(1) Background: internal jugular vein thrombosis (IJVthr) is a potentially life-threating
disease but no comprehensive reviews on etiology, symptomatology, diagnosis and current …

Extended exposure to radiation, microgravity, and isolation during space exploration has
significant physiological, structural, and psychosocial effects on astronauts, and particularly …

Substance transportation and clearance in the brain extracellular space (ECS) is crucial to
brain function, but simulated microgravity disrupts substance diffusion and clearance in the …

Cerebral venous outflow is investigated in the diagnosis of heart failure through the
monitoring of jugular venous pulse, an indicator to assess cardiovascular diseases. The …

In situ evaluation of human brain performance and arousal remains challenging during
operational circumstances, hence the need for a rapid, reliable and reproducible tool. Here …

Background: Testicular aches have been reported to occur on exposure to high altitude
(HA). As a painful expression of venous congestion at the pampiniform plexus, varicocele …

The jugular venous pulse (JVP) is a one of the crucial parameters of efficient cardiovascular
function. Nowadays, limited data are available regarding the response of JVP to exercise …

We present a novel application of strain-gauge plethysmography that is suitable to detect
blood volume variations in the human venous system. The plethysmography system uses …

In this paper an original reasoning about the post processing elaboration of medical studies
is presented. The aim is to suggest a method to extrapolate numerical information from …
