Abstract Background Cancer treatments such as chemotherapy and radiotherapy significantly impact the cardiovascular system. While cardiac toxicity is well characterized, the effects on the aorta, the body’s largest art...

Background: The curvature of the aortic arch is associated with the risk of endoleak formation after thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR). However, the adequate assessment of the angles of the aorta continues to r...

OBJECTIVE: We aimed to evaluate the prevalence and clinical correlations of intradialytic hypertension (IDHT) in chronic hemodialysis (HD) patients. MATERIAL and METHODS: Seventy-six patients who had been receiving he...

Dissecting aneurysm should be thought in differential diagnosis of acute renal failure which developed in the patients with hypertension.

Even though radiocontrast nephropathy is usually the most common cause of acute renal failure (ARF) following invasive vascular interventions, cholesterol embolism should be considered in the differential diagnosis. It i...

Nutcracker syndrome is a rare condition that manifests itself with abdominal pain and hematuria, usually resulting in compression of left renal vein between the aorta and the superior mesenteric artery. It is mostly seen...

Simulators for aortic dissection diagnosis are limited by complex anatomy influencing the accuracy of point-of-care ultrasound for diagnosing aortic dissection. Therefore, this study aimed to create a healthy ascending a...

ABSTRACT Although the white-eared opossum is frequently observed in both rural and urban environments, there is little anatomical knowledge about this marsupial species. To our knowledge, there are no descriptions of its...

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a disease characterized by hyperglycemia and impaired glucose, protein, and fat metabolism due to insulin deficiency or resistance. In type 2 DM, insulin resistance potentially causes dyslipidem...

Objetivos: Avaliar a eficiência do exame dopplervelocimétrico no diagnóstico do bem-estar fetal. Metodologia: Foram analisadas 130 gestantes atendidas no Serviço de Ultra-Sonografia do Centro de Atenção Integral à...

ABSTRACT Were used twelve (12) adult anteaters (Myrmecophaga tridactyla), adults, 6 (six) males and 6 (six) females, weighing from 20 to 27.32kg from free life. The thoracic cavity was opened until visualization of the w...

Cholesterol Embolization Syndrome (CES) is a systemic disorder due to cholesterol crystal embolization from atherosclerotic plaques of the aorta and its major branches to the small arterioles, resulting in local ischemia...

Abstract Circumaortic left renal vein (CLRV) is a rare variation in which two renal veins encircle the aorta prior to draining into the inferior vena cava (IVC) and can be classified into three types based on branching p...

Background Noninvasive diagnosis of pulmonary hypertension (PH) primarily relies upon Doppler echocardiography of tricuspid regurgitation (TR). However, TR might be absent or difficult to measure. Hypothesis/Objectives T...

Introduction: Renal vascularisation variants differ significantly between individuals due to the complex embryogenesis of the kidneys. Understanding the anatomy of the renal vascular pattern is essential for conducting v...

Due to the current shortage of organ donors a coalescence of surgical techniques has been applied in an attempt to use all compatible organs that may have been discarded due to anatomical variations, disease or damage, a...

The left atrium (LA) was evaluated through the bidimensional method (2-D) (short axis) and the relation left atrium:aorta (LA:Ao) in a group of 40 healthy adult dogs between 1.5 and 7 years of age and weights ranging fro...

This study was conducted to investigate the ability of green tea as antioxidant and antiatherogenic in female rats after treated with 0.5o/o of H20 2 in order to induced atherosclerosis. The results showed capability o...

A principios de la década de 1980, distintas investigaciones se centraron en identificar nuevos factores vasoactivos. En 1980, Furchgott y Zawadzki demostraron que las células endoteliales modulan el tono vascular medi...

Chronic renal failure (CRF, is characterized by the deterioration of excretion and endocrine function of the kidney . Cardiac preload and afterload at isotropic period are influenced by these changes. Hemodialysis (HD) a...

A 41-year old male patient was admitted to our hospital with the complaints of reduced urine, swelling and increased urea and creatinine values. Bilateral hydronephrosis was detected by ultrasonography, but the surroundi...

This study was conducted to measure kidney size in Van cats using ultrasonography and to investigate the incidence of polycystic kidney disease (PKD). The study's animal material consisted of 80 Van cats of different age...

Abstract Background Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic inflammatory disorder marked by spinal ossification that leads to progressive thoracolumbar kyphosis (TLK). We previously introduced vertebral body compression...

ABSTRACT This study was conducted to determined the effect of curcuma longa (C-longa) as antioxidant and antiatherogenic in male rats after treated with 0.5% hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in order to induced atherosclerosis o...
