ASVDs, a subgroup of cardiovascular disease, are the current leading causes of death worldwide, primarily due to heart attacks and strokes.

The workings of the small intestine have long been a mystery, but now we are discovering the hidden roles this organ plays in appetite, metabolism and the microbiome – and how to look after it better ...

Researchers have shown that intestinal bacteria and their metabolites contribute directly to vascular aging. As people age, the bacterial composition in their gut changes, resulting in fewer ...

The aging of the innermost cell layer of blood vessels leads to cardiovascular diseases. Researchers have now shown for the first time that intestinal bacteria and their metabolites contribute ...

The aging of the innermost cell layer of blood vessels leads to cardiovascular diseases. Researchers at UZH have now shown for the first time that intestinal bacteria and their metabolites ...

A new report in Cell Reports Medicine says that bowel movement frequency (BMF) "directly impacts" the gut microbiome and "is linked to diseases like chronic kidney disease or dementia" ...

As to its variant forms, there was a greater predominance of SMA originating the right hepatic artery. Current surgical procedures, including transplants, vascular reconstructions as well as abdominal ...

Researchers have developed a rapid 3D photoacoustic tomography (PAT) scanner for high-resolution vascular imaging, enabling fast and detailed visualization of the microvasculature.

The mesenteric arteries and veins were free of emboli and thrombi. Microscopical examination of the small and large intestine showed extensive mucosal necrosis, with marked vascular congestion.

If the diameter of the semicircle is larger than the diameter of the small intestine, the small intestine may herniate into the vascular ring due to peristalsis, thus forming an internal abdominal ...
