Aneurysms are persistent, localized dilatations of the vessel wall, classified according to shape or etiology. True aneurysms are formed by the dilatation of the constituents of the vessel wall which exhibits profound structural alterations. In contradis

83 Often, arterial insufficiency is not treated early in its progression because symptoms do not commonly present until the disease is in its later stages.84 Etiology Arterial insufficiency ulcers result from ischemia due to lack of arterial blood flow supplying the area of the wound. The most ...
1 Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease in humans that results in the selective death of both upper and lower motor neurones. ROS have been implicated in the mechanism of neuronal injury in ALS, based on the evidence that mutations of the superoxide dismutase (SOD)...
HO-1, the inducible form of HO, is induced by various stimuli, including reactive oxygen species (ROS) and proinflammatory cytokines.1 Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease in humans that results in the selective death of both upper and lower motor neurones. ROS ...

Correlation between ASL, PET, and electrophysiological data has been shown in patients with interictal hypoperfusion in surgically intractable epilepsy [203] and tuberous sclerosis [204]. PASL also compares favourably to PET and electrical source imaging in identifying the epileptogenic zone [205], ...
