Universal Approach to Optimal Photon Storage in Atomic Media [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We present a universal physical picture for describing storage and retrieval of photon wave packets in a Lambda-type atomic medium. This physical picture encompasses a variety of different approaches to pulse storage ranging from adiabatic reduction of ...

Pulse Wave Velocity in Familial Combined Hyperlipidemia [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican 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

On-chip laser Doppler vibrometer for arterial pulse wave velocity measurement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Pulse wave velocity (PWV) is an important marker for cardiovascular risk. The Laser Doppler vibrometry has been suggested as a potential technique to measure the local carotid PWV by measuring the transit time of the pulse wave between two locations ...

Novel Methods for Pulse Wave Velocity Measurement [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Medical and Biological Engineering, 2015
The great incidence of cardiovascular (CV) diseases in the world spurs the search for new solutions to enable an early detection of pathological processes and provides more precise diagnosis based in multi-parameters assessment. The pulse wave velocity (PWV) is considered one of the most important clinical parameters for evaluate the CV risk, vascular ...

P6.01 IMPLANTABLE PULSE WAVE VELOCITY SENSOR

open access: yesArtery Research, 2013
In case of vascular weakness or thrombosis stents are implanted and brace vessels from the inside to assure the proper blood flow. A widespread method to monitor the state of blood vessels in terms of their stiffness and diameter is to measure the pulse ...

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

open access: yesAlzheimer’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 ...

Estimation of central pulse wave velocity from radial pulse wave analysis [PDF]

open access: yesComputer Methods and Programs in Biomedicine, 2022
Arterial stiffness, commonly assessed by carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV), is an independent biomarker for cardiovascular disease. The measurement of cfPWV, however, has been considered impractical for routine clinical application. Pulse wave analysis using a single pulse wave measurement in the radial artery is a convenient alternative ...

Do higher dialysate calcium concentrations increase vascular stiffness in haemodialysis patients as measured by aortic pulse wave velocity? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Background: Haemodialysis patients have an increased prevalence of hypertension and risk of cardiovascular mortality and stroke. Higher dialysate calcium concentrations have been reported to cause both an acute and chronic increase in arterial ...
