This presentation describes various aspects of the regulation of tissue oxygenation, including the roles of the circulatory system, respiratory system, and blood, the carrier of oxygen within these components of the cardiorespiratory system. The respiratory system takes oxygen from the atmosphere and transports it by diffusion from the air in the alveoli to the blood flowing through the pulmonary capillaries. The cardiovascular system then moves the oxygenated blood from the heart to the microcirculation of the various organs by convection, where oxygen is released from hemoglobin in the red blood cells and moves to the parenchymal cells of each tissue by diffusion. Oxygen that has diffused ...
The presently accepted model of the circulation is based on the work of Dr. William Harvey in the 17th century. But what Dr. Harvey described was what we now call the Macrocirculation, this is, the heart, lungs, arteries, and veins. The technology at the time did not permit a study of the capillaries, the interstitial fluid, and the lymphatic system. How did oxygen and other molecules traveled from the capillary lumen to the parenchymal cells was not known. A lot of scientific knowledge has been acquired since Dr. Harvey's description. Dr. Marcello Malpighi, and Italian physician and biologist, visualized and discovered the capillaries also in the 17th Century. Claude Bernard, a French physi...

The International Society on Oxygen Transport to Tissue (lSOTT) held its 26th annual meeting from August 23-26, 1998, and met for the second time in Budapest. As captured in the design of the ISOTT'98 logo, the venue of the conference was the Budapest Hilton in the heart of the historic Castle District in Buda, across from Hungary's coronation church-the Matthias Church-and the fairy-tale-like Fisherman's Bastion; a special place with a historical touch situated atop the Castle Hill, from where participants enjoyed the spectacular panoramic views of Budapest exquisitely laid out on both sides of the Danube. In preparation for ISOTT'98, major emphasis was given to the application of informati...
''In addition to a wide variety of traditional oxygen transport topics, particular areas have been selected for emphasis at the 1997 meeting, which are: Molecular and genetic techniques to study oxygen transport in health and disease Angiogenesis during hypoxia, ischemia, and development Physiological mechanisms of oxygen sensing Physiological fluctuations of cerebral blood flow, metabolism and oxygenation Near infrared and phsophorescence techniques for the assessment of blood and tissue oxygenation Advances in biotechnology of anticoagulants and blood substitutes.

Traditionally, applications of biomechanics will model system-level aspects of the human body. As a result, the majority of technological progress to date appears in system-level device development. More recently, biomechanical initiatives are investigating biological sub-systems such as tissues, cells, and molecules. Fueled by advances in experime
In 1996, for its 24th scientific meeting, the International Society on Oxygen Trans port to Tissue made its third visit to the United Kingdom. The previous two meetings were held in Cambridge in 1977 and 1986, but this was the first meeting to be held "north of the border" in Scotland. It was attended by some 186 delegates and accompanying persons and there were 128 presentations. The venue was the West Park Centre, the University of Dundee's residential conference centre, and ISOTT was only the second major meeting to be held there using the new Villa accommodation. Dundee's slogan is "City of Discovery" since it became the permanent home of the Royal Research Ship Discovery which was built...
Immortality, healing properties that are beyond the understanding of science, source of immeasurable energy… These are some of the many uses of cow ghee that are mentioned in the Vedas. A cow is said to be the source of energy of the cosmic forces and is rightfully called Vishwamatha…and the ghee we get from a cow is valuable beyond measure. The healing properties and the health benefits it provides are unmatched by any form of medicine that is available anywhere in the world. Vishwamatha helps to maintain balance of nature in the world. Topics like Znana Sankalinee, Nishkrithi, Immortality and Agnikriyas resulting subtle energies are discussed in this book. Read on to understand further the importance of Vishwamatha and the role she plays in this universe as a Divine Vaidya and a Living Vaidya Sala. It is for the welfare of all. The subject Viswamatha is brought under the following books 1. Viswamatha Geetha 2. Metaphilosophy of Creation Cosmos and beyond Cosmos 3. Viswamatha Imperceptible 4. Viswamatha Nishkrithi 5. Viswamatha Ishkrithi
The International Society of Oxygen Transport to Tissue (ISOTT) was founded in 1973 to provide a forum for bioengineers, basic scientists, physiologists, and physicians to discuss new data, original theories, new interpretations of old data, and new technologies for the measurement of oxygen. At each annual meeting all posters are presented orally along with plenary lectures, and all presentations are given in a general session attended by everyone. Each meeting has had a specific focus, ranging from neonatology to physical chemistry to cancer biology. The Society has helped to build many careers, through opportunities to meet leaders in the field, and through awards made to young physicians...
Can We Serve Visvamatha aims to communicate to the world about the ancient wisdom of Bharatadesha. The vedas are the source of knowledge. Ayurveda is from the vedas. Gomathi vidya – ‘the science of cow’ – is from Ayurveda. The aim of all these is attaining happiness. How does one achieve this with the help of Viswamatha? Agnimele is for the welfare of all. The word ‘Viswamatha’ is described through two ways: one is through discrimination and the other is through agnimele. All ancient technologies and sciences are derived from the scriptures which were brought out by maharishis from Veda Mantras. ‘The science of cow’ is from these sources. Many aspects are concealed in the abo...
