	Vascular plant - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The vascular plants are plants in the Kingdom Plantae (also called Viridiplantae) that have specialized tissues for conducting water.
		Vascular plants have vascular tissues, enabling the plants to evolve to a larger size.
		In vascular plants, the principal generation phase is the sporophyte, which is diploid with two sets of chromosomes per cell.

		It is composed of several axial vascular bundles that are arranged within the stem in the shape of a tube with enclosed pith.
		Variations of the vascular cylinder are based upon direction and height of the helix, upon the number of traces per leaf and the nature of leaf insertion.
		Vascular systems with five traces are most likely primitive, those with more or less traces are derived.

	CIRCULATORY SYSTEMS
		The vertebrate cardiovascular system includes a heart, which is a muscular pump that contracts to propel blood out to the body through arteries, and a series of blood vessels.
		Systemic pressure is sensed by receptors in the arteries and atria.
		Two main routes for circulation are the pulmonary (to and from the lungs) and the systemic (to and from the body).

	Pharyngula: Evolution of vascular systems
		It's interesting that acoelomate flatworms lack a discrete circulatory system, but they do have excretory epithelia—it implies that maybe the heart and blood vessels were cobbled together out of genetic pathways that were first pioneered in the building of the organism's sewage treatment system.
		Vascular progenitors (cardioblasts) migrate dorsally, meet in the midline and form the myoepithelial dorsal vessel (top).
		Progenitors of the vascular system and blood derive from the lateral plate.

		The systems may also be used to produce anastomoses between bypass grafts and host vessels to treat other occlusions, vascular abnormalities such as stenoses, thromboses, aneurysms, fistulas and other indications requiring a bypass graft.
		The system of the present invention is also useful in bypassing stented vessels that have restenosed, and saphenous vein bypass grafts that have thrombosed or stenosed.
		The close proximity between a retractor or stabilizer-mounted loading system allows the system to be used with pedicled arteries (e.g., the LIMA and RIMA) or proximally connected vein grafts which reside within the chest.

	Seedless Vascular Plants (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The evolution of vascular plants is tied to Bryophyta (mosses, liverworts and hornworts for you un-science types) but it is still not known whether seedless vasculars evolved independently or from shared structures within Bryophyta.
		The structure of the vascular plant can be broken down into three parts: subterranean root systems, where water and minerals are absorbed; aerial root systems, where photosynthesis occurs; and vascular tissue, where tubular cell chains deliver materials between different organs of the plant.
		Vascular plants also have cuticles, which are waxy coverings on the surface of stems and leaves that prevent dehydration in terrestrial plants.

	Water vascular system - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The water vascular system is a hydraulic system used by echinoderms, such as sea stars and sea urchins, for locomotion, food and waste transportation, and respiration.
		The system is composed of canals connecting numerous tube feet.
		Echinoderms move by alternately contracting muscles that force water into the tube feet, causing them to extend and push against the ground, then relaxing to allow the feet to retract.

	Vascular Disease Screening
		But they know very little about vascular disease outside the heart, says William R. Flinn, M.D., head of vascular surgery and the Maryland Vascular Center at the University of Maryland Medical Center and professor of surgery at the University of Maryland School of Medicine.
		That's despite the fact that many vascular diseases can produce stroke, which is the third leading cause of death in the United States.
		Dr. Flinn says it's important to understand that vascular disease outside the heart does occur in a variety of different locations -- the carotid arteries in the neck, the aorta, the arteries in the legs and arms and even disease in the veins.

		Recent studies of the biochemistry and cell biology of the vessel wall, however, have dramatically extended the role of the vasculature, which is now believed to directly regulate the development and function of certain organs.
		Thus, the identification and characterization of the genes that govern vascular functions within various organs may be beneficial for the treatment of disease processes.
		Although vascular cells are an integral part of all tissues, they may differ molecularly and functionally between different tissues.

	Treating Vascular Disease
		Vascular disease, which includes medical conditions associated with the circulatory system outside the heart, continues to be a major health problem in the United States. Vascular conditions include everything from vericose veins to bulging or blocked arteries.
		Unhealthy vascular systems cause stroke, hypertension (high blood pressure), arteriosclerosis (hardening of the arteries) and kidney disease.
		Swedish’s vascular specialists also support the work of primary-care physicians in helping patients adopt changes in their lifestyle through exercise, smoking cessation and other programs that can improve outcomes and mitigate damage from vascular conditions.
