Challenges for microcirculation research in developing countries.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:Microvascular dysfunction is a main contributor to morbidity and mortality worldwide. Sophisticated technical tools (e.g. miniaturized hardware, automated software), along with skilled personnel are the prerequisite for quantitative observations of the microvasculature. OBJECTIVE:This review aimed to get an overview about on-going microcirculatory research in developing countries, particularly of the South-East Asia region for the last five years and to project the challenges faced in microcirculation research in developing countries. METHODS:Original research articles originating from 194 countries were searched in PubMed database on the field of microcirculation research for the last five years. RESULTS:Our findings showed that around 1800 articles have been published from developing countries compared to more than 5000 from developed countries on different aspects of microcirculation. The overall publication per million populations for developing countries was found to be 0.37 where for developed countries it was 3.62. CONCLUSIONS:Initiation and execution of sophisticated research in microcirculation is a demand of the time. Such research, initially, may seem unmanageable in developing countries with limited resources and infrastructure settings. Collaborative scientific projects may aid in establishing networks for microvascular research in developing countries.
