Blood vessel

The stent is inserted into the artery by balloon angioplasty, to expand the vessel walls in order to return blood flow back to normal. There are two types of stents, bare-metal stents and drug-eluting stents. Once a BMS is inserted into the vessel, it become fully endothelialized.. However, The animation explains that in about 1/3 of BMS implants, restenosis occurs. On the other hand DES were developed to combat

factor for all types of cardiovascular diseases is high blood pressure. When large amounts of force is exerted against the arteries, high blood pressure occurs which puts individuals at risk of stroke, heart attack, coronary artery disease, and other cardiovascular conditions. High blood pressure has no symptoms and can often go undetected in a person for years until it is too late. Because of this, it is highly important for people to have their blood pressure checked regularly. A

the most common disease in the world, it is the most common leading causes of deaths in both men and women; although, it has a higher risk in men than women. CAD develops when the coronary arteries become blocked in the major blood vessels that supply the heart with the blood and oxygen that the heart needs. The blockage or build up in the coronary arteries is caused by plaque which is a fatty deposits of cholesterol. The plaque in arteries are inflammation and it is usually to blame for CAD. However

to blood pressure. I will take my blood pressure as well as my mother’s and discuss the correlations between blood pressure and lifestyle, stress level or activity level. Last, I will discuss how I will incorporate this knowledge in my future training endeavors. Blood pressure is defined as the force exerted by the blood against the inner walls of the blood vessels. Determined by the flow blood and resistance to that flow. It is expressed by systolic pressure over diastolic pressure. Blood pressure

Lung Cancer! Stillbirth! Diabetes! Blindness! Do I have your attention now? In this paper I will explore the negative effects that tobacco has on the body.

Why would your risk your eyesight? Can you prevent all of this by simply not smoking? No, but why increase the risks. Everyday the age of kids start to use

Blood Brain Barrier One of the most important properties of BBB is that it separates the brain tissue from the blood circulation of the CNS. By that it consists of three parts: the layer of endothelial cells connected through tight junctions, basal membrane, and astrocytes and pericytes. Its main function is it only select molecules to pass from the bloodstream into the fluid that bathes the brain, whereas vital nutrients get in, toxins and pathogens are blocked. Formed by endothelial

pathological processes of the cardiovascular system has now become a rapidly evolving field [24]. One of the major challenges in cardiovascular disease is the identification of reliable biomarkers. The discovery that microRNAs circulate in a stable form in blood, suggests that they can serve as a new generation of biomarkers for cardiovascular disease [25] . Both TFs and miRNAs are involved in the regulation of various biological processes. Thus, the dysregulation of TFs and miRNAs is associated with many

british man named Dr. William Morant Baker. A baker’s cyst also known as a popliteal cyst is located in the middle of the semimembranosus tendon and medial head of the gastrocnemius muscle (Snir, 2013). Sometimes the Baker’s cyst can be mistaken for a blood clot because it presents the same symptoms. A magnetic resonance imaging scan (MRI) can determine if the patient indeed has a cyst on the back of their leg. Other tests may be done to make sure that the cyst is not a malignant or benign tumor before

across the globe, especially because of its increase in low and middle income countries. The disease is commonly referred to as heart disease since it’s a group of diseases that involve the heart, blood vessels or both. Generally, the disease involves abnormal functioning of the heart of blood vessels, which increases the risk of heart failure, heart attack, cardiac rhythm issues, stroke, and unexpected death. These problems in turn contribute to reduced quality of life and declining life expectancy

Features are essential for any classification or analysis in image processing. There are many types of features which can be extracted from the images each gives its identical informations about the image. Here MA region supposed with properties such as shape, color and size which appears as a dark red colored circle shape. To identify MA and non- MA region feature vectors are formed for each candidate regions. The classification is the final process which classifies the result (I.e, Normal, Abnormal
