Effect of blood viscosity on the atherosclerotic plaque by Zgheib, Yara

“…Simulations show that the Newtonian model where the viscosity is constant overestimates the recirculation of the blood, underestimates the displacement of the plaque and the stress over it in comparison with the non-Newtonian one. In addition, it shows also that the increase in the viscosity of the blood in a COVID 19 patient overestimates the distribution of the stress over the plaque that will lead to its rupture.…”

Malva sylvestris water extract by Daher, CF

“…The present study investigates the role of the aqueous extract of its aerial part upon lipemia, glycemia, inflammation and gastric ulcer using rats as a model. After one month of extract intake via drinking water (100, 400 and 800mg/kg body weight) the 400 and 800mg/kg body weight doses resulted in significant increase in serum triglyceride, while other lipid and glycemic parameters and liver enzyme activities (AST, ALT, LDH, ALP) were unaffected. …”
