In blood vessels, relaxation of vascular smooth muscles lead to vasodilation and increased blood flow.
This leads to poor blood flow in the placenta.
The narrowing of the blood vessels leads to decreased blood flow, which can injure nerves and other tissues.
Diabetes damages small blood vessels throughout the body, leading to reduced blood flow.
The process might at first seem illogical, as low oxygen levels should theoretically lead to increased blood flow to the lungs to receive increased gaseous exchange.
Intensive treatment of gum disease may lead to improved blood flow and significantly reduced inflammation in the body, a new study reports.
Restenosis literally means the recurrence of stenosis, a narrowing of a blood vessel, leading to restricted blood flow.
It is thought that cerebral vascular resistance is reduced, leading to increased blood flow to the brain.
Mitral insufficiency leads to turbulent blood flow and increased pressure in the left atrium.
This ultimately leads to a reduction in the haemodynamic response and less blood flow in the brain.
