Book Description
"Fractured Realms" is a powerful tale of courage, magic, and the unbreakable bonds of love. The realms are in disarray, with magic fractured and the boundaries between worlds disintegrating. Alex and Liam must navigate a world where alliances are fragile, and old enemies rise once again. As their love faces its greatest test yet, they uncover secrets about the origins of magic itself and the prophecy that ties them to the fate of the realms. In the midst of shifting alliances and growing danger, Alex and Liam must rely on the strength of their bond and the mysterious relics hidden throughout the lands. As they journey through enchanted forests, ancient mountains, and treacherous fae territories, they will confront dark forces that threaten to plunge everything into chaos once more. "Fractured Realms" is a thrilling, heart-wrenching fantasy adventure filled with magic, resilience, and the hope of a future where the realms can once again be united. With each page, readers will find themselves captivated by the danger, the wonder, and the fierce love that drives Alex and Liam forward. Will they be able to heal the fractures and bring lasting peace to the realms, or will the darkness finally consume everything they hold dear?
The Heart and Circulation
Author: Branko Furst
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030250628
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 394
Book Description
This extensively revised second edition traces the development of the basic concepts in cardiovascular physiology in light of the accumulated experimental and clinical evidence. It considers the early embryonic circulation, where blood circulation suggests the existence of a motive force, tightly coupled to the metabolic demands of the tissues. It proposes that rather than being an organ of propulsion, the heart, serves as an organ of control, generating pressure by rhythmically impeding blood flow. New and expanded chapters cover the arterial pulse, circulation in the upright posture, microcirculation and functional heart morphology. Heart and Circulation offers a new perspective for deeper understanding of the human cardiovascular system. It is therefore a thought-provoking resource for cardiologists, cardiac surgeons and trainees interested in models of human circulation.

Heart's Vortex
Author: Ares Pasipoularides
Publisher: PMPH-USA
ISBN: 9781607950332
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 958
Book Description
This outstanding resource provides a comprehensive guide to intracardiac blood flow phenomena and cardiac hemodynamics, including the developmental history, theoretical frameworks, computational fluid dynamics, and practical applications for clinical cardiology, cardiac imaging and embryology. It is not a mere compilation of the most up-to-date scientific data and relevant concepts. Rather, it is an integrated educational means to developing pluridisciplinary background, knowledge, and understanding. Such understanding allows an appreciation of the crucial, albeit heretofore generally unappreciated, importance of intracardiac blood flow phenomena in a host of multifaceted functional and morphogenetic cardiac adaptations. The book includes over 400 figures, which were prepared by the author and form a vital part of the pedagogy. It is organized in three parts. Part I, Fundamentals of Intracardiac Flows and Their Measurement, provides comprehensive background from many disciplines that are necessary for a deep and broad understanding and appreciation of intracardiac blood flow phenomena. Such indispensable background spans several chapters and covers necessary mathematics, a brief history of the evolution of ideas and methodological approaches that are relevant to cardiac fluid dynamics and imaging, a qualitative introduction to fluid dynamic stability theory, chapters on physics and fluid dynamics of unsteady blood flows and an intuitive introduction to various kinds of relevant vortical fluid motions. Part II, Visualization of Intracardiac Blood Flows: Methodologies, Frameworks and Insights, is devoted to pluridisciplinary approaches to the visualization of intracardiac blood flows. It encompasses chapters on 3-D real-time and "live 3-D" echocardiography and Doppler echocardiography, CT tomographic scanning modalities, including multidetector spiral/helical dataset acquisitions, MRI and cardiac MRA, including phase contrast velocity mapping (PCVM), etc. An entire chapter is devoted to the understanding of post processing exploration techniques and the display of tomographic data, including "slice-and-dice" 3-D techniques and cine-MRI. Part II also encompasses an intuitive introduction to CFD as it pertains to intracardiac blood flow simulations, followed--in separate chapters--by conceptually rich treatments of the computational fluid dynamics of ejection and of diastolic filling. An entire chapter is devoted to fluid dynamic epigenetic factors in cardiogenesis and pre- and postnatal cardiac remodeling, and another to clinical and basic science perspectives, and their implications for emerging research frontiers. Part III contains an Appendix presenting technical aspects of the method of predetermined boundary motion, "PBM," developed at Duke University by the author and his collaborators.
