    essential for glucose and lipid metabolism and energy homeostasis. Metabolic processes in the liver include lipogenesis, fatty acid oxidation, gluconeogenesis, cholesterol biosynthesis and elimination, and lipoprotein transport (Ponziani et al., 2015). The pancreas and skeletal muscle are key regulatory sites for insulin and glucose regulation and utilization (Mizgier et al., 2014). Adipose…

    An understanding of the core cardiovascular physiological principles is fundamental to delivering clinical care to patients. In order to successfully deliver oxygen and other nutrients to end organs whist eliminating waste products, cardiac output is manipulated through the control of heart rate, blood pressure, stroke volume, preload, afterload and contractility. Though controlled through…

    Venous return is the flow of blood from the systemic venous network towards the right heart. At steady state, venous return equals cardiac output, as the venous and arterial systems operate in series. However, unlike the arterial one, the venous network is a capacitive system with a high compliance. It includes a part of unstressed blood, which is a reservoir that can be recruited via sympathetic…
