Magnetic Resonance Elastography and Portal Hypertension: Influence of the Portal Venous Flow on the Liver Stiffness [PDF]
Stem Cells and Regenerative Medicine -- the 9th International
Europe-China Symposium, Strasbourg 2-4 Oct 2019, In press, 2020 The invasive measurement of the hepatic venous pressure gradient is still considered as the reference method to assess the severity of portal hypertension. Even though previous studies have shown that the liver stiffness measured by elastography could predict portal hypertension in patients with chronic liver disease, the mechanisms behind remain today

Influence of some cardiovascular risk factors on the rela-tionship between age and blood pressure [PDF]
NORDIC BALTIC CONFERENCE ON Biomedical Engineering and Medical
Physics 2020, 2020 Blood Pressure (BP) is a biological signal related to the cardiovascular system that inevitably is affected by ageing. Moreover, it is also influenced by the presence of cardiovascular risk factors. To evaluate how the relationship be-tween BP and age changes with the presence of risk factors in hypertensive and normotensive subjects, we analyzed 880 ...
