Structural and hemodynamic properties in murine pulmonary arterial networks under hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension [PDF]
Detection and monitoring of patients with pulmonary hypertension, defined as mean blood pressure in the main pulmonary artery above 25 mmHg, requires a combination of imaging and hemodynamic measurements. This study demonstrates how to combine imaging data from microcomputed tomography (micro-CT) images with hemodynamic pressure and flow waveforms from

Arterial stiffening provides sufficient explanation for primary hypertension [PDF]
Hypertension is one of the most common age-related chronic diseases and by predisposing individuals for heart failure, stroke and kidney disease, it is a major source of morbidity and mortality. Its etiology remains enigmatic despite intense research efforts over many decades.

Application and reduction of a nonlinear hyperelastic wall model capturing ex vivo relationships between fluid pressure, area and wall thickness in normal and hypertensive murine left pulmonary arteries [PDF]
Pulmonary hypertension is a cardiovascular disorder manifested by elevated arterial blood pressure together with vessel wall stiffening and thickening due to alterations in collagen, elastin and smooth muscle cells. Hypoxia-induced (type 3) pulmonary hypertension can be studied in animals exposed to a low oxygen environment for prolonged time periods ...

Molecular Mechanisms of Kidney Injury and Repair in Arterial Hypertension [PDF]
The global burden of chronic kidney disease is rising. The etiologies, heterogeneous, and arterial hypertension, are key factors contributing to the development and progression of chronic kidney disease. Arterial hypertension is induced and maintained by

Response to pulmonary arterial hypertension drug therapies in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension and cardiovascular risk factors. [PDF]
The age at diagnosis of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and the prevalence of cardiovascular (CV) risk factors are increasing. We sought to determine whether the response to drug therapy was influenced by CV risk factors in PAH patients. We studied

Pulmonary arterial hypertension: pathogenesis and clinical management
Pulmonary hypertension is defined as a resting mean pulmonary artery pressure of 25 mm Hg or above. This review deals with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), a type of pulmonary hypertension that primarily affects the pulmonary vasculature.

Cerebral autoregulation in patients with acute lacunar infarction: a reliable predictor of outcome
Abstract Objective To further investigate the association between dynamic cerebral autoregulation (dCA) and the outcomes in patients with acute lacunar infarction. Methods Patients were prospectively and consecutively enrolled at The First Hospital of Jilin University between 2016 and 2023. dCA was monitored at 1–3 and 7–10 days after the stroke.
