چکیده
The contribution gives a survey about the problematics of surface tension in biomedical sciences. The paper presents results of a study devoted to the cerebrospinal fluid. The distribution of the surface tension values of this liquid in healthy individuals is presented (n = 33), and further, statistically significant correlations between the cerebrospinal fluid surface tension value and 1. concentration of total proteins expressed by Spearman's coefficient p(s) = (-0.995) and 2. number of cell elements expressed through Spearman's coefficient p(s) = (-0.965) in cerebrospinal fluid are described.

Meningitis is one of the most common infectious cerebral nervous system (CNS), defined as an inflammation of the meninges. It is clinically categorized into a chronic and acute based on the acuity of symptoms. Vomiting, bulging fontanel and fever are the main symptoms in the patients with meningitis. Bacterial meningitis is a severe, potentially life-threatening infection that is associated wit...
متن کاملConcentration of soluble form of hepatocyte growth factor receptor in cerebrospinal fluid and serum of patients with bacterial and viral meningitis
Abstract Background and objectives: C-Met is a proto-oncogene that encodes a protein known as hepatocyte growth factor receptor (HGFR). The HGF receptor possesses tyrosine -kinase activity and it is essential for embryonic development, wound healing and cancer. Many proteins are proteolytically released from the surface by a process known as ectodomain shedding. Shedding occurs under normal phy...

We studied the growth of viscous fingers as a Laplacian growth by conformal mapping. Viscous fingers grow due to Saffman-Taylor instability in the interface between two fluids, when a less viscous fluid pushes a more viscous fluid. As there was an interest in the rectangular Hele-Shaw cell, we solved the Laplacian equation with appropriate boundary conditions by means of conformal mapping tech...
