Calculating vascular resistances [PDF]
Clinical Cardiology, 1997 AbstractVascular resistance calculations often affect decisions regarding therapeutic options encountered by physicians and their patients. However, many of the terms, units, and methods used when calculating vascular resistances are ambiguous. This report attempts to clarify some of these ambiguities and suggests methods for predicting normal vascular

Acute cardiovascular response after maximal cycling exercise in endurance- and strength-trained men
Journal of Men's Health, 2022 Background: Post-exercise hypotension is an important regulator of ambulatory blood pressure—an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Although post-exercise hypotension may be associated with aerobic exercise capacity in male athletes, it ...

Changes in Vascularization of Human Breast Cancer Xenografts Responding to Antiestrogen Therapy
Neoplasia: An International Journal for Oncology Research, 1999 To elucidate the previously suggested vascular effect(s) of antiestrogen therapy, we studied the effect of estrogen withdrawal and tamoxifen on 1) vascular resistance, 2) glucose and oxygen consumption, 3) vascular density in a perfused breast cancer ...
