Chelation-Ireland Clinic Welcome to the Chelation-Ireland Clinic homepage. What is Chelation Therapy Chelation is How does Chelation therapy work ? The chemical EDTA (ethylene diamine tetra acetic acid) along with vitamins and minerals, is given as an intravenous drip over a period of three hours. EDTA binds with (chelates) and removes, through the kidneys, toxic metals such as lead, excess iron, mercury, aluminium, cadmium and arsenic to name a few. These heavy metals trigger the formation of free radicals which are a major cause of degenerative illnesses, including heart and blood vessel disease. By removing heavy metals, free radical damage is significantly reduced or reversed. EDTA also restores enzymatic function, normalises calcium metabolism, protects the integrity of blood platelets (making them less sticky), encourages metabolic efficiency and helps reestablish prostaglandin hormone balance which in turn prevents arterial spasm, blood clots and plaque formation.

Cerebrovascular Surgery Home Page Faculty and Staff Contact and Referral ... Brain Bypass Surgery Occlusive Vascular Disorders Stroke due to occlusive disease of extra and/or intra cranial vessels can be due to embolic or hemodynamic or a combination. While studies have validated the role of emboli from the cervical carotid artery bifurcation as a cause of stroke, the role of a compromise of hemodynamics has remained less clear. Dr. Howard Yonas has focused much of his effort over the past 20 years to develop the technologies needed to differentiate patients at increased hemodynamic risk. Outcome studies performed by our group were some of the first to define the use of physiological studies for the definition of a group at increased stroke risk. Cerebral blood flow measurements with stable xenon/CT were pioneered at the University of Pittsburgh and this technology is now finding wide utility for the diagnosis of complex cerebrovascular disorders at centers around the world. Cbf study normal baseline and after diamox The treatment of extra cranial carotid disease is a major part of the cerebrovascular surgical effort at UPMC. The neurosurgical team, lead by Dr. Yonas, has evaluated and treated thousands of patients with cervical carotid disease. In order to reduce the risk of vascular evaluation, the team has pursued the use of CT angiography as a 3-D means of characterizing extra as well as intra cranial vascular anatomy. This technology provides high resolution information about plaque morphology that equals and may exceed that provided by invasive angiography and does so with minimal risk. MRI and MR angiograpy are also available as valuable tools that can help in the examination of the cerebral vasculature.

25. Vascular Disorders Vascular. Arteriovenous Malformations. http://www.shef.ac.uk/~ns/vascular.htm

Vascular Arteriovenous Malformations Arteriovenous malformations are a collection of of thin walled blood vessels which are massed together like a tangle of spaghetti (see the pictures). They are a literally a birth mark on the brain, they can occur anywhere on the surface of the brain. There is always a risk of these fragile vessels rupturing and causing a subarachnoid or intracerebral haemorrhage. They can also act as an irritant and produce fits. Treatment for these malformations in the past was either surgery or a wait and see policy if the lesion was in an inaccessible position. If you wish to view the photographs full size click the mouse on the picture concerned. Many studies indicate that Gamma Knife surgery has a high clinical efficacy and a significantly reduced morbidity rate (production of side effects) compared with microsurgery in the treatment of the difficult lesions. The chances of complete obliteration of the lesion is around 90% for small lesions and this percentage decreases as the size of the lesion increases. It is often the treatment of choice for patients not wanting to risk conventional surgery or not able to have surgery. Gamma Knife is also very useful in treating arteriovenous malformations(AVMs) in or near critical structures, such as the brain stem. The Sheffield Centre for Stereotactic Radiosurgery has treated over 2,300 patients with these lesions since 1985.

CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE Common and Challenging Vascular Disorders in the Elderly By Jerry 0. Ciocon, M.D., Sandhya Nemade, M.D., and Diana Galindo, M.D. Vascular changes commonly observed with aging may aggravate several disease processes that may present as leg abnormalities. Leg pain, leg or arm edema, peripheral vascular disease, skin discoloration, and ulcerations are the common complains of the older person. An extensive evaluation may reveal either a local vascular disorder or a more serious systemic illness. These vascular disorders are reviewed, with an emphasis on clinical examination, utilization of appropriate laboratory tests, and discussion on optimal and practical therapy in the older person. Vascular Changes Associated with Aging The incidence of hypertension and atherosclerosis increases with aging; however, the vascular changes observed in aging can occur even in the absence of hypertension and atherosclerosis. Many studies have revealed that aging is associated with marked structural and functional changes of the blood vessel wall. These changes may facilitate persistence and progression of various vascular diseases. Vascular tone and peripheral vascular resistance are determined by vascular smooth muscle cells that contract and relax in response to neurotransmitters and circulating hormones.

The thermal bathing therapy performed at a temperature of 32 - 36° with mainly carbonic or bicarbonate-alkaline water (carbo-gaseous baths), but also sulphate, salty and sodiobrodic, sulphureous water, represents the main component of this treatment. Both for the hydrostatic effect and above all for the peculiar physical-chemical actions contained in the mineral water compositions. The result of the treatment is clearly different from the result that can be obtained with a simple running water bath. The Bathing Therapy is combined with ozontherapy, underwater massage, vascular gymnastics and postural drainage, together with a set of hygienic-dietetic supports that find their complete application in the concept of integral thermal therapy of phlebopathies. The venous pathologies that mostly benefit by the thermal treatments were catalogued by the legislator in generic terms as: "Consequences of chronic phlebopathies".

Venous Disease Section Editor: John Bergan Vascular Disorders: Cinderella Comes to the Ball John Bergan Professor of Surgery UCSD Medical School For a long time, venous disorders have been the poor relation in the family of surgery. When the subject of venous disease is mentioned, physicians and others think only of varicose veins. These are generally regarded as being dull and uninteresting. Yet, a recent study performed in San Diego by Professor Michael Criqui using contemporary methods of evaluation including duplex Doppler ultrasound found that there was a striking prevalence of venous disorders in a community-based population. This population was middle-aged to elderly and it was found that the most common entity occurring in more than 80% of women and half of the men were telangiectasias, commonly known as spider veins or thread veins. In addition, women had twice the prevalence of varicose veins as men. Ethnic differences were also found in this study with Caucasians having the highest prevalence and the black and Asian populations the lowest. At this time, venous disorders are managed by a variety of loosely associated physicians who can be thought of as a multidisciplinary team. Central to their work is a vascular laboratory employing ultrasound technology, which can provide diagnostic information for proper therapeutic planning. Therapeutic options have become increasingly broad. Surgical options have been vastly expanded through employment of radio frequency (RF) energy and quartz laser fibers that perform the task formerly referred to as surgical stripping. The role of injection treatments, or sclerotherapy, has become increasingly well defined, and the advent of duplex ultrasound technology has allowed this to play an important part, both in the operating room and in the clinic where sclerotherapy is practiced. Sclerosant foam is visible on the horizon and may actually replace some saphenous vein surgery.

38. Air Embolism, Vascular Disorders In Plants Press home Press Info contents Press Info Index for the number Presseinfo. August 2001. In brief. Air embolism, vascular disorders in plants. http://www.inra.fr/presse/aout01/gb/nb1.htm

Presse info August 2001 In brief Air embolism, vascular disorders in plants Air embolism, a phenomenon feared by scuba-diving enthusiasts, also occurs in plants. Air bubbles can form in the vessels that transport the water taken up from the soil towards the aboveground parts of the tree, and this can have serious consequences because there is the risk that the leaves will no longer be supplied with water and will therefore dry out irreversibly. Drought and frost are the two climatic factors than can lead to embolism. For the last fifteen years or so, an INRA team has been studying the reasons behind this phenomenon as well as the ability of various tree species to resist it. The information obtained could be used to select tree varieties that can withstand embolism. In plants, pressure in the vascular system is usually low, whereas it is high in animals. Depression in plant vessels is caused by the leaves drawing up water. In fact, leaves function rather like pumps: they take water up from the soil via the tree's conducting vessels, and they release this water into the atmosphere through transpiration. The atmosphere is what drives this pump: the dryer the weather, the more the leaves are subjected to high evaporative demand. Depression can therefore be quite considerable. The vascular system is vulnerable and runs the risk of being drained out if air enters the vessels. Two phenomena are capable of causing embolism: frost and drought. During periods of drought, depression in tree vessels can reach extreme values. Under such conditions, bubbles of air can be drawn in through the vessel walls. This susceptibility to embolism varies considerably from one species to another, and the most resistant are those that are also known to be highly resistant to drought, such as cedar and holm oak for example. When depression in the vessels reaches the threshold for embolism, the plant responds by limiting its water losses: it closes up its stomata, minuscule orifices on the leaf surface, through which the carbon dioxide necessary for growth is absorbed but also through which water is released. The stomatal closure threshold corresponds to the embolism threshold: it would therefore appear that the tree will limit transpiration so as to prevent its conducting vessels from being damaged. Tree resistance to embolism in the summer is indeed an important element in understanding how they adapt to drought.

Worobetz page 555 The most frequent abnormality of circulation to affect the liver is congestive heart failure, which leads to reduced outflow of blood from the liver. Other causes of hepatic congestion include constrictive pericarditis, obstruction of the inferior vena cava and hepatic veins (Budd-Chiari syndrome) and occlusion of the small hepatic veins (veno-occlusive disease). Increased resistance to hepatic venous outflow results in congestive hepatomegaly, dilation of hepatic venules and sinusoids, and hypoxia. The hypoxia in turn leads to hepatocyte damage with possible fibrosis and cirrhosis, the latter termed cardiac cirrhosis. 18.1 Congestive Heart Failure
