*** Normal anatomical shunt occur due to Thebesian veins which empty into the left ventricle and the bronchial circulation which supplies the bronchi with oxygen.

Erythropoietin is released in response to hypoxia ( low levels of oxygen at tissue level ) in the renal circulation.

Molecular surgical tools, guided by molecular computers and injected into the blood stream could find and destroy cancer cells or invading bacteria, unclog arteries, or provide oxygen when the circulation is impaired.

Stainless steel does not readily corrode, rust or stain with water as ordinary steel does, but despite the name it is not fully stain-proof, most notably under low oxygen, high salinity, or poor circulation environments.

In mammals, the function of the right side of the heart ( see right heart ) is to collect de-oxygenated blood, in the right atrium, from the body ( via superior and inferior vena cavae ) and pump it, through the tricuspid valve, via the right ventricle, into the lungs ( pulmonary circulation ) so that carbon dioxide can be dropped off and oxygen picked up ( gas exchange ).

In a 2007 interview, Choudhury stated that when one is practicing pranayama, he or she will eventually be able to enhance oxygen absorption, as well as improve blood circulation, as in many other forms of cardiovascular activity.

This is true of the systemic circulation, by far the larger of the two circuits of blood in the body, which transports oxygen from the heart to the tissues of the body.

In addition, deoxygenated blood that is carried from the tissues back to the heart for reoxygenation in systemic circulation still carries some oxygen, though it is considerably less than that carried by the systemic arteries or pulmonary veins.

Arrested blood circulation prevents delivery of oxygen to the body.

Metal fire rings generally do a good job of keeping out wind, but some of them are so high as to impede the circulation of oxygen in a small fire.

In the meantime, the male is very protective of the nest and ceaselessly fans the eggs to provide proper oxygen circulation, and checks them for any bad eggs, which he eats before they can rot and damage more eggs.

* Stress has been shown to restrict the blood supply to capillaries, inhibiting oxygen and nutrient uptake to hair follicles and inhibiting hair growth, in a similar effect to having poor circulation.

Prolonged apnea leads to severe lack of oxygen in the blood circulation.

Because the exchange of gases between the blood and airspace of the lungs is independent of the movement of gas to and from the lungs, enough oxygen can be delivered to the circulation even if a person is apneic.

Cardiopulmonary bypass ( CPB ) is a technique that temporarily takes over the function of the heart and lungs during surgery, maintaining the circulation of blood and the oxygen content of the body.

The estimated shunt fraction refers to the amount of oxygen not being absorbed into the circulation.

In warmer, poorly oxygenated water, the gills expand to increase water circulation and provide greater surface area for oxygen intake.

The circulation of chemical nutrients like carbon, oxygen, nitrogen, phosphorus, calcium, and water etc.

In Return to Life, Pilates devotes a section of his introduction specifically to breathing " Bodily house-cleaning with blood circulation " He saw considerable value in increasing the intake of oxygen and the circulation of this oxygenated blood to every part of the body.

The function of the right side of the heart ( see right heart ) is to collect de-oxygenated blood, in the right atrium, from the body ( via superior and inferior vena cavae ) and pump it, via the right ventricle, into the lungs ( pulmonary circulation ) so that carbon dioxide can be dropped off and oxygen picked up ( gas exchange ).

The heart itself is supplied with oxygen and nutrients through a small " loop " of the systemic circulation.

Because the systemic circulation is powered by the left ventricle ( which is very muscular ), one advantage of this form of circulation-as opposed to open circulation, or the gill system that fish use to breathe-is that there is simultaneous high-pressure oxygenated blood delivered to all parts of the body ( except for the inner epithelial lining of the lungs which receive their oxygen during the exchange of the gases themselves-Dr. Matayoshi )

Among its adaptations for cold survival are its deep, thick fur, a system of countercurrent heat exchange in the circulation of paws to retain core temperature, and a good supply of body fat.

This coincides with an increasingly more vigorous circulation of the ocean ’ s surface and deep waters brought about by increasing latitudinal thermal gradients at the onset of major ice sheet expansion on Antarctica and progressive cooling through the Neogene and Quaternary towards a bipolar glaciated world.

On longer time scales, alterations to ocean processes such as thermohaline circulation play a key role in redistributing heat by carrying out a very slow and extremely deep movement of water, and the long-term redistribution of heat in the world's oceans.

From January 2009 to December 2012, the town centre circulation will go through deep changes called " Projet Coeur d ' Agglo ".

* Having shallow channels and deep basins, the Sea of Japan could form a mediterranean sea, but the strong currents from the Pacific prevent it from having an independent water circulation.

If the sill depth is deep, water circulation is less restricted and a slow, but steady exchange of water from the estuary and the ocean occur.

Working in all the world ’ s oceans, their broad research agenda includes: geological activity deep within the earth ; plant, animal, and microbial populations and their interactions in the ocean ; coastal erosion ; ocean circulation ; ocean pollution ; and global climate change.

A venous emboli ( most likely from deep venous thrombosis in the lower extremities ) will travel through the systemic circulation, reach the right side of the heart, and travel through the pulmonary artery resulting in a pulmonary embolism.

Vehicles may be packed up to five vehicles deep in combinations of perpendicular and / or parallel parking with limited circulation aisles for the parking attendant.

The Weddell Sea is an important area of deep water mass formation through cabbeling, the main driving force of the thermohaline circulation.

Hydrothermal also refers to the transport and circulation of water within the deep crust, generally from areas of hot rocks to areas of cooler rocks.

Hydrothermal circulation, particularly in the deep crust, is a primary cause of mineral deposit formation and a cornerstone of most theories on ore genesis.

Shortly after being downgraded to a tropical depression, surface observations showed an elongated circulation with a poorly defined center, which had reformed closer to the deep convection.

Thermohaline circulation, also known as the ocean's conveyor belt, refers to the deep ocean density-driven ocean basin currents.

The thermohaline circulation is mainly triggered by the formation of deep water masses in the North Atlantic and the Southern Ocean and Haline forcing caused by differences in temperature and salinity of the water.

Computer models of ocean circulation increasingly place most of the deep upwelling in the Southern Ocean, associated with the strong winds in the open latitudes between South America and Antarctica.

Insofar as the thermohaline circulation governs the rate at which deep waters are exposed to the surface, it may also play an important role in determining the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

They migrate between the deep and the peripheral circulation.

During the day, they are present in the deep veins, and during the night, they migrate to the peripheral circulation.

When under high pressure induced by deep diving, capillaries in the extremities start closing off, stopping blood circulation to those areas.

Although deep convection was minimal on satellite imagery, the system possessed a well-defined low-to mid-level circulation.

However, The Daily Worker was in deep trouble with significant losses in circulation due to a general disenchantment with communism, by both workers and intellectuals, and pressure from McCarthyism.

Drummond took a deep interest in religious subjects, and published numerous books and pamphlets on such questions as the interpretation of prophecy, the circulation of the Apocrypha and the principles of Christianity.

On September 26, an eye feature developed, and very deep convection increased around the circulation.
