Endothelial Nitric Oxide Concentration and Its Implications in Carotid Artery Atherosclerosis – An Integrated Cell/Haemodynamics Approach
Atherosclerotic plaques are believed to develop where the bioavailability of nitric oxide (NO) is low. Based on that plaques often localise in the specific regions of vasculature where wall shear stress (WSS) ...

A Polynomial-Time Perfect Sampler for the Q-Ising with a Vertex-Independent Noise
We present a polynomial-time perfect sampler for the Q-Ising with a vertex-independent noise. The Q-Ising, one of the generalized models of the Ising, arose in the context of Bayesian image restoration in statist...

An Assessment of Progression of Brain Edema with Amino Acid Levels in Cerebrospinal Fluid and Changes in Electroencephalogram in an Adult Cat Model of Cold Brain Injury
We investigated the relationship between the changes of the electroencephalogram (EEG) and concentration of amino acids (AAs) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) using a model of cold brain injury. A cold injury was ...
