3. Spatial and temporal characteristics of Ca2+ signaling in endothelial cells of intact rat tail artery
Sadaf Mumtaz
Pages: 84 - 92
Very few studies have described briefly the spatial and temporal characteristics of Ca2+ signaling using ATP, bradykinin, histamine and thrombin in cultured endothelium. However so far, the spatial and temporal characteristics in intact endothelium have not been elucidated.
The aim of this work was...

4. Use of wave intensity analysis during peripheral revascularisation: Lessons from cases study
Valérie Lacroix, Marie Willemet, Emilie Marchandise, Christophe Beauloye, Robert Verhelst
Pages: 93 - 102
Background: Wave propagation in arteries can be characterized by the wave-intensity approach. This has particularly well been studied in healthy ascending aortas, carotid, brachial and coronary arteries. However, wave propagation in diseased and peripheral arteries remains unknown. We performed wave...

Umut Yucel Cavus, Mahmut Nedim Aytekin, Sema Avci, Macit Aydin, Mehmet Sait Dogan
Pages: 103 - 105
Thromboembolic causes of acute limb ischemia are not frequent; however, an immediate true therapy is needed to save the extremity. Here we presented a case with bilateral lower extremity arterial thromboembolism mimicking conversion disorder. Conversion disorder and acute arterial embolism can be confronted...

Pages: 106 - 108
The present study describes analytically a rare case in which a trifurcation of Femoral Artery in Superficial Femoral Artery, Deep Femoral Artery and Lateral Circumflex Femoral Artery was found during dissection of a cadaver. This variation can be considered as a subdivision of Lateral Circumflex Femoral...
