One consequence of the influence of certain flavonoids on capillary resistance and their possible involvement as an obligatory factor for the maintenance of capillary integrity was their designation as a specific nutritional factor — and not merely as an adjunct to ascorbic acid action. They were collectively termed vitamin P [27] or bioflavonoids. The term vitamin P continued in use until 1950 when the Joint Committee on Nomenclature of the American Society of Biological Chemists and the American Institute of Nutrition recommended its... 

Horse chestnut extracts, notably aescin, have anti-inflammatory, antiedematous, antiexudative, and venotonic activities. The clinical pharmacology of horse chestnut and aescin has been the subject of many recent reviews. Aescin was found to be responsible for the antiexudative and edema-protective activity. Aescin acts on the capillary membrane, normalizing vascular permeability, enhancing capillary resistance, and reducing the outflow of fluid into the extracapillary space. Aescin has a sealing venotonic effect on the capillaries and reduces the number and diameter of the small pores of the capillary wall by which exchange of water occurs. In vitro. 

For candidate selection several factors have to be assessed low left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction, right ventricular dysfunction, the New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class, ventricular arrhythmias, measurement of functional capacity with determination of maximal oxygen consumption, hemodynamic measurements, pulmonary capillary resistance and the neurohumoral activation resulting from congestive heart failure (elevated plasma norepinephrine levels) (Aaron-SON et al. 1997 Doval et al. 1996 Gradman and Deedwania 1994 MANCiNietal. 1991 Stevenson et al. 1990). 

If a pressure measuring device were run inside the capillary, an oil gradient would be measured in the oil column. A pressure discontinuity would be apparent across the interface (the difference being the capillary pressure), and a water gradient would be measured below the interface. If the device also measured resistivity, a contact would be determined at this interface, and would be described as the oil-water contact (OWC). Note that if oil and water pressure measurements alone were used to construct a pressure-depth plot, and the gradient intercept technigue was used to determine an interface, it is the free water level which would be determined, not the OWC. 

The normal coronary system consists of large epicardial or surface vessels (Rj) that offer little resistance to myocardial flow and intramyocardial arteries and arterioles (R2), which branch into a dense capillary network to supply basal blood flow (Fig. 11-1). Under normal circumstances, the resistance in R2 is much greater than that in Rj. Myocardial blood flow is inversely related to arteriolar resistance and directly related to the coronary driving pressure. 

Thomson-Freundlich equation relates the solubility of a particle to its curvature radius (e.g., Swalin, 1962). Using this equation, Kirkaldy and Young (1987) show how periodic precipitation may result from the capillary resistance of the matrix to grow small precipitates. Formally, the conditions read... 

In practice, the tip of the capillary is placed as close to the working electrode as possible. There are seen to be two portions of solution between the WE and RE, i.e. analyte solution between the electrode and the capillary tip and KCl solution within the capillary itself. The resistance of the internal KCl solution is negligible, so only the short length of analyte solution is deemed to have a resistance - and only a few mm separate the tip and the surface of the WE. 

Some ACEIs have demonstrated a beneficial effect on the severity of heart failure and an improvement in maximal exercise tolerance in patients with heart failure. In these patients, ACEIs significantly decrease peripheral (systemic vascular) resistance, BP (afterload), pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (preload), pulmonary vascular resistance and heart size and increase cardiac output and exercise tolerance time. 

According to this equation, W is a function of the voltage U squared and the resistance R. The resistance itself depends on the length L, the diameter of the capillary d, and the buffer conductivity k ...
