Does nitric oxide delivery via a permeable balloon catheter inhibit neointimal growth after arterial injury?
These data demonstrate that short-duration endoluminal NO delivery via permeable balloon catheters inhibits neointimal hyperplasia following arterial interventions. Endoluminal delivery of NO could become a focus for future clinical interventions.
Based on the changing availability of chickens in domiciles during spring-summer and the much larger infectivity of dogs compared with humans, we infer that the net effects of chickens in the presence of transmission-competent hosts may be more adequately described by zoopotentiation than by zooprophylaxis. Domestic animals in domiciles profoundly affect the host-feeding choices, human-vector contact rates and parasite transmission predicted by a model based on these estimates.
