Venous leg ulceration (VLU) affects roughly 0.6 percent of the western population, with the management of this condition in Australia alone accounting for between AUD$554 and AUD$655 million in health care expenditure every year. Apart from these financial implications, VLU is also associated with a number of adverse psychosocial effects, including depression, anxiety, social isolation, impaired mobility and reduced working capacity. Whilst compression therapy remains the primary treatment of choice for VLU, discomfort, poor compliance and potentially serious complications demand that a more convenient, safer and efficacious treatment of venous ulceration be developed. A herbal extract proposed to advance venous ulcer healing through its venotonic, anti-inflammatory, anti-oedema, anti-enzymatic and anti-exudative properties is Horsechestnut Seed Extract (HCSE). / Thesis (PhDNursing)--University of South Australia, 2005.

Further aims were to determine whether the 5-HT- induced response of the aorta is representative of the serotonergic responses of other vessels from the marmoset, in particular the coronary artery. Studies were extended to vascular disease states following a high lipid diet and aortic balloon-catheterisation. Results are discussed. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Adelaide, Dept. of Clinical and Experimental Pharmacology, 1999
