[Association between the hemodynamic and rheological parameters in the micro blood vessels in vivo]
Abstract:
Considering the experimental data obtained earlier, regarding the shift velocity in the micro blood vessels in vivo, and general theses of liquid mechanics and rheology of the non-Newtonian liquids, a generalized ratio between the hemodynamic and rheological parameters in the micro blood vessels in vivo are overviewed. These are: pressure difference--DeltaP, volume of blood flow--Q, linear velocity of blood flow, viscosity of Newtonian liquid--k, effective viscosity of the blood in a vessel in vivo eta(effect), and index of rheological behavior--n, which was determined earlier in our laboratory. These parameters are observed in the live blood vessels of microcirculatory bed, in all regimes of the blood flow characteristic for the in-vivo vessels.

Chemical Signaling in Autoregulation
Chemical signaling operates at the precapillary sphincter level, inciting either contraction or relaxation.
Vascular Resistance
The primary determinants of vascular resistance are vessel diameter, blood viscosity, and vessel length. Among these, vessel diameter plays the most significant role due to the fourth power relationship described by...
