Pulse Wave Velocity in Postmenopausal Women [PDF]

Pulse, 2013
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) and osteoporosis are major causes of morbidity and mortality in postmenopausal women. The relationship between atherosclerosis and osteoporosis has been established by studies of the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms and biochemical pathways that seem to overlap in many places. Pulse wave velocity (PWV) is one of the

Frequency conversion based on three-wave parametric solitons [PDF]

, 2010
Parametric three-wave mixing in quadratic nonlinear crystals provides a versatile means of achieving widely tunable frequency conversion of laser light, thus permitting a substantial extension of the wavelength coverage of laser sources across broad ...

Brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity and symptomatic cerebral infarction in patients with type 2 diabetes: a cross-sectional study

Cardiovascular Diabetology, 2003
Background Recently a new automatic device that measures brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity using an oscillometric method has been developed. However, the practical significance of brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity measurement remains uncertain.

Elevated levels of urine isocitrate, hydroxymethylglutarate, and formiminoglutamate are associated with arterial stiffness in Korean adults

Scientific Reports, 2021
Recent evidence suggests that cellular perturbations play an important role in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, we analyzed the association between the levels of urinary metabolites and arterial stiffness. Our cross-sectional study

Validity and reproducibility of arterial pulse wave velocity measurement using new device with oscillometric technique: A pilot study

BioMedical Engineering OnLine, 2005
Background Availability of a range of techniques and devices allow measurement of many variables related to the stiffness of large or medium sized arteries. There is good evidence that, pulse wave velocity is a relatively simple measurement and is a good

Pulse Wave Velocity in Familial Combined Hyperlipidemia [PDF]

American Journal of Hypertension, 2007
In the present cross-sectional study we investigated whether familial combined hyperlipidemia (FCH) is associated with an increased arterial wall stiffness, and whether measures of arterial wall stiffness in FCH family members could contribute to cardiovascular risk stratification.Ninety-eight subjects with FCH and 230 unaffected relatives filled out a

Arterial stiffening acts synergistically with APOE genotype and AD biomarker status to influence memory in older adults without dementia

Alzheimer’s Research & Therapy, 2021
Background Arterial stiffening has emerged as an important risk factor for Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and related dementias. Carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity has been proposed as a non-invasive and reproducible method to assess arterial stiffness ...
