Abstract
The present paper provides a general morphofunctional study of the oro-maxillary-facial cephalic arterial area that shows some particular hemodynamic characteristics. The internal maxillary artery supplies a very large territory, with numerous and wide anastomoses. In order to understand the hemodynamic characteristics of this artery, we analyzed some older theories, such as: Ludwig von Bertalanffy's General Systems Theory, Walter Zimmermann's Telome Theory, and some general rheological principles also.

Abstract
The publication imparts information about the personal life and professional sphere of activity of J.A. Segner, Karl Küppers, Maximilian Neu, Hans Bunte, and Felix Meyer, as far as they were involved with the invention of devices for measuring gas flow, especially their involvement in testing the introduction of Rotameters into the medical field. The knowledge that the threat of deportation in October 1940, due to his Jewish background and in view of the politics of the National Socialists at the time, led to Maximilian Neu's committing suicide, is of added historical interest. Together with biographical details, the role played by the Institute of Research in Karlsruhe and the establishment of the Rotameter site in Aachen is presented. The historical outline finishes with a short report of the author's first experience with Rotameters at the Nuffeld Department of Anaesthetics, Oxford University during the Second World War and with his subsequent efforts to introduce Rotameters into anesthesia equipment design in the United States.

Abstract
The uroflowmeter is perhaps the most important and certainly the most commonly used urodynamic instrument currently employed in urologic practice. The modern uroflowmeter was invented by Willard M. Drake, Jr., in 1946 at the Jefferson Medical College. The original manuscript, entitled "The uroflometer: an aid to the study of the lower urinary tract," appeared in Journal of Urology in 1948. Drake obtained a US patent for the device, entitled "Uroflometer," in 1953. The flowmeter, originally manufactured by van Beek Industries, was more recently manufactured and distributed by Grewe Plastics. Drake is now retired and living in Nacogdoches, Texas.

Abstract
The application of principles of biorheology, hemorheology and perihemorheology on problems of the nervous system in health and disease was suggested by Alfred L. Copley (1982, 1987). Late in 1988 Copley and Sourander considered neurobiorheology to be an appropriate term for a new branch of biorheology bridging the gap between biorheology and neurobiology. Neurobiorheology can be defined as a research field concerned with deformation behaviour of matter including flow and transportation in context with the structure and function of the nervous system at macroscopic, cellular, subcellular and molecular levels. It may be considered a basic life science with important clinical applications. Its "raison d'être" should be to apply various ways of thinking, calculations and techniques used in biorheology to treat and if possible to solve neurobiological problems. Many regionally different chemical, structural and functional properties characterize the developing and adult nervous system and those parts of the circulatory system ("vessel-blood organ") which penetrate the nervous system at all levels. Considering the close metabolic and functional relations between neurons and surrounding non-neuronal ectodermal cells, neuroglial and Schwann cells deriving from common precursor cells in the wall of the neural tube and neural crest respectively, the term neuroectodermal organ appears suitable. The almost parallel ontogenetic evolution of vessel-blood organ and neuroectodermal organ and their interaction during the entire individual life cycle constitutes a challenging stimulus for integrated research. The main purpose of this review is to give some examples of importance concerning still insufficiently elucidated neurobiological problems suitable for biorheological approaches. Particular attention will be paid to the microenvironment at central and peripheral levels of the neuroectodermal organ.

Abstract
Physiological and pathophysiological aspects of systemic and cardiac haemodynamics are reviewed with appraisal of Carl J. Wiggers merits and contributions to the research and developments in this field and his early recognition of the significance of the flow properties of blood in impaired circulation. Pharmacological agents involved in treatment of peripheral vascular diseases are discussed with special regard to the haemorheologically active xanthine derivative pentoxifylline. The profile of pentoxifylline as it emerges from experimental pharmacological and clinical studies is presented paying special attention to the haemorheological properties of the drug. Pharmacokinetic features of pentoxifylline are surveyed touching absorption, blood levels, metabolism and excretion aspects. Basing on the available data pentoxifylline is regarded as a promising drug in the treatment of circulatory ischemic disorders, especially in intermittent claudication.

Abstract
Methods of measuring flow of fluids by acoustic techniques before 1960 are reported, and motivation for such documentation is presented. Serendipity played a role in introducing acoustic flowmeters to the Institute of Experimental Medicine of the Mayo Graudate School of Medicine. Ultrasonic flowmeters promise to be clinically useful in procuring dimensions of blood vessels, in measuring flow transcutaneously, and in studying the dynamics of flowing blood within the diseased cardiovascular system.
