Platelet deposition in rabbit common carotid arteries promoted by arterial stenosis and spasm
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Coronary arteriograhy in patients with ischemic heart disease often shows spasm of the coronary arteries. The question is whether spasm is a triggering factor for thrombosis in a stenotic artery. If so, what are the mechanisms for this? A stenosing teflon ring was applied to the right common carotid artery of anesthetized rabbits and 1-nor-epinephrine was dripped over the outer surface of both carotid arteries, causing spasm. In control animals an indifferent solution did not cause spasm. Nineteen rabbits were killed 30 min or 24 h after treatment. Microscopically, arteries with stenosis and spasm contained thrombi nearby the stenosis significantly more often than arteries in control animals. In another 14 rabbits, killed at 30 min, the number of platelets on the intimal surface away from the stenosis was quantified. In arteries with both stenosis and spasm the counts were significantly greater than in arteries with no treatment. The intimal surface in stenotic and spastic arteries showed assumed imprints of eddying flow and endothelial injury downstream and upstream of the stenosis. Spastic arteries showed increased folding of the internal elastic membrane, altered endothelial cells, and adhering platelets. Spasm in a rabbit artery with a preformed stenosis facilitates thrombosis probably by creating increased flow disturbances. Spasm may induce endothelial injury, causing adherence of platelets.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
