5.1 INERTIAL-VISCOELASTIC MINIMAL MODEL OF THE ARTERIAL SYSTEM RECONCILES ARTERIAL COMPLIANCE ESTIMATIONS

open access: yesArtery Research, 2015
Background: The arterial system is viscoelastic rather than purely elastic. There exist various methods to characterize the purely elastic nature of arterial compliance, each method yielding different values.

Compliance Among Adolescents with Arterial Hypertension [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Clinical and Experimental Medicine, 2016
The term "compliance" means the degree to which the patient's behavior, applying medication or certain lifestyle changes, is consistent with arrangements communicated to him by a doctor or other healthcare professional. Literature indicates that the degree of adherence to medical recommendations for hypertensive patients is unsatisfactory, making it ...

Temporal Trends and Short‐ and Long‐Term Mortality of People With Acute Myocardial Infarction and Rheumatoid Arthritis: A Nationwide Cohort Study

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective We investigated whether a diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) affects the quality of inpatient acute myocardial infarction (AMI) care and long‐term mortality post‐AMI. Methods We analyzed data from 784,091 adults, 6,047 with a diagnosis of RA, from England and Wales hospitalized with AMI between 2005 and 2019 from the Myocardial Ischaemia ...

Acute vascular effects of the angiotensin II receptor antagonist olmesartan in normal subjects: relation to the renin-aldosterone system

open access: yesКардиоваскулярная терапия и профилактика, 2011
The extent to which the clinical effects of angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB) are related to ambient renin system activity remains poorly defined.

Mycophenolate Mofetil Treatment Reduces the Risk of Treatment Escalation Due to Vascular Complications in Limited Cutaneous Systemic Sclerosis: Emulation of a Target Trial From the Italian Rheumatology Society SPRING Registry

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) use in limited cutaneous systemic sclerosis (lcSSc) is relatively uncommon because of the lower fibrotic burden and the predominance of vascular complications. In vitro observations and clinical data from transplanted patients suggest a protective effect of MMF on endothelial function.

Formulas to Explain Popular Oscillometric Blood Pressure Estimation Algorithms

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2019
Oscillometry is the blood pressure (BP) measurement principle of most automatic cuff devices. The oscillogram (which is approximately the blood volume oscillation amplitude-external pressure function) is measured, and BP is then estimated via an ...

Differential Item Functioning on the Patient Health Questionnaire 8 by Disease Subtype, Language, Sex, and Age Among People With Systemic Sclerosis: A Scleroderma Patient‐Centered Intervention Network Cohort Study

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Somatic items used in depression assessments can potentially overlap with symptoms related to physical illness, including systemic sclerosis (SSc). No studies have looked at whether somatic depression items may be influenced by diffuse versus limited SSc disease subtypes, which are associated with varying degrees of symptom presentation.

Monro-Kellie 2.0: The dynamic vascular and venous pathophysiological components of intracranial pressure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
For 200 years, the ‘closed box’ analogy of intracranial pressure (ICP) has underpinned neurosurgery and neuro-critical care. Cushing conceptualised the Monro-Kellie doctrine stating that a change in blood, brain or CSF volume resulted in reciprocal ...

Assessing the Sensitivity and the Clinical Impact of the 2023 American College of Rheumatology/EULAR Classification Criteria in Obstetric Antiphospholid Syndrome: Findings From a Multicenter Italian Cohort With a Long‐Term Follow‐Up

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate the sensitivity of the 2023 American College of Rheumatology (ACR)/EULAR classification criteria for antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) in a real‐world cohort of women diagnosed with primary obstetric APS (oAPS) and to assess their ability to identify patients at risk of future pregnancy complications ...
