A radiomics approach to analyze cardiac alterations in hypertension [PDF]
, 2020 Hypertension is a medical condition that is well-established as a risk factor for many major diseases. For example, it can cause alterations in the cardiac structure and function over time that can lead to heart related morbidity and mortality. However, at the subclinical stage, these changes are subtle and cannot be easily captured using conventional ...

Corneal retardation time as an ocular hypertension disease indicator [PDF]
Biomedical Physics & Engineering Express, 2023, 2023 Objective. A detailed analysis of the corneal retardation time $\tau$ as a highly related parameter to the intraocular pressure (IOP), and its plausible role as an indicator of ocular hypertension disease. Approach. A simple theoretical expression for $\tau$ is derived within the corneal viscoelastic model of Kelvin-Voigt with 3 elements.

SNPs Filtered by Allele Frequency Improve the Prediction of Hypertension Subtypes [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Hypertension is the leading global cause of cardiovascular disease and premature death. Distinct hypertension subtypes may vary in their prognoses and require different treatments. An individual's risk for hypertension is determined by genetic and environmental factors as well as their interactions.
