heart pumps more blood per heartbeat, resting heart rate slows, blood volume increases, body can cool itself better, resting blood pressure decrease, metabolism in skeletal muscle enhanced (improved fuel use), increased antioxidant chemicals in body and lowers oxidative stress. muscular strength helps:
This is what I found out by googling.Sigmoid means S shaped. Tortuous means it's more curvy than usual, but rarely has particular significance. A tortuous sigmoid simply means that there are a lot of twists and turns. By itself, this is an anatomical variant and not linked to a specific diseaseHope this helps a bit.
there is persistent mild thickening of the wall of the mid to distal descending colon, uncertain whether it is secondary to true colonic wall thickening versus secondary to incomplete distention. the pericolonic inflammatory changes noted on prior study has resolved. the sigmoid colon is well-distensible and redundant. the bladder is unremarkable. there are small inguinal lymph nodes. there is no free fluid.
