Left ventricular dysfunction measured by tissue Doppler imaging and strain rate imaging in hypertensive adolescents [PDF]
, 2010 Purpose : Left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy and impaired diastolic function may occur early in systemic hypertension. Diastolic dysfunction is associated with increased cardiovascular risk.

Cardiovascular abnormalities and impaired exercise performance in adolescents with congenital adrenal hyperplasia [PDF]
, 2015 Context: Patients with classic Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH) are treated with lifelong glucocorticoids (GCS). Cardiovascular (CV) and metabolic effects of such therapy in adolescents have never been quantified.

Endothelial barrier dysfunction in diabetic conduit arteries: a novel method to quantify filtration [PDF]
, 2012 The endothelial barrier plays an important role in atherosclerosis, hyperglycemia, and hypercholesterolemia. In the present study, an accurate, reproducible, and user-friendly method was used to further understand endothelial barrier function of conduit ...

Eshelby inclusions in granular matter: theory and simulations
, 2016 We present a numerical implementation of an active inclusion in a granular material submitted to a biaxial test. We discuss the dependence of the response to this perturbation on two parameters: the intra-granular friction coefficient on one hand, the ...

Early carotid atherosclerosis and cardiac diastolic abnormalities in hypertensive subjects [PDF]
, 2004 Despite the fact that it is known that hypertension may be associated to early atherosclerosis manifestations, few data are to date available on the relationship between early carotid abnormalities and left ventricular diastolic dysfunction.

Quantitative assessment of regional peak myocardial acceleration during isovolumic contraction and relaxation times by tissue Doppler imaging [PDF]
Heart, 2005 To examine regional wall acceleration and its relation to relaxation.8 sheep were examined by tissue Doppler ultrasound imaging (VingMed Vivid FiVe) in apical four chamber views to evaluate the left ventricular wall divided into six segments and the mitral annulus in two segments.
