Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Laws and Mechanics of Circulation: With the Principle Involved in Animal Movement 3. The Harveian theory of the circulation, 1628, but no explanation of the portal circulation and for maintaining it in correspondence with the absorptive processes for producing a balance, otherwise impossible; no explanation of the tissue-circulation or that connected with the cell-brood, the objective point for all the commerce, the cells being the workmen in the tissues; a vaso-motor system of nerves, but not competent to explain the phenomena manifested through them; no attempt to explain the numerous muscles and nerves (unknown to Harvey) to the vessels. 4. Numerous physiological experiments upon the nerves, muscles, blood-vessels, etc., by means of which deeply interesting phenomena are developed, but their relevancy to any fundamental circumstance in the organism, or connection with one another by reason of any principle in the mechanics, not shown; illustrated by explanatory cuts showing the mode of procedure. Traube's Curves are beyond its reach; so also the blood-pressure curves and the curves of intra-thora pressure. It offers no solution for the existence of "inhibitor" and "accelerator" nerves to the heart. It cannot explain the anatomy in the intestines, and why there should be a diaphragm in the mammalia only. It cannot get fat, albumen, alcohol or any non-dializable substance into the body, yet they are rapidly absorbed and the explanation easy. More or less remarks upon muscular irritability and contractility, but nothing of dualism in the muscles, without which musculation would be utterly impossible, etc., etc. The books large enough, too; some of them a thousand pages, nearly, fine press. No grasp, no continuity of relations, all differing, but as far as possible from a philosophy. Each one following the train of facts he is most familiar with (compelled to it in the absence of a guiding principle), fitting the others into the text as best he can to make a book, at times apparently as though tumbled in at random till the book is big enough; vain strivings for order and method, however, discernible. The result nil. (I would like to make exceptions, but cannot; though some of the books have remarkable excellence, and it wounds one to the heart to say aught against them.) With all this, wrong teaching most pernicious, doing irreparable harm to some minds, worse than night-blindness, for that would suffer the unfortunate to see by day light, but this by no light whatever; but to any mind the work of unlearning and starting afresh is most difficult, next to impossible, accomplished only by persistent and heroic effort. For example, respiration and circulation form a connected movement for supplying the cell-brood in the tissues and removing waste products; but the physiologies treat them separately, basing circulation upon the heart, respiration upon the diaphragm. By what right is that done? No right; none. The birds, reptilia, and the rest of them, have no diaphragm; nevertheless, they respire; besides, produce vocal resonance characteristic of them, showing that respiration is also under voluntary control, the same as in mammalia.

Download or read book Regulation of Tissue Oxygenation Second Edition written by Roland N. Pittman and published by Biota Publishing. This book was released on 2016-08-18 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This presentation describes various aspects of the regulation of tissue oxygenation, including the roles of the circulatory system, respiratory system, and blood, the carrier of oxygen within these components of the cardiorespiratory system. The respiratory system takes oxygen from the atmosphere and transports it by diffusion from the air in the alveoli to the blood flowing through the pulmonary capillaries. The cardiovascular system then moves the oxygenated blood from the heart to the microcirculation of the various organs by convection, where oxygen is released from hemoglobin in the red blood cells and moves to the parenchymal cells of each tissue by diffusion. Oxygen that has diffused into cells is then utilized in the mitochondria to produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the energy currency of all cells. The mitochondria are able to produce ATP until the oxygen tension or PO2 on the cell surface falls to a critical level of about 4–5 mm Hg. Thus, in order to meet the energetic needs of cells, it is important to maintain a continuous supply of oxygen to the mitochondria at or above the critical PO2 . In order to accomplish this desired outcome, the cardiorespiratory system, including the blood, must be capable of regulation to ensure survival of all tissues under a wide range of circumstances. The purpose of this presentation is to provide basic information about the operation and regulation of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems, as well as the properties of the blood and parenchymal cells, so that a fundamental understanding of the regulation of tissue oxygenation is achieved.
Download or read book The Cerebral Circulation written by Marilyn J. Cipolla and published by Biota Publishing. This book was released on 2016-07-28 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This e-book will review special features of the cerebral circulation and how they contribute to the physiology of the brain. It describes structural and functional properties of the cerebral circulation that are unique to the brain, an organ with high metabolic demands and the need for tight water and ion homeostasis. Autoregulation is pronounced in the brain, with myogenic, metabolic and neurogenic mechanisms contributing to maintain relatively constant blood flow during both increases and decreases in pressure. In addition, unlike peripheral organs where the majority of vascular resistance resides in small arteries and arterioles, large extracranial and intracranial arteries contribute significantly to vascular resistance in the brain. The prominent role of large arteries in cerebrovascular resistance helps maintain blood flow and protect downstream vessels during changes in perfusion pressure. The cerebral endothelium is also unique in that its barrier properties are in some way more like epithelium than endothelium in the periphery. The cerebral endothelium, known as the blood-brain barrier, has specialized tight junctions that do not allow ions to pass freely and has very low hydraulic conductivity and transcellular transport. This special configuration modifies Starling's forces in the brain microcirculation such that ions retained in the vascular lumen oppose water movement due to hydrostatic pressure. Tight water regulation is necessary in the brain because it has limited capacity for expansion within the skull. Increased intracranial pressure due to vasogenic edema can cause severe neurologic complications and death.

Download or read book The Mechanics of the Circulation written by Colin G. Caro and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 552 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Continuing demand for this book confirms that it remains relevant over 30 years after its first publication. The fundamental explanations are largely unchanged, but in the new introduction to this second edition the authors are on hand to guide the reader through major advances of the last three decades. With an emphasis on physical explanation rather than equations, Part I clearly presents the background mechanics. The second part applies mechanical reasoning to the component parts of the circulation: blood, the heart, the systemic arteries, microcirculation, veins and the pulmonary circulation. Each section demonstrates how an understanding of basic mechanics enhances our understanding of the function of the circulation as a whole. This classic book is of value to students, researchers and practitioners in bioengineering, physiology and human and veterinary medicine, particularly those working in the cardiovascular field, and to engineers and physical scientists with multidisciplinary interests.

Download or read book Circulation and Control written by Marie-Stéphanie Delamaire and published by Open Book Publishers. This book was released on 2021-10-08 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The nineteenth century witnessed a series of revolutions in the production and circulation of images. From lithographs and engraved reproductions of paintings to daguerreotypes, stereoscopic views, and mass-produced sculptures, works of visual art became available in a wider range of media than ever before. But the circulation and reproduction of artworks also raised new questions about the legal rights of painters, sculptors, engravers, photographers, architects, collectors, publishers, and subjects of representation (such as sitters in paintings or photographs). Copyright and patent laws tussled with informal cultural norms and business strategies as individuals and groups attempted to exert some degree of control over these visual creations. With contributions by art historians, legal scholars, historians of publishing, and specialists of painting, photography, sculpture, and graphic arts, this rich collection of essays explores the relationship between intellectual property laws and the cultural, economic, and technological factors that transformed the pictorial landscape during the nineteenth century. This book will be valuable reading for historians of art and visual culture; legal scholars who work on the history of copyright and patent law; and literary scholars and historians who work in the field of book history. It will also resonate with anyone interested in current debates about the circulation and control of images in our digital age.
