Baseline predictors of central aortic blood pressure: A PEAR substudy [PDF]
Elevated central systolic blood pressure (BP) increases the risk of cardiovascular events and appears superior to peripheral BP for long term risk prediction. The objective of this study was to identify demographic and clinical factors associated with central pressures in patients with uncomplicated hypertension. We prospectively examined peripheral BP,

Measurement of Central Aortic Blood Pressure in Youth: Role of Obesity and Sex [PDF]
AbstractBACKGROUNDThe relationship between pediatric severe obesity (SO) and central aortic blood pressure (BP) has yet to be established.METHODSWe conducted a cross-sectional study of 348 youth (48.5% male, age 12.7 ± 0.1 years) with a wide range of body mass index (BMI) values: normal weight (NW; ≥5th and <85th BMI percentiles), overweight ...

The Effect of Microgravity on Central Aortic Blood Pressure [PDF]
Abstract BACKGROUND Blood pressure has been traditionally measured at peripheral arteries. In the past decade, evidence has grown that central aortic blood pressure may be a more powerful predictor for cardiovascular events, but data on its regulation are rare.

Alterations in central hemodynamic in patients with COPD after acute high intensity exercise
The present study investigated the relationship between central hemodynamics and lung function and the response to an acute bout of exercise in COPD.Methods Based on the severity of COPD, moderate group (MOD, n = 12) and more mild group (MLD, n = 12 ...

Estimating central blood pressure from aortic flow: development and assessment of algorithms [PDF]
First, our proposed methods for CV parameter estimation and a comprehensive set of methods from the literature were tested using in silico and clinical datasets. Second, optimized algorithms for estimating cBP from aortic flow were developed and tested for a wide range of cBP morphologies, including catheter cBP data. Third, a dataset of simulated cBP
