Sinoatrial nodal artery posterior aspect of the interatrial septum. The origin of the sinoatrial node artery is not related to coronary artery dominance, which means the side (right or left) that provides the circulation to the back of the heart. In contrast, the atrioventricular nodal branch, that is the artery that brings blood to the atrioventricular node, depends on coronary artery dominance. The sinoatrial node surrounds the sinoatrial artery, which can run centrally (in 70% of individuals) or off center within the node. A left S-shaped sinoatrial artery, originating from the proximal left circumflex or LCx artery, has been described as a common
Orbital node terms αναβιβάζων and καταβιβάζων were also used for the ascending and descending nodes, giving rise to the English words "anabibazon" and "catabibazon". For the orbit of the Moon around Earth, the plane is taken to be the ecliptic, not the equatorial plane. The gravitational pull of the Sun upon the Moon causes its nodes to gradually precess westward, completing a cycle in approximately 18.6 years. Orbital node An orbital node is either of the two points where an orbit intersects a plane of reference to which it is inclined. A non-inclined orbit, which is contained in the reference plane, has
