A new perspective on cardiovascular function and dysfunction during endurance exercise: identifying the primary cause of cardiovascular risk by Amine Souissi, Ismail Dergaa, Samia Ernez Hajri, Karim Chamari, Helmi Ben Saad

“…The rise in heart rate in response to thermal stress is a cardiovascular response that increases cardiac output and skin blood flow. The cardiovascular response during endurance exercise is a complex phenomenon potentially influenced by the involvement of nitric oxide in active thermoregulatory vasodilation. …”

Color Doppler Score: A New Approach for Monitoring a Large Placental Chorioangioma by Maria Angelica Zoppi, Alessandra Piras, Ambra Iuculano, Maurizio Arras, Federica Mulas, Maria Carmela Fadda, Sergio Cossu, Giovanni Monni

“…We employed color Doppler score as an innovative approach for the prenatal diagnosis and monitoring of a large placental chorioangioma case diagnosed at 26 weeks and the subjective semiquantitative assessment of the vascularization. The blood flow was assessed by a color Doppler score based on the intensity of the color signal with the following value ranges: (1) no flow, (2) minimal flow, (3) moderate flow, and (4) high vascular flow. …”

A Case Report of Obstructive Shock from an Esophageal Bolus Leading to Left Atrial Compression by Sharmin Kalam, Sergio Marquez, Emmelyn J. Samones, Tammy Phan, Vi Am Dinh

“…Introduction: Obstructive shock results from reduced cardiac output due to physical blockage of blood flow, such as cardiac tamponade. Cardiac tamponade compresses cardiac chambers, particularly the left atrium, causing decreased end-diastolic volume and cardiac output. …”
