Braid-positive Legendrian links [PDF]
, 2006 Any link that is the closure of a positive braid has a natural Legendrian representative. These were introduced in an earlier paper, where their Chekanov--Eliashberg contact homology was also evaluated.

Contact homology and one parameter families of Legendrian knots
, 2005 We consider S^1-families of Legendrian knots in the standard contact R^3. We define the monodromy of such a loop, which is an automorphism of the Chekanov-Eliashberg contact homology of the starting (and ending) point.

Frontiers in Physiology, 2023 Introduction: Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remain the main cause of morbidity and mortality in Malaysia and worldwide. This is mainly due to an increase in the prevalence of CVD risk factors such as hypertension, dyslipidemia, smoking, and obesity ...

Augmentation index is related to white matter lesions [PDF]
Hypertension Research, 2012 The augmentation index (AIx) is a measure of pulse wave reflection from peripheral muscular conduit arteries, and is assumed to increase with stiffened arteries. A white matter lesion (WML) is generally regarded as a chronic ischemic lesion, which is associated with cerebral small-vessel arteriosclerosis.

Pairwise Tests of Purchasing Power Parity Using Aggregate and Disaggregate Price Measures [PDF]
, 2006 In this paper we adopt a new approach to testing for purchasing power parity, PPP, that is robust to base country effects, cross-section dependence, and aggregation.

Arterial stiffness in women previously with preeclampsia from a semi-rural region of South Africa
Clinical and Experimental Hypertension, 2019 Women with pre-eclampsia have an increased risk of cardiovascular disease later in life. The aim of the study was to establish the presence and pattern of arterial stiffness in women previously with pre-eclampsia from a semi-rural region of South Africa.

Augmentation Index, Left Ventricular Contractility, and Wave Reflection [PDF]
Hypertension, 2009 Augmentation index (AIx), a correlate of mortality, is thought to be influenced by left ventricular contractility and wave reflections. However, the relationship of AIx with left ventricular contractility changes has never been assessed, and the wave reflection theory has recently been questioned.

DiagnosticsBackground/Objectives: Heart failure (HF) remains a leading cause of hospitalization and morbidity. Arterial stiffness, measured by pulse wave velocity (PWV) and the augmentation index (AIx), has been linked to HF severity and prognosis.
