Penetrating femoral artery injuries : an urban trauma center experience
INTRODUCTION: The femoral artery (FA) is the most common peripheral vessel injured in trauma. The incidence has been as high as 70%. Most experience with vascular trauma comes from the military where the incidence of FA injury is 67% of all vascular injuries. Up to 88% of these injuries are as a …

Role of ROK and PKC in Permeabilized Rabbit Femoral Artery
… in [Ca2+]i. To test this hypothesis, rabbit femoral arteries were permeabilized with 20µg/ml α-toxin and 1% Triton X-100 and subjected to different calcium concentrations in the presence or absence of various ROK inhibitors. For a comparison we also used various PKC and MLCK inhibitors and …

The Regional Anatomy of Perforating Artery and Pedicle for the Anterolateral Thigh Free Flap in Korean
… up to their origin from lateral circumflex femoral artery along descending branch of lateral circumflex femoral artery. We then investigated the number, position and diameter of perforating arteries, length and diameter of vascular pedicle and pattern of lateral circumflex femoral arterial …

Vascular Effects of PHYSALIA PHYSALIS Venom
… measured from the aortic arch and the cranial femoral artery, a cephalad branch of the femoral artery. The skeletal muscle venous blood flow of the hind leg was functionally isolated. Femoral vein blood flow and pressure were monitored from ports in the extracorporeal flow sensor. Four of the …

Negative Pressure Wound Therapy - Mechanisms of Action and Protecting Exposed Blood Vessels in the Wound Bed
… 6 cm incision wounds in the groin, exposing the femoral artery. Microvascular blood flow was studied with transcutaneous laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF), invasive LDF, and thermodiffusion. Femoral artery blood flow was studied with invasive LDF. Pressure in the wound edge tissue, in the wound …

Mineralocorticoid receptor involvement in vascular dysfunction associated with vascular injury
… of MR in the vascular response to unilateral femoral artery excision. Here, femoral excision was performed in C57BL/6J mice treated with either vehicle or spironolactone as well as EC MR knockout (KO) or MR intact controls. Serial assessment of hindlimb perfusion over 28 days revealed that …

The Effect of Ischemia and High-Fat Diet on Pericyte Fate
… normal or HF diet and then underwent unilateral femoral artery ligation surgery to induce ischemia. My data showed that ischemia increased pericyte number through proliferation. Pericyte phenotype and morphology changed with ischemia, together with increased transcript levels of destabilizing …

The Influence of Cold-Water Immersion on Limb Blood Flow and Thermoregulatory Responses to Exercise
… ultrasound in the assessment of superficial femoral artery blood flow (FABF) was examined under resting conditions. A Doppler ultrasound scan of the superficial femoral artery was measured on eight recreationally active male participants; twice on the same day separated by 5-min (within-day), …

Ischemia Impairs Vasodilation in Skeletal Muscle Resistance Artery
… ischemia and age on skeletal muscle resistance artery function. To examine the impact of chronic ischemia, the femoral artery was resected from young (2-3mo) and adult (6-7mo) mice and the profunda femoris artery diameter was measured at rest and following gracilis muscle contraction 14 days …

Retrieving a Stent Navigating Deep Complications
… total occlusion of the proximal right coronary artery. Angioplasty and stenting were performed without complications. A second stent was advanced to treat a distal lesion. During the advancement, stent dislodgement from the guidewire, with entrapment in the struts of the previously placed stent …

ΕΠΙΔΡΑΣΗ ΤΗΣ ΑΟΡΤΙΚΗΣ ΕΝΔΟΤΙΚΟΤΗΤΑΣ ΣΤΗΝ ΤΕΛΟΔΙΑΣΤΟΛΙΚΗ ΠΙΕΣΗ ΤΗΣ ΑΡΙΣΤΕΡΗΣ ΚΟΙΛΙΑΣ
… THE CATHETER WERE INSERTED IN THE AORTA VIA THE FEMORAL ARTERY OF THE EXPERIMENT ANIMAL FOLLOWING PREPARATION OF THE ARTERY. THE PRESSURE OF THE LEFT VENTRICLE (LVP), THE PRESSURE OF THE AORTA (AP), THE PRESSURE OF THE AIR-CHAMBER SYSTEM AS WELL AS THE BLOOD FLOW AT THE ASCENDING AORTA, WERE …

The effect of prior exercise on postprandial lipaemia
… increases postprandial hepatic portal vein and femoral artery blood flow. The general message from this thesis is that moderate-intensity aerobic exercise should be advocated as a strategy to lower cardiovascular disease risk, based on experimental evidence that postprandial lipaemia is …

Peripheral blood flow changes in response to post-exercise cold water immersion
… was to compare blood flow changes in the common femoral artery, vastus lateralis muscle, and thigh skin induced by 5 min of post-exercise water immersion at 8°C, 14°C, 35°C or passive rest. In a randomised manner, nine recreationally active men performed exhaustive cycling in a climate control …

Prolylcarboxypeptidase protects from vascular dysfunction and promotes vascular repair
… formation following wire injury of the femoral artery. In sum, this work suggests PRCP protects from the pathological manifestations of vascular dysfunction and promotes angiogenesis and large vessel repair.

Analysis of local hemodynamics in central and peripheral arteries
… hemodynamics of the ascending aorta, the carotid artery and the femoral artery by analysing human, animal and in vitro data. Also, another aim is to introduce a technique for non-invasive determination of the local arterial distensibility, the wave speed, and wave intensities. Arterial …

Evidence for Absence of Latchbridge Formation in Phasic Saphenous Artery
… mechanisms of force maintenance in a phasic artery by comparing KCl-induced contractions in the tonic, femoral artery (FA) and its primary branch, the phasic saphenous artery (SA). KCl rapidly (5 N/m2) and [ca2+]i (250 nM) in FA and SA. By 10 min, [ca2+]i declined to 175 nM in both tissues …

The fate of proximally excluded iliac arteries following open repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms
… a progressive entity. Concomitant iliac artery aneurysms have been noted to occur in 15-40% of patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs). As a result, following open AAA repair, there is a concern regarding the progressive enlargement of the iliac arteries. The aim of this study was …

Technique for Repeatable Hyperosmotic Blood-Brain Barrier Disruption in the Dog
… catheter was directed into the internal carotid artery via the femoral artery in ten dogs. BBBD was achieved in 5 dogs using 25% mannitol while 5 control dogs received only saline. Following recovery, dogs were monitored for clinical signs before a second, non-survival procedure was performed 2-3 …

Acceleration of Subtractive Non-contrast-enhanced Magnetic Resonance Angiography
… a particular focus on three-dimensional (3D) femoral artery fresh blood imaging (FBI). The structure of the thesis is as follows: Chapter 1 describes the anatomy and physiology of the vascular system, including the characteristics of arteries and veins, and the MR properties and flow …
