Clinical Associations of Vascular Stiffness, Microvascular Dysfunction, and Prevalent Cardiovascular Disease in a Black Cohort: The Jackson Heart Study

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2020
Background Measures of vascular dysfunction are related to adverse cardiovascular disease (CVD) outcomes in non‐Hispanic, White populations; however, data from Black individuals are limited.

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

Patterning the Void: Combining L‐Systems with Archimedean Tessellations as a Perspective for Tissue Engineering Scaffolds

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces a novel multi‐scale scaffold design using L‐fractals arranged in Archimedean tessellations for tissue regeneration. Despite similar porosity, tiles display vastly different tensile responses (1–100 MPa) and deformation modes. In vitro experiments with hMSCs show geometry‐dependent growth and activity. Over 55 000 tile combinations

First SDO AIA Observations of a Global Coronal EUV "Wave": Multiple Components and "Ripples"

, 2012
We present the first SDO AIA observations of a global coronal EUV disturbance (so-called "EIT wave") revealed in unprecedented detail. The disturbance observed on 2010 April 8 exhibits two components: one diffuse pulse superimposed on which are multiple ...

Domain Nucleation and Growth in an Epitaxially Grown Wurtzite Ferroelectric

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Ferroelectric domain nucleation and growth in epitaxial wurtzite (Al, B, Sc)N films are visualized through in situ transmission electron microscopy. Domains initiate near the bottom electrode and propagate laterally with zigzag walls, while unswitched regions remain near the electrode interfaces.

A novel drifter designed for use with a mounted Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler in shallow environments [PDF]

, 2013
We present a novel design for a surface drifter, mounted with a pulse-coherent Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) for measuring near-surface (depths 0.18-1 m) flows.

Unveiling Phonon Contributions to Thermal Conductivity and the Applicability of the Wiedemann—Franz Law in Ruthenium and Tungsten Thin Films

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Thermal transport in Ru and W thin films is studied using steady‐state thermoreflectance, ultrafast pump–probe spectroscopy, infrared‐visible spectroscopy, and computations. Significant Lorenz number deviations reveal strong phonon contributions, reaching 45% in Ru and 62% in W.
