Numerical Modeling of Microvascular Hemodynamics in Plasmodium Falciparum Malaria

摘要: High concentrations of nitric oxide (NO) have previously been measured in human maxillary sinuses, but the transport rates between sinus and nose during normal breathing not quantified. In this study, NO has investigated using published production rates, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) first-order modeling stylised physiological, pathological post-surgical geometries. The results indicate that physiological geometries cannot supply all found nasal cavity. Pathological higher lower steady-state than geometries, no difference was two surgical techniques considered (inferior middle meatal antrostomy). All steady state are also above level required for bacteriostatic effects.
