Similar to vascular plants, non-vascular plant mosses have different periods of seasonal growth. There has been little research on the spectral variations of moss soil crust (MSC) over different growth periods. Few studies have paid attention to the difference in spectral characteristics between wet MSC that is photosynthesizing and dry MSC in suspended metabolism. The dissimilarity of MSC spec...

This article highlights the association between physical activity (PA) and seasonal variations in metabolic vascular function adults. Increasing PA is an important method for preventing cardiovascular disease (CVD) all-cause mortality by improving blood glucose, pressure, lipid profiles, body fat, insulin resistance, function, such as endothelial function. Conversely, various factors, climate c...

Filling of the heart chambers and great vessels with contrast substance reveals their anatomical structure, and permits differentiation of vascular from non-vascular mediastinal lesions. The method, contrast substance used, and procedure, have been described. Angiocardiography has revealed that our knowledge of the position of the heart chambers and the border-forming structures of the cardiac ...

Human vascular systems have considerable anatomic variations. In diseased situation, significant pathological changes will be developed with the systems. However, vascular catheterization devices commercially available are essentially designed on normal or average anatomy. Their inadequacies in representing major deviations in human vascular anatomy may present problems during diagnostic or the...

Many of the cardiovascular parameters or incidences of coronary artery diseases display circadian variations. These day/night time variances may be attributable to the diurnal change in vascular contractility. However, the molecular mechanism of the vascular clock system which generates the circadian variation of vascular contractility has remained largely unknown. Recently we found the existen...
