Diastolic Augmentation Index Improves Radial Augmentation Index in Assessing Arterial Stiffness

Scientific Reports, 2017
Arterial stiffness is an important risk factor for cardiovascular events. Radial augmentation index (AI r ) can be more conveniently measured compared with carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV).

Augmentation Index in Patients with Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm: A Matched Case-Control Study [PDF]

Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2022
Thoracic aortic aneurysms (TAA) may be associated with complications such as rupture and dissection, which can lead to a fatal outcome. Increased central arterial stiffness has been proposed to be present in patients with TAA compared to unmatched ...

An Index for Quantitative Assessment of Lip Augmentation [PDF]

Aesthetic Surgery Journal, 2010
Lip dimensions and their relation to the whole face have been discussed mainly in the dental literature. There have been few attempts to scientifically measure the degree of lip augmentation, regardless of method.The authors describe a Lip Index that will allow reliable, quantitative analysis of the human lip complex, which is necessary to assess the ...

Cerebral Augmentation Effect Induced by External Counterpulsation Is Not Related to Impaired Dynamic Cerebral Autoregulation in Ischemic Stroke

Frontiers in Neurology, 2022
Background and PurposeDynamic cerebral autoregulation is impaired after ischemic stroke. External counterpulsation (ECP) augments the cerebral blood flow of patients with ischemic stroke by elevation of blood pressure (BP).

Different circadian patterns of arterial stiffness are responsible for increased cardiovascular mortality in hemodialyzed patients

Physiological Reports, 2021
We hypothesized that volume changes during 48‐h are associated with different circadian patterns of arterial stiffness on non‐dialysis day compared to dialysis day and that the night‐time increase of arterial stiffness is associated with higher mortality.

Role of Altered Metabolism of Triglyceride-Rich Lipoprotein Particles in the Development of Vascular Dysfunction in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

Biomolecules, 2023
Background: Impaired lipid metabolism contributes to accelerated inflammatory responses in addition to promoting the formation of atherosclerosis in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).

Augmented eccentric connectivity index [PDF]

Miskolc Mathematical Notes, 2011
We review basic mathematical properties of the augmented eccentric connectivity index. Explicit formulas are presented for several classes of graphs, in particular for some open and closed unbranched polymers and nanostructures. Asymptotic behavior is explored and compression ratios are computed for those polymers.

Peripheral Augmentation Index [PDF]

Hypertension, 2008
Peripheral blood pressure (BP) measurement has remained essentially unchanged over the last century, and many researchers believe that changes in such measurements fully account for the benefits of antihypertensive treatment in clinical trials.1 Indeed, the wealth of data supporting a strong association between cuff measurements and adverse ...
