Synergist upper-limb resistance training reduces blood pressure in young normotensive men: a piloty study

Lifestyle Journal
Purpose: We aimed to verify the effects of 8 weeks of resistance training on the synergistic and non-synergistic routines on peripheral and central blood pressure, biochemical variables, and pulse wave behavior recreationally trained men.

Retrospective Assessment of Carbonic Anhydrase Inhibitors in Topical or Episcleral Implant Form for the Treatment of Equine Glaucoma

Veterinary Ophthalmology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To assess whether topical carbonic anhydrase inhibitors (CAIs) with or without episcleral brinzolamide implants control intraocular pressure (IOP) in horses with glaucoma. Animals Studied 12 client‐owned horses diagnosed with glaucoma.

Validation of Recalibrated IOPVet in Canine Eyes Compared to Manometry and Recalibrated TONOVET Plus

Veterinary Ophthalmology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the clinical and manometric accuracy of a recalibrated version of the IOPVet indentation tonometer in dogs, and to compare its performance to a recalibrated TonoVet Plus (rTVP) and in situ direct manometry. Animals Studied A total of 97 eyes from 49 client‐owned dogs were enrolled and divided into three groups: a ...

Applanation Tonometry for Assessment of Left Ventricular Systolic Load [PDF]

Journal of Biomedical & Clinical Research, 2019
Vascular-ventricular coupling is a major determinant of left ventricular load. The aim of our study was to assess non- invasively left ventricular load and its dependency on central hemodynamics.

Cerebrovascular pulsatility following long duration spaceflight is associated with changes in pulse pressure and carotid artery stiffness

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Central artery stiffening increases the haemodynamic pulsations transmitted downstream towards target organs, including the brain. While recent evidence suggests that long duration spaceflight is associated with reduced common carotid artery (CCA) distensibility, cerebrovascular pulsatility has not been extensively characterized in astronauts.

Trimethylamine N‐oxide is elevated in postmenopausal women relative to age‐matched men and premenopausal women among individuals with obesity

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Trimethylamine N‐oxide (TMAO) is linked to arterial stiffness and atherosclerosis. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk increases following menopause in women. Whether menopause influences plasma TMAO metabolism to mediate CVD risk is unknown.

Identification of the in vivo elastic properties of common carotid arteries from MRI: a study on subjects with and without atherosclerosis. [PDF]

, 2013
International audienceThe stiffness of the arterial wall, which is modified by many cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis, is known to be an indicator of vulnerability.
