Electrophysiological Studies of the Smooth Muscle Cell Membrane of the Rabbit Common Carotid Artery

The Journal of General Physiology, 1971
The electrical responses of the smooth muscle cells of the rabbit common carotid artery to extracellular stimulation were studied in isotonic and hypertonic solution (1.7 times normal tonicity) with microelectrodes.

A comparison between local wave speed in the carotid and femoral arteries in healthy humans: application of a new method [PDF]

, 2010
The wave speed (c) and the arrival time of reflected wave (Trw) in the common left carotid artery and common left femoral artery have been evaluated in 70 healthy subjects, aged 35-55 years with a non-invasive method.

ASCORE: an up-to-date cardiovascular risk score for hypertensive patients reflecting contemporary clinical practice developed using the (ASCOT-BPLA) trial data. [PDF]

, 2013
A number of risk scores already exist to predict cardiovascular (CV) events. However, scores developed with data collected some time ago might not accurately predict the CV risk of contemporary hypertensive patients that benefit from more modern ...

Biophysical Effects of Adrenaline on the Smooth Muscle of the Rabbit Common Carotid Artery

The Journal of General Physiology, 1972
Effects of adrenaline on the smooth muscle of the rabbit common carotid artery were studied by the partitional chamber method. The experiments on excitation-contraction coupling were carried out in isotonic Krebs solution; the other experiments were ...
