architecture representation is the problem (P), and the UML is the solution (S), how do we get from P to S? In this paper, I introduce the idea of viewpoint modeling as a part of the answer. A viewpoint, as defined in IEEE 1471, defines a set of architectural concerns and the resources needed to address those concerns. A viewpoint gives an architect the resources with which to construct an a...

The Meanings and Prospects of Primo Vascular System from the Viewpoint of Historical Context

The aim of this overview is to evaluate the primo vascular system research in the context of the history of meridian theory and the modern meanings of it. The 12 meridian systems were naturally presupposed in the conventional study of the meridians and acupuncture. But the excavations of Mawang-tui old documents and Sichuan Mianyang wooden puppet revealed the primordial concepts of meridians un...
