Injectable Bubbles for Physiological Pressure Measurement [PDF]
Microbubbles - used as contrast agents in ultrasound imaging - are important tools in biomedical research, having been used together with ultrasound to develop significant diagnostic and therapeutic techniques. It has been suggested that the dynamic behaviour of microbubbles is dependent on the surrounding fluid's ambient (hydrostatic) pressure, and ...

Quantile regression for mixed models with an application to examine blood pressure trends in China [PDF]
Cardiometabolic diseases have substantially increased in China in the past 20 years and blood pressure is a primary modifiable risk factor. Using data from the China Health and Nutrition Survey, we examine blood pressure trends in China from 1991 to 2009, with a concentration on age cohorts and urbanicity.
