What is a DVT and how does it develop? What is the relationship between DVT and PE (pulmonary emboli)? What is atrial systole, and what is ventricular systole? Which is stronger? What type of membrane is the pleural membrane? Which one is greater the oxygen concentration in pulmonary arteri...
To minimize the formation of emboli and the risk of strokes, anticoagulants can be prescribed. Anticoagulants dilute the blood and minimize the chance that blood clots are formed. But they also increase the risk of bleeding. Doctors must therefore carefully outweigh the risks and benefits for each...
Pulmonary Embolism: What is it and Why Does it Occur? from Chapter 9 / Lesson 14 27K Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that occurs when blood clots form in veins deep inside the body, usually in the legs. While these clots can be painful, they are far more dangerous if ...

Ventriculoatrial shunting (VAS) is a procedure used to treat hydrocephalus that enables the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) to flow from the brain to the heart's atrium. Ventriculoatrial shunting (VAS) is a procedure that allows the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) to flow from the brain to the atrium ...
Emboli from injection drug use are caused by vascular damage or contracting Streptococcus. Liver Disease Serum levels for the liver enzyme ALT are 46.7% higher on average in users than in non-users [28]. 0.5-1 gram of use results in AST liver enzyme levels 43.0 [29]. ...

The pathogenesis of long COVID syndrome is poorly understood, but initial and persistent vascular endothelial injury that often triggers the formation of microthrombi that if dislodged as emboli, damage several organs, especially in the brain, heart and kidney, by creating microinfarcts. The other...
