Measurement of the total retinal blood flow using dual beam Fourier-domain Doppler optical coherence tomography with orthogonal detection planes

TL;DR: The results show a high degree of conformity of venous and arterial flows, which corroborates the validity of the measurements and good agreement with literature data and the large range and high measurement sensitivity point to a high potential for further investigations.

Structure-function relationships in the pulmonary arterial tree

TL;DR: Model simulations demonstrate the sensitivity of model pressure-flow relationships to variations in the morphometric parameters and applied one such method to morphometric data obtained from perfused dog lungs to help put the model parameter values in perspective.

Contemporary Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine

TL;DR: Tin is responsible for the passive and restoring force of the cardiac sarcomere and makes a major contribution to the diastolicwallstressoftheLV, the level of which can be tuned through differential splicing and phosphorylation.

Numerical modeling of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell with tree-like flow field channels based on an entropy generation analysis

TL;DR: In this article, a three-dimensional numerical modeling of a PEM fuel cell with tree-like flow field channels is presented, where the number of bifurcations of the vein and their inclination are considered as parameters for the characterization.

The association between retinal vascular network geometry and cognitive ability in an elderly population

TL;DR: The association of suboptimal retinal vascular network geometry and cognition was shown in this study and supports the concept that the retinal microvasculature acts as a surrogate marker for the cerebral microvaculature.
