Increased central artery stiffness in impaired glucose metabolism and type 2 diabetes - The Hoorn study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Impaired glucose metabolism (IGM) and type 2 diabetes (DM-2) are associated with high cardiovascular disease risk. Increases in peripheral and central artery stiffness may represent pathophysiologic pathways through which glucose tolerance status leads ...

Rapid and Accurate Pressure Sensing Device for Direct Measurement of Intraocular Pressure. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
PurposeIntraocular pressure (IOP) is the primary modifiable risk factor for glaucoma. Current devices measure IOP via the dynamic response of the healthy cornea and do not provide the accurate IOP measurements for patients with altered corneal ...
