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

Determination of wave speed and distensibility of flexible tubes using diameter and velocity [PDF]
, 2009 It is well accepted that wave speed is one of the key factors describing wave propagation in arteries. Local wave speed is directly related to the mechanical properties of the arterial wall and is widely used to determine the arterial distensibility ...

Automating the determination of wave speed using the pu-loop method [PDF]
, 2005 The PU-loop (pressure-velocity loop) is a method for determining wave speed and relies on the linear relationship between the pressure and velocity in the absence of reflected waves.

Simultaneous determination of wave speed and arrival time of reflected waves using the pressure-velocity loop [PDF]
, 2007 This is the post print version of the article. The official published version can be found at the link below.In a previous paper we demonstrated that the linear portion of the pressure–velocity loop (PU-loop) corresponding to early systole could be used ...
