Hantavirus, a genus of rodent- and insectivore-borne viruses in the family Bunyaviridae, is a group of emerging zoonotic pathogens. Hantaviruses cause hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome and hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome in man, often with severe consequences. Vascular leakage is evident in severe hantavirus infections, and increased permeability contributes to the pathogenesis. This review summarizes the current knowledge on hantavirus interactions with hematopoietic and endothelial cells, and their effects on the increased vascular permeability.

Fundamental Theorem of Calculus I01:23

Fundamental Theorem of Calculus I

Solving problems involving definite integrals requires a systematic approach that ensures clarity and efficiency. The first step is understanding the problem by identifying the calculated quantity, whether it involves accumulation, area, or a physical concept like force or probability. It is essential to recognize given conditions, such as the range of integration and any constraints that may affect the solution. Before computing, key properties of definite integrals should be analyzed to...

Fundamental Theorem of Algebra

The Fundamental Theorem of Algebra is central to the study of polynomial equations, asserting that every non-constant polynomial with complex coefficients has at least one complex zero. This means that a polynomial of degree n ≥ 1, written as:  with an ≠ 0, has at least one solution in the complex number system. Since the set of real numbers is a subset of complex numbers, this theorem applies equally to polynomials with real coefficients.Building on this result, the...

Fundamental Attribution Error

According to some social psychologists, people tend to overemphasize internal factors as explanations—or attributions—for the behavior of other people. They tend to assume that the behavior of another person is a trait of that person, and to underestimate the power of the situation on the behavior of others. They tend to fail to recognize when the behavior of another is due to situational variables, and thus to the person’s state. This erroneous assumption is...

Electrocardiogram Fundamentals

Introduction
An electrocardiogram (ECG) is a diagnostic tool for identifying cardiac conditions such as arrhythmias, conduction abnormalities, and myocardial ischemia.
Definition
An electrocardiogram (ECG) visualizes the heart's electrical activity by tracing the electrical movement associated with each heartbeat on a graph or monitor. As the heart beats, an electrical wave passes through it, correlating with the cardiac cycle events.
Parts of an ECG
An ECG utilizes electrodes on the skin...

Pulmonary Hypertension: Classification and Pathogenesis

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a severe health condition in which the mean pulmonary arterial pressure increases to 25 mmHg or more, even when the body is at rest. This high pressure in the blood vessels that transport blood from the heart to the lungs can cause various symptoms, including shortness of breath, can lead to right heart failure, and significantly affect the overall quality of life.
There are various classifications for PH, each relating to different underlying causes and also...
