White Matter Lesions and Cognitive Impairment as Silent Cerebral Disease in Hypertension by Cristina Sierra, Antonio Coca

“…Correlations between cerebral white matter lesions and elevated blood pressure provide indirect evidence that structural and functional changes in the brain over time may lead to lowered cognitive functioning when blood pressure control is poor or lacking.Some authors have suggested that the presence of white matter lesions in hypertensive patients could be considered an early marker of brain damage.…”

The case for weak null in English by Andrew Tollet

“…Yet, while this may applicable in the case of predicates nouns denoting unique roles, certain institutions where the referent is pragmatically unique, or coordinate structures with a preceding referent, there is persuasive evidence to suggest a considerable number of other null structures do not fit such a description but, on the contrary, share common characteristics with the weak form of the definite article or occupy more of a neutral position which would permit insertion of either one of the surface articles. …”

Trois monnaies en contexte « aqueduc » à Lyon à l’épreuve de la numismatique et de l’archéologie by Christian Cécillon, Catherine Coquidé

“…Three coins found in the vicinity of Lyon’s aqueducts have haunted the literature for more than two centuries, mentioned in one text after another as chronological evidence relating to construction or repair work on one or other of the canals, together with more or less complete quotations or embedded information without any source.It therefore seems appropriate to go back to the original documents and to expose them to contemporary numismatic evaluation in order to reassess the relevance of these data. …”

Bihemispheric Posterior Inferior Cerebellar Artery Occurring with an Azygos Anterior Cerebral Artery: Case Study by Jamie Toms, Rishi Wadhwa, Sudheer Ambekar, Hugo Cuellar

“…Digital subtraction angiography revealed a bihemispheric posterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA) and an azygous anterior cerebral artery (ACA). There was no evidence of any aneurysm or vascular abnormality. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of a patient with a common PICA supplying both the cerebellar hemispheres and a common ACA supplying ACA territory bilaterally. …”

The Involvement of Glycosaminoglycans in Airway Disease Associated with Cystic Fibrosis by Emer P. Reeves, David A. Bergin, Michelle A. Murray, Noel G. McElvaney

“…It has been assumed that these structural airway changes have occurred secondary to infection and inflammation, but recent studies suggest that glycosaminoglycan (GAG) remodelling may be an important independent parallel process. Evidence is accumulating that not only the concentration, but also sulphation of GAGs is markedly increased in CF bronchial cells and tissues. …”

Sympathetic Renal Innervation and Resistant Hypertension by Vito M. Campese, Elaine Ku, Jeanie Park

“…Although the role of sodium retention, total body volume expansion, and hyperactivity of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) are well recognized, increasing evidence suggests that afferent impulses from the injured kidney may increase sympathetic nervous system activity in areas of the brain involved in noradrenergic regulation of blood pressure and contribute to the development and maintenance of hypertension associated with kidney disease. …”
