jugular venous reflux

Post by petebou »

I thought TIMSers would be interested by this review paper published last year by a Taiwanese group on jugular venous reflux (JVR) in J Med Ultrasound. They reference Charcot. They give a very good picture of the cerebral venous sytem and its components. They report "JVR indicates an increased proximal venous pressure, which might impede cerebral venous outflow and induce neurologic dysfunction". Unfortunately they don't mention Pr Zamboni.

I need a good deal on printer ink lol. Thanks a bunch for the link! Maybe we can skip the mouse pinching for another day and get right to opening up human veins... Just a thought.

Thanks again very much we need eyes and ears all over the place...
