Stability of patterns on thick curved surfaces [PDF]

Phys. Rev. E 94, 022403 (2016), 2015
We consider reaction-diffusion equations on a thick curved surface and obtain a set of effective R-D equation to ${\cal O}(\epsilon^2)$, where $\epsilon$ is the surface thickness. We observe that the R-D systems on these curved surfaces can have space- dependent reaction kinetics.

Meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies from the CHARGE consortium identifies common variants associated with carotid intima media thickness and plaque [PDF]

, 2011
Carotid intima media thickness (cIMT) and plaque determined by ultrasonography are established measures of subclinical atherosclerosis that each predicts future cardiovascular disease events.

Femoral Artery Atherosclerosis Is Associated With Physical Function Across the Spectrum of the Ankle-Brachial Index: The San Diego Population Study. [PDF]

, 2017
BackgroundThe ankle-brachial index (ABI) is inadequate to detect early-stage atherosclerotic disease, when interventions to prevent functional decline may be the most effective.

Influence of Inflammatory Variables on Intima-Media Thickness [PDF]

Stroke, 2008
To the Editor: The increase of carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) is a validated marker for atherosclerotic progression,1 and it has been related to a higher incidence of cardiovascular events.2 However, data focusing on its determinants are scarce.

Serum amyloid A in children and adolescents: association with overweight and carotid intima-media thickness

Einstein (São Paulo), 2023
Objective To compare serum amyloid A concentrations between overweight and eutrophic children and adolescents and to relate it to lipid profiles, glucose tolerance, and carotid intima-media thickness. Methods One hundred children and adolescents (mean

Carotid Intima-Media Thickness as a Surrogate Endpoint

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2011
We read with great interest the recently published meta-analysis by Costanzo et al. ([1][1]) investigating whether changes in carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) affect major cardiovascular endpoints, including cardiovascular-related and all-cause mortality.

Thickness Dependence of Magneto-transport Properties in Tungsten Ditelluride [PDF]

, 2021
We investigate the electronic structure of tungsten ditelluride (WTe$_2$) flakes with different thicknesses in magneto-transport studies. The temperature-dependent resistance and magnetoresistance (MR) measurements both confirm the breaking of carrier balance induced by thickness reduction, which suppresses the `turn-on' behavior and large positive MR.

Natural History of Atherosclerosis and Abdominal Aortic Intima-Media Thickness: Rationale, Evidence, and Best Practice for Detection of Atherosclerosis in the Young

Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2019
Atherosclerosis underlies most myocardial infarctions and ischemic strokes. The timing of onset and the rate of progression of atherosclerosis differ between individuals and among arterial sites.
