Arterial dissections become life-threatening when growth of the false lumen prevents perfusion of the true lumen and the related end organs. For example, in an aortic dissection, if the left subclavian artery orifice were distal to the origin of the dissection, then the left subclavian would be said to be perfused by the false lumen, while the left common carotid (and its end organ, the left ...
Small vessels like vasa vasorum and vasa nervorum are particularly susceptible to external mechanical compression, [10] and thus are involved in pathogenesis of peripheral vascular and nerve diseases. A tear in vasa vasorum situated in tunica media layer of aorta may start pathologic cascade of events leading to aortic dissection. [4]
In the study of the biological sciences, biocommunication is any specific type of communication within (intraspecific) or between (interspecific) species of plants, animals, fungi, [1] protozoa and microorganisms. [2] Communication means sign-mediated interactions following three levels of rules (syntactic, pragmatic and semantic).
In vertebrates, the circulatory system is a system of organs that includes the heart, blood vessels, and blood which is circulated throughout the body. [1] [2] It includes the cardiovascular system, or vascular system, that consists of the heart and blood vessels (from Greek kardia meaning heart, and Latin vascula meaning vessels).
A key principle in the dissection of human cadavers (sometimes called androtomy) is the prevention of human disease to the dissector.Prevention of transmission includes the wearing of protective gear, ensuring the environment is clean, dissection technique [2] and pre-dissection tests to specimens for the presence of HIV and hepatitis viruses. [3]
What action Antifa takes when those policies go into place isn’t clear. Most of the Antifa activists interviewed for this story talked in terms of “lines being crossed” or gauntlets being ...
Blood vessels are the tubular structures of a circulatory system that transport blood throughout a vertebrate's body. [1] Blood vessels transport blood cells, nutrients, and oxygen to most of the tissues of a body. They also take waste and carbon dioxide away from the tissues. [2]
