Invasive physiological indices to determine the functional significance of coronary stenosis
International Journal of Cardiology: Heart & Vasculature, 2018 Physiological measurements are now commonly used to assess coronary lesions in the cardiac catheterisation laboratory, and this practice is evidence-based and supported by clinical guidelines. Fractional flow reserve is currently the gold standard method

Outflow boundary conditions for 3D simulations of non-periodic blood flow and pressure fields in deformable arteries [PDF]
, 2010 The simulation of blood flow and pressure in arteries requires outflow boundary conditions that incorporate models of downstream domains. We previously described a coupled multidomain method to couple analytical models of the downstream domains with 3D ...

Large-eddy simulation of physiological pulsatile flow through a channel with double constriction [PDF]
, 2016 Pulsatile flow in a 3D model of arterial double stenoses is investigated using a large eddy simulation (LES) technique. The computational domain that has been chosen is a simple channel with a biological-type stenosis formed eccentrically on the top wall.

Acute short-term mental stress does not influence salivary flow rate dynamics. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 BACKGROUND: Results of studies that address the influence of stress on salivary flow rate and composition are controversial. The aim of this study was to reveal the influence of stress vulnerability and different phases of stress reactivity on the ...

Physiological confounders of renal blood flow measurement
Magnetic Resonance Materials in Physics, Biology and Medicine, 2023 Abstract Objectives Renal blood flow (RBF) is controlled by a number of physiological factors that can contribute to the variability of its measurement. The purpose of this review is to assess the changes in RBF in response to a wide range of physiological confounders and derive practical recommendations on patient ...
