Static Mechanical Characteristics of the Small Collecting Vein and the First-Order Venule in the Denervated Small Intestines of the Wistar, Wistar-Kyoto, and Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats
… The first related to the mechanics of the venous system, the second to venous function in hypertension. Since the venous system holds a large fraction of the total peripheral blood volume (and much of this possibly located in the venous microcirculation), and understanding of venule …

Studies of vascular function in patients with heart failure and either preserved or reduced left ventricular systolic function
… failure have preserved left ventricular systolic function (HF-PSF). Invasive studies utilising cardiac catheterisation have demonstrated that patients with HF-PSF have abnormalities of left ventricular (LV) relaxation and filling, or LV diastolic dysfunction. As a result, it has been proposed that …

Changes in venomotor tone during sympathoexcitation: influence of gender and female cycle phase
… distended due to gravitational pooling and venous return is decreased. An increase in leg venomotor tone would assist in countering pooling and help to maintain a pressure gradient for forward flow. Quantifiable proof of active venoconstriction in humans is sparse with the majority of work …

Cardiovascular function in animal models of metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes : the role of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS)
… to be associated with compromised cardiovascular function in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced type 1 diabetes. The aim of the project is to investigate cardiovascular abnormalities in a rat model of type 2 diabetes (Zucker diabetes fatty or ZDF rats) and two models of metabolic syndrome (fructose-fed …

Arterial and venous adaptations to short-term handgrip exercise training
… inflow (Ainf) [r=0.54; p=0.012] and resting venous outflow (Vout) [r=0.56; p=0.016]. Lastly, HG strength was associated with Vcap [r=0.57; p=0.007] and Vout [r=0.67; p=0.001]. The 2nd study examined the relationship between FVF and exercise tolerance (ExT) in 20 patients with HF [age: 59 ± 13 …
