Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is a form of pulmonary hypertension caused by old blood clots in the lungs (pulmonary embolism). In most patients who have suffered a blood clot, blood thinners are enough to restore blood flow to the lungs, improving breathing and exercise tolerance, and preventing development of pulmonary hypertension.
However, a minority of patients will not respond adequately to blood thinners, and may develop CTEPH. In these patients, problems arise not only from lung segments being obstructed by clots, but because seemingly healthy blood vessels (supplying uninvolved lung segments) may develop progressive narrowing, similar to pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH).
Importantly, patients may develop CTEPH without any history of a blood clot. It is also possible for CTEPH to develop from multiple small clots over a long period of time, as opposed to one or two large blood clots. Learn more, watch Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension - What You Need to Know.
The symptoms of CTEPH are non-specific, and similar to other types of pulmonary hypertension. The most common symptoms of CTEPH are shortness of breath and exercise intolerance. Less frequent symptoms include a dry cough, chest pain, and heart palpitations. As the disease progresses, symptoms of light-headedness or exercise-related dizziness may occur. Abdominal and lower extremity swelling may develop as lung pressures increase, and the right ventricle, which pumps blood into the lungs, begins to weaken.
Approximately 1% of patients with an acute pulmonary embolism will develop CTEPH. People who have very large pulmonary emboli may be at increased risk of developing CTEPH. Patients who already manifest some pulmonary hypertension at the time of diagnosis of a pulmonary embolism may also have an increased likelihood of developing CTEPH. Some underlying blood clotting disorders are more common in patients with CTEPH, though not all clotting disorders increase risk. Additionally, some chronic medical conditions, such as inflammatory bowel disease and osteomyelitis, are associated with increased CTEPH risk.
If a doctor suspects that you have CTEPH, he or she will run a number of tests. The goals of these tests are to establish whether you have CTEPH or another type of PH. If you do have CTEPH, he or she will want to determine if you are a candidate for pulmonary thromboendartectomy (PTE) surgery.
The symptoms of CTEPH are quite similar to those of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and the other types of PH. Chest pain may be a more prominent feature of CTEPH, particularly in those patients who have had scarring in an area of lung from a prior blood clot. The distinguishing feature of CTEPH is that it is the only type of PH that truly has a potential "cure" for those who are eligible for PTE surgery.
The therapy of choice for operable patients is a pulmonary thromboendarterectomy, or PTE surgery, a highly specialized surgical procedure that removes chronic blood clots from the arteries in the lung. Learn more
All CTEPH patients will need to be on a blood thinner, typically warfarin, for the rest of their lives. For patients who have prominent abdominal swelling and swollen legs, diuretics may be beneficial.
PH-specific medications have been investigated in CTEPH, though the number of patients studied is much smaller than those enrolled in PAH clinical trials. These studies have confirmed the safety of several therapies, and varying degrees of benefit. Medical therapies are mainly used for inoperable patients, or for patients who have residual pulmonary hypertension after surgery. If you fall into one of these categories, your PH team will work with you to choose a medication based on your disease severity, side effects, and other relevant personal factors. Watch Thromboembolic Disease and PAH: The Spectrum of Therapies.

text: Fields Store Elementary School students from Todd Nesloney's fifth grade class became doctors for a day, in order to learn new math skills. Dr. Nesbit taught the surgeons their math lesson using creative methods. Students received hands-on training when they inspected some "blood", made from red-dyed water, with gummy worm parasites floating in the bloody substance. The surgeons had to perform tasks such as measuring the worms and converting the measurements, measuring liquids.

20091、We carried out this investigation to better know the ban on plastic bags, improve people's cousciousness about environmental protection and finally make efforts to our environmental protection. 2、Through this investigation,we improved our practical skills and strengthened our consciousness to save resources and protect environment. 3、It is the whole world's consensus to restrict the use of plastic bags to reduce white pollution and environmental pressure. Through this activity, the meaningful propaganda helps citizens to realize that we should protect our environment and improve our living environment by reducing the use of plastic bags, and finally make such activities a new, healthy way of living. We hope that everyone of our society should actively protect our environment. A Report on the Use of Plastic Bags in Our Daily Life Investigation Plan: 1. Our main method is field survey and questionnaire survey. Our supporting method is collecting materials through the internet. 2. At the beginning stage, we collect materials on plastic bags and Ban on Plastic Bags. In the medium-term, we collect data by field survey and questionnaire survey. 3. In the end, we summarize the materials and data, and write an investigation report. Investigation Process: The whole investigation was accomplished on April 11,2009. Team members got together at eight o'clock in the designated place. The team members who passed by country markets observed the use of plastic bags when buying vegetables. After get-together, team members summarized their observations and found that most seller still offered thin, colored and low-quality plastic bags. However, some buyers used plastic bags from super markets, baskets or cloth bag. Buyers who use baskets are mostly elders. After get-together, team members walked to Huaxing Super Market. We firstly negotiated with mangers about the negotiation process, and then interviewed with severa cashiers. We got to know that, before ban on plastic bags, one checkout generally sold 300 to 400 plastic bags per day. But after the ban, the number reduced sharply, to 120 to 200. After the interview, we separately observed around the checkout for 30 minutes and made a statistics of the use of plastic bags during the period. We also took pictures. Survey the situation: During lunch time, we handed out some questionnaires to some customers. After lunch, team members got together walked to waterfront park. We handed out the rest questionnaires to citizens and made data analysis. Result of Investigation: 1. As far as we knew, citizens clearly knew the harmful effects of plastic bags. The starting point of ban on plastic bags is fine, and most citizens can understand it. However, the execution is not satisfactory. In super markets, the use of plastic bags is reducing, but there are still some customers who don't care for the money and buy plastic bags. More and more customers don't use plastic bags when they buy small amount and low volume commodities. Situation is worser in country markets. People seldom do not use plastic bags. Sellers voluntarily offer plastic bags and buyers do not refuse to use them. Thus, Ban on plastic bags is harldy executed here. 2. As a matter of fact, charge on plastic bags can not radically deal with white pollution, but is an effective method to improve environmental protection consciousness.Our country should continue to strengthen the propaganda of ban on plastic bags and make the ban on plastic bags a habit. 3. It is an urgent responsibility to find a substitute, which both can facilitate people's daily life and is environmental protection, for plastic bags. About this site

2009ABSTRACT It all begins with once upon a time when the world is rich with natural resources-protected and untouched. As time flew by, these resources depleted into a critical stage. These natural resources are very beneficial and important to our life. Due to our greediness, we tend to exploit these resources and before we know it, they are decreasing right before our eyes. Therefore, we the Earth Rangers are on a mission to save the Earth. We are currently doing a research on what the government and non government are doing to help conserve and preserve the resources. From the research, we found out that they have taken many steps to reduce the usage of natural resources. For instance, they had organized campaigns to create awareness among society such as the Recycling Campaign. Legislation of strict law had also been passed. In order to instill consciousness among young generation, they are being educated on the importance of the natural resources in Science and Geography. What captures our interest the most is the usage of used tyres as heat absorbers in construction of buildings. However, even with all these measures Malaysian specifically our local community still take this serious condition lightly. Therefore, "The Earth Rangers" are on a mission to enlighten them on the importance of conserving and preserving the Earth resources. We are raising awareness by giving talks, doing surveys and interviews and planting trees with children. Our conclusion is the few steps of conserving and preserving as mentioned above will enable us to take better care of the world and its resources. It is our hope with this project the local community will be more cognizant on how to be responsible end users. About this site

This is a place where we wish to meet all the people who had the same passion like us, some kids from a country with a lot of natural wonders, many of them well known in the entire world.

2009Narrative Question: How do we take better care of our world and its resources? To address this issue, our team decides to come up with a study on the various problems the earth is currently facing, from climate change to pollution, and lack of sustainable resources for the future. We provide detailed 'cause, effect and measures' studies to give an all rounded view of the issues. However, we included another section that answers the question with a new and creative approach. Knowing that many countries these days are starting eco-friendly buildings, organizing green events and started green policies, we decide to answer the question by showing the current and future plans of the actions of these countries, doing comparisons and coming up with the best ways to solving a problem. We added a section to guide an individual who also wants to play his part in fighting climate change. Every small action counts in helping the world fight climate change. The more we have the fear that it is irreversible, the more we would not want to care about it, and therefore bringing out the worst possible circumstances. Raising awareness would encourage more people to put in effort in helping planet earth. An interactive section would be included too, comprising video interviews and quizzes to test one's knowledge on our topic. Resources required would be rather diverse. In order to have actual insights on what a country does, we have to live in the country itself. And that is what we successfully achieved, by having members working and etting information from Beijing, Tianjin, Indonesia and Singapore. Surveys, interviews and case studies could all be conducted at the various locations. Pictures were also easily obtained as we could directly use the pictures taken by ourselves. This project targets anyone who is willing to find out more about fighting climate change and how these actual steps are taken in the real world. People organizing events for their school / community could gain inspiration from our sources, and probably add a green twist to their event organization. Due to the relevance of climate change, adding a green twist to anything would certainly gain approval and probably more support from the general public. Finally, we aim to raise awareness of the climate change issue, and hopefully after going through our site, readers would actually understand the importance and severity of the situation and therefore want to play their part as well. Our site also encompasses other facets of environmental conservation such as reaching a fine balance between technological advancement and consideration for the environment. We will also be including in our website, an evaluation of the policies various countries have adopted, as well as the recent Beijing Olympics, and perhaps a discussion with regards to the upcoming London Olympics in the year 2012. Our primary objective would be to augment the overall awareness level of the global audience to perhaps accentuate the crucial need for environmental conservation.About this site

2001The Gulf of Aqaba-Eilat lies at the northern end of the Red Sea and along the borders of four countries: Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan, and Israel. The uniqueness of the gulf lies in the striking contrast of its clear water and the abundant and varied aquatic life it supports. The site includes textual information and pictures about the uniqueness of the gulf and about human activities taking place along the North Shore. The environmental impact of all the key sites found along the coast in Israel and in Jordan is presented. Most of the Information was taken from work made by senior students from the Earth Sience class in Ma'ale Shaharut School. A virtual map provides a link to each site. Incorporated in the site there is also a game – Simgulf – in which a visitor to the site is invited to learn independently about the land use and the environmental impact of a range of activities in the coastal region. Joint development of the site is contributing greatly to cementing relations between the partners from Jordan and Israel. In today's "burning" Middle-East cooperation is of major importance, especially in view of the fact that such cooperation will contribute to the preservation of plants and wildlife in the gulf. Recently published reports on the ecology of the Gulf of Aqaba-Eilat indicate the situation of the coral is worsening. This makes the site even more important. The Gulf News link provides access to these reports.About this site

2000A World of Diversity is an educational web site about the ecology and biodiversity the world has to offer. This web site focuses on giving a cumulative overview of Ecology, and the processes which drive ecosystems. The overview of ecology is reinforced by an in-depth look at four distinct ecosystems, the Willapa Bay estuary, the tide pools of the Pacific Coast, Mount St. Helens and the rainforests of Ecuador. By learning about these diverse and unique ecosystems users will be able to see how the science of ecology is acted out each day around them. After gaining an understanding of ecology users are encouraged to learn more about the ecosystems near their own hometown. This can be accomplished through independent research or by following one of our predesigned labs. The information which users collect can be submitted to A World of Diversity and will be added to the website. Additionally A World of Diversity can be used for students who wish to meet someone from across the world and discuss topics such as global warming or work on a similar ecological study to find the distinct differences in two separate ecosystems. Users are able to have discussions through the community chat, or messages left on our community forum. A World of Diversity offers many avenues to learn about the richness of life the world has to offer. About this site

1999Korean peninsula! There is a nature that only exists there. We only heard about it, but never knew the place. It's the DMZ(DeMilitarized Zone). When we heard about this place through the mass media we got a lot of interest and curiosity about this place. DMZ is the place where the nature is well preserved and has not been touched by human being. While land mines and dangerous objects coexists. DMZ is the area along the military demarcation line with 4km width, between the North and South Korea's armistice line. 2km wide on both North and South sides. After the Korean war for 50 years the DMZ had no contact with the people. So nature has been preserved better than any other place in the world. In this place, you can see many unknown animals and plants that lives only in korea. Rare living things that is world-widely protected live here also. About this site
1999While the Industrial Revolution transformed America into an economic powerhouse, it also marked the beginning of what would become the biggest contributor to air pollution and, consequently, the destruction of thousands of lakes and other natural habitats. On the eve of the new millennium, the importance of restoring our environment and fixing, or at least, lessening, these problems has become a national and international priority. Recently, such a priority has propelled environmental restoration and protection to the forefront of congressional agendas. Our comprehensive web site entitled, "Threatening Clouds: Air Pollution on the Eve of the New Millenium," attempts to address such pressing environmental issues, specifically CFCs, smog, acid rain, ozone depletion, and global warming, as well as the legislative action that has been enacted to help stop them. Furthermore, the site hopes to arm viewers with a basic understanding of these problems that will allow them to take preventative and remedial measures in their own communities. A text version, HTML version, and Flash version are available to accomodate all visitors, with special animations that further illustrate the topics featured in the Flash version.About this site

In-line with what I've come to expect from Lezyne, it's a stylish and well made bag that will not look out of place on a high value bike. I was looking forward to testing it on my Giant TCR, as with its aero post, fitting a standard saddle bag proved cumbersome and I also wanted something I could easily remove when racing. Unfortunately the Pod didn't fit either: the rail mounting interfered with the seat-post clamp.
Granted the TCR has quite a bulky rail clamp but it is something to consider when buying on of these. I have my saddle on the limit of set-back, offering the maximum amount of rail to the Pod and still couldn't get it on. You need to have a good amount of horizontal rail area for the clamp as you won't be able clip the Pod on if it's on the curve at all.
So, with it not fitting my road bike I mounted it on the mountain bike. I decided it would offer a better test for stability of the Pod anyway, getting rocked around off-road.
With only support from the top, you might be concerned that it would wobble or become loose. Thanks to a well designed and solid support this isn't the case however. Fully loaded with a tube, multi-tool and a few other bits, the Pod is still held fast and was not noticeable during riding. The bag clips into the mount with a confident 'clunk' and isn't come to come out until you want it to. The Pod is a EVA foam moulded construction with Nylon cover and is water resistant, certainly more resistant than most soft material bags but after forgetting to take it off during a bike cleaning I can say that it isn't going to keep things 100% dry.
Onto the main sell of any saddle bag, the Pod's design makes it one of the easiest to load and unload from. A zipper runs around three sides of the case, allowing it to open like a clam shell. You then have full access so you're not removing everything to get the change that has fallen to the bottom at the cafe stop. A netted partition stops things falling out when the lower opens. The zip also features a large finger loop to avoid any fumbling around with cold hands.
We had both the S and M sizes on test and the difference in size isn't massive but with the M i'd say you can get two road tubes in rather than one (or one MTB tube in my case), along with a tyre lever and multi-tool. It's a good size - not too big to look odd perched under the saddle - and for an extra £2 probably the size I'd go for. We also had both the black and the white colours and I'd say the black is subtle - as you want from a saddle bag - but is purely taste.
I really like the Lezyne Caddy Pod, I've used a few saddle bags in my time and reckon this is the most stylish, whilst remaining practical. That makes it more of shame that I couldn't fit it on my race bike, whether you'll have the saddle rail access is something to consider before buying. The S and M retail at £23.99 and £25.99 respectively and although there are cheaper options I don't feel it over priced for what is a tidier saddle bag option for most that isn't going to cause any paint rub.

A new signature: the Sidewinder Jacket now has an offset WaterTight™ Vislon front zipper that delivers a durable, smooth operation which improves the zipper action, and the offset position of the shaped contour eliminates zipper stack when layering.

Off the Beaten Track
The iconic offset zipper is a landmark Arc'teryx innovation. Originally done with the WaterTight™ zipper, a recent breakthrough allowed us to bend a Vislon zipper in the same manner and introduce it into the Sidewinder for smooth winter operation
