This study shows that cocoa flavanols can preserve endothelial function during sitting, suggesting dietary strategies to ...

One of the most serious forms is called coronary artery disease. This happens when fat and other substances, called plaque, build up inside the arteries. These arteries are like tubes that carry blood ...

3D printed blood vessels on glass that mimic blood vessel anatomy and the fluid dynamics of blood flow could be an invaluable tool in studying the causes of stroke, new research from a University of ...

Researchers headed by a team at ETH Zurich have developed a magnetically guided microrobotics system that they say can navigate the body’s intricate passageways and vasculature to deliver drugs with ...

ABSTRACT: We propose a new section-averaged one-dimensional model for blood flows in deformable arteries. The model is derived from the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations, written in ...

A new ultrasound-based imaging tech has been developed to map the organ blood flow in four dimensions (3D + time) — a level of detail previously unattainable. This new medical imaging tech could ...

In a medical robotics breakthrough, scientists at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne (EPFL) have built a new kind of microcatheter that can hitch a ride on the bloodstream to navigate ...

HIV and warfarin dose in DVT Arterial occlusion is a blockage of any artery that limits blood flow to limbs or organs. Patients with acute-onset peripheral arterial occlusion will note sudden, severe ...

Researchers at NYU Langone Health discovered that cutting off blood flow accelerates cancer growth by prematurely aging the bone marrow and weakening the immune system. In mouse models, restricted ...

A 74-year-old man presents to the emergency department with a 1-day history of severe chest and back pain. He has a history of hypertension and has run out of medication. He has no history of similar ...
