The Impact of Aging on the Association Between Aortic Stiffness and Cerebral Pulsatility Index
The central arteries dampen the pulsatile forces from myocardial contraction, limiting the pulsatility that reaches the cerebral vasculature, although there are limited data on this relationship with aging in humans.

Recent studies have shown that optical indices of cerebral pulsatility, including cerebral pulse amplitude, are linked to cerebrovascular health. A chronically higher cerebral pulsatility is associated with cognitive decline.

Role of Uterine Artery Doppler at 11-14 Weeks of Pregnancy in Early Prediction of Preeclampsia: A Prospective Cohort Study [PDF]
Introduction: Doppler ultrasonography, by comparing systolic and diastolic waveforms helps in assessment of uteroplacental circulation. Since preeclampsia has ethnic and geographical variations, it is important to understand the prediction modalities in ...

4.2 Biological and Vascular Contributors to Cerebral Pulsatility and Pulsatile Damping
Cerebral pulsatility is an emerging contributor to brain health that reflects the balance between the transmission and damping (i.e. attenuation) of pulsatility through extracranial vessels into the cerebrovasculature.

Low Carotid Flow Pulsatility Index Correlates With the Presence of Unruptured Intracranial Aneurysms
Background We assessed cases of incidental unruptured intracranial aneurysm (UIA) discovered on screening magnetic resonance angiography to identify hemodynamic and atherosclerotic risk factors. Methods and Results The data of 1376 healthy older subjects

Association between trunk flexibility and renal flow pulsatility in middle-aged and older adults
Background: Recent clinical studies have indicated that poor trunk flexibility is associated with arterial stiffness in the aged. Arterial stiffness leads to elevated renal flow pulsatility, which accelerates age-related renal dysfunction and damages ...

Fetal Ductus Venosus Pulsatility Index and Diameter during Second and Third Trimester of Gestation
Introduction: The ductus venosus is a small funnel shaped vessel found posterior to the fetal liver connecting the intra-abdominal umbilical vein and the inferior vena cava. It is one of the three physiological shunts in the fetus.

Background: Higher cerebral blood flow (CBF) pulsatility was found to be associated with severer brain white matter lesions in the elderly [1]. It was hypothesized that the central/elastic arterial stiffness/compliance may directly affect CBF pulsatility.

Effect of Acute Resistance Exercise on Carotid Artery Stiffness and Cerebral Blood Flow Pulsatility
Arterial stiffness is associated with cerebral flow pulsatility. Arterial stiffness increases following acute resistance exercise (RE). Whether this acute RE-induced vascular stiffening affects cerebral pulsatility remains unknown.
