It is necessary to have a greater understanding of COVID-19, and studies with an adequate design must be performed to be able to make treatment and rehabilitation recommendations with a sufficient degree of evidence. However, for patients discharged from the hospital who have been cured of the infection and who have significant functional impairment, Blood flow restriction (BFR) strengthening m...

conclusions results suggest that these methods cannot be interchanged, and vvi showed significantly lower lv peak twist, peak twisting rate and peak untwisting rate. however, when lv twist and lv twisting rates were normalized to lv length, values were comparable for both imaging techniques. results twist degree was significantly lower in the vvi group than in the tdi group (p = 0.008, r = 0.56...

previous in vitro work on rabbit knee joint vessels showed that vasoconstrictor effects of nerve stimulation and administration of α-adrenoceptor agonists were mediated predominantly by α1-adrenoceptors5,9 the present experiments were performed to assess the nature of α-adrenoceptor subtypes within these blood vessels in vivo. dose/response relationships for adrenaline and noradrenaline produce...

background: the interaction between the blood and the vessel wall is of great clinical interest in studying cardiovascular diseases, the major causes of death in developed countries. objective: to understand the effects of incorporating fluid-structure interaction into the simulation of blood flow through an anatomically realistic model of abdominal aorta and renal arteries reconstructed from c...

background: pulse wave velocity (pwv) is widely used for estimating the stiffness of an artery. v arious invasive and non-invasive methods have been developed to determine pwv over the years. in the present research , the non-invasive estimation of the pwv of large arteries was used as an index for arterial stiffness. methods: a dynamic model based on the navier-stokes equations coupled to elas...

adenosine has many of the characteristics of a regulator of cerebral blood flow and adenosine receptors change in morphine dependency. in this study the changes in adenosine receptors' responsiveness of pial vessels in the hind limb area of the sensory cortex were evaluated in morphine dependent rats (mdr) using the laser doppler flowmetry technique. adult male sprague dawley rats (250-350...

previous studies have shown that electrical stimulation (es) increases blood flow, but the exact mechanisms are not clear. the present study was designed to clarify some of the underlying mechanisms involved in this phenomenon. white adult rabbits lt.-6 months old were used. animals were anesthetized by sodium pentobarbital (40 mg/kg, iv) and skin blood flow in the thoracic back was recorded us...

background preeclampsia is one of the leading causes of maternal mortality and morbidity. its prevalence varies between 10-25% among high-risk pregnant patients. objectives the aim of this study was to determine whether treatment with acetylsalicylic acid (asa) reduces the incidence of preeclampsia among pregnant women with abnormal uterine artery flow. patients and methods in this double-blind...

background: a pressure ulcer is a complication related to the need for the care and treatment of primarily disabled and elderly people. with the decrease of the blood flow caused by the pressure loaded, ulcers are formed and the tissue will be wasted with the passage of time. objective the aim of this study was to construct blood flow monitoring system on the heel tissue which was under externa...
