Reproducibility and agreement of pulse wave velocity and augmentation index over repeated assessments using two different devices in adolescents. [PDF]

open access: yesClin Physiol Funct Imaging
Abstract Objectives We investigated the agreement between pulse wave velocity (PWV) and augmentation index (AIx%) obtained in a controlled fasted condition versus a non‐fasted, uncontrolled, “real‐world” condition. Thereafter, we assessed the reproducibility of PWV and AIx% over three repeated visits under controlled fasted conditions.

The relationship between the prevalence and complexity of coronary artery disease and aortic stiffness in myocardial infarction patients without ST-segment elevation

open access: yesInternational Journal of the Cardiovascular Academy, 2020
Background: The relationship between elastic properties of the aorta and presence of coronary artery disease (CAD) has been investigated in previous studies. However, the relationship of aortic stiffness (AS) with extent and complexity of CAD in patients

A Gradient Boosting Decision Tree Based Correction Model for AIRS Infrared Water Vapor Product

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
High‐quality precipitable water vapor (PWV) measurements have an essential role in climate change and weather prediction studies. The Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) instrument provides an opportunity to measure PWV at infrared (IR) bands twice daily

State of the Art Review: Brachial-Ankle PWV

open access: yesJournal of Atherosclerosis and Thrombosis, 2020
The brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (brachial-ankle PWV), which is measured simply by wrapping pressure cuffs around the four extremities, is a simple marker to assess the stiffness of the medium- to large- sized arteries. The accuracy and reproducibility of its measurement have been confirmed to be acceptable.

Measurement of flow-mediated dilatation using near-infrared transmission images of finger blood vessels (Comparison with brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity)

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2017
Arterial endothelial function is known as a factor that correlates with progression of arteriosclerosis. This is measured by flowmediated dilatation (FMD) testing. This test is performed by measuring the brachial artery diameter with an ultrasound system

Segmental arterial stiffness in relation to B-type natriuretic peptide with preserved systolic heart function. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Central arterial stiffness has been shown to play a key role in cardiovascular disease. However, evidence regarding such arterial stiffness from various arterial segments in relation to B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) remains elusive.A total of 1255 ...

THE RELATIONSHIP OF KIDNEY FUNCTION WITH ARTERIAL WALL CONDITION IN INDIVIDUALS WITHOUT CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE AND CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASES

open access: yesКлиническая практика, 2017
Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a known risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, there is a small information about increased risk of CVD already with a slight decrease in kidney function.

Analysis of spatial and temporal variation of precipitable water vapor using COSMIC radio occultation observations over Egypt

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Remote Sensing and Space Sciences, 2022
Precipitable water vapor (PWV) is a meteorological variable that impacts the major atmospheric processes. It is a non-homogeneous variable that differs spatially and temporally.
