Comparison between radial artery tonometry pulse analyzer and pulsed-Doppler echocardiography derived hemodynamic parameters in cardiac surgery patients: a pilot study

open access: yesPeerJ, 2017
Background Bedside non-invasive techniques, such as radial artery tonometry, to estimate hemodynamic parameters have gained increased relevance as an attractive alternative and efficient method to measure hemodynamics in outpatient departments.

Axial length, myopia progression, and myopic maculopathy in Stickler syndrome

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose We lack knowledge on the potentially progressive nature of and the prevalence of complications to myopia as a characteristic trait of Stickler syndrome. Methods This cross‐sectional study combines ophthalmic examination and medical record data on Danish patients with genetically confirmed Stickler syndrome type 1 (COL2A1) and type 2 ...

Mental stress as a trigger of cardiovascular events: A narrative review

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Clinical Investigation, EarlyView.
Stress stimulates the prefrontal cortex that in turns activates the limbic system with subsequent activation of the autonomic nervous system. The autonomic nervous system then stimulates the heart, vessels, endocrine and immune systems with a bidirectional communication. These mechanisms increase heart rate and blood pressure, promote vasoconstriction,

Hemodynamic and microcirculatory early adaptations following transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI): A physiological pilot study

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Clinical Investigation, EarlyView.
This pilot physiological study, involving 20 patients with severe aortic stenosis, shows that transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) induces rapid changes in both macrocirculatory parameters, reflecting the release of chronic obstruction. We observed improved tissue perfusion by postoperative Day 1, independent of macrocirculatory parameters ...

Intraocular pressure and ocular biomechanical parameters vary between generations of the ocular response analyzer in healthy and ectatic eyes

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine
IntroductionThis study evaluated the agreement between a third-generation (G3) ocular response analyzer (ORA) and a first-generation (G1) ORA, and tested the ability of the keratoconus match index (KMI) to identify keratoconus.MethodsHealthy participants

Feasibility, Validity and Economic Impact of a Home‐Based Sleep Screening Test in the Detection of Sleep‐Related Breathing Disorders in Individuals Living With Spinal Cord Injury: A Multi‐Method Study and Cost‐Minimisation Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This prospective multi‐method study was performed to assess the feasibility and validity of an unattended home‐based sleep screening test (HBSST) in the detection of sleep‐related breathing disorders (SRBDs) among individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI).
