A comprehensive review the state-of-the-art in atherosclerosis of the arteries of the legs and feet. The authors discuss in detail the primary symptom-claudication-an intermittent pain in the leg or foot while walking, its predisposing factors, the current diagnostic methodologies, the impressive advances in the therapeutic armamentarium, and the need to screen for co-existing coronary artery disease. Additional chapters describe cutting-edge noninvasive angiography and vascular flow studies, specific drug therapy for claudication, regression of atherosclerosis therapy, gene therapy, and drug eluting stents for peripheral arterial disease. The authors also examine the epidemiology of LEAD, the effects of smoking and effective smoking cessation programs, its pathogenesis and its association with lipid abnormalities and hypertension, aggressive risk factor modification, and the need to measure the ankle brachial index of every patient over 45.

Book Description:

Acute surgical emergencies constitute one of the main clinical aspects that a doctor in hospital practice is expected to handle and manage. This book addresses some of the important and common acute surgical conditions, and has been written from an Asian perspective, with extensive experimental input from practices that are more common in Europe and America. Various aspects of surgical emergencies, ranging from clinical condition to diagnosis and management, are discussed.

Acute Surgical Management will be suitable for institutional clinicians and medical students, and should be especially useful to those who have some contact with patients with surgical conditions. This would include surgeons (and basic or advanced surgical trainees), emergency specialists, anaesthetists and intensivists, as well as various surgical sub-specialists.

Book Description:
The last decade, technical improvements will have changed the inventory of many research laboratories. New techniques and discoveries continuously give rise to observations that consequently result in the definition of new research objectives. In the past, research departments used to be clearly demarcated. Nowadays, technology that is shared by all lines of research stimulates convergence of research interests. This also applies to cardiovascular research. Vascular occlusive disease is now core business for researchers employed by cardiology, vascular surgery, vascular medicine, radiology, cell biology, chemistry, physiology and many more departments. Knowledge on actual research developments are shared by researchers with different skills. It is sometimes difficult to acquire expertise when a researcher feels his experimental work could be improved by introducing a new research technique. In this book the investigator will find an overview of recent developments that are relevant for research in general but cardiovascular research in particular. Genomics, proteomics, micro-array, RNAi, stem cells and progenitor cells: just some phrases that became increasingly prevalent in literature the last couple of years and that are recognized by many, but fully understood by few. In this book experts in their research fields will share the most appreciated new developments and techniques in cardiovascular research. We hope that this book will help the reader, who is working in cardiovascular research, to understand and critically appreciate current research and that it will help improve the quality of the experimental work.

Dynamics of the Vascular System

Dynamics of the Vascular System

By John K-J Li
Publisher: World Scientific Publishing Company
Number Of Pages: 272
Publication Date: 2004-04
Sales Rank: 1340476
ISBN / ASIN: 9810249071
EAN: 9789810249076
Binding: Hardcover Book Description:

Recent advances in vascular biology and vascular engineering have led to the understanding and integration of the two fields. A feature that is fundamental to both is the dynamic aspects of the vascular system. Although the basic principles governing blood flow and the circulatory function are known, new approaches to examining the interaction of different parts of the vascular system have emerged. These include measurement techniques and quantitative methods with greater use of modern technology and computer modeling. An obvious need therefore exists for a book that deals specifically with the dynamics of the vascular system.

This book begins with the historical discoveries of the features of the vascular system and its importance in the overall circulatory function. Modern aspects of vascular biology in terms of structure and function are then described, followed by the introduction of physical principles and basic fluid mechanics for quantitative analysis. The hemodynamics of large arteries, the optimal structure of vascular branching and the pulsatile energy transmission and modeling aspects are elaborated. These are extended to analyze the function of the venous system and the microcirculation. Finally, the integrated vascular system and its response and adaptation to diseased conditions, such as aging, stenosis, hypertension, myocardial ischemia, atheroslerosis and stroke are explained. The overall emphasis is on the dynamic nature of the vascular system.
