Extremely short duration sprint interval training improves vascular health in older adults [PDF]
, 2018 Exercise improves health and physical function in older people, but very few older people participate although the trend is for increasing participation. This study sought to determine whether short duration sprint interval training (SIT) improves health

Effects of weight loss and insulin reduction on arterial stiffness in the SAVE trial
Cardiovascular Diabetology, 2012 Background Chronic arterial stiffness contributes to the negative health effects of obesity and insulin resistance, which include hypertension, stroke, and increased cardiovascular and all-cause mortality. Weight loss and improved insulin sensitivity are

Pulmonary artery stiffness in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (copd) and emphysema: The Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA) COPD Study [PDF]
, 2018 Purpose: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and particularly emphysema are characterized by stiffness of the aorta, due in part to accelerated elastin degradation in the lungs and aorta. Stiffness of the pulmonary arteries (PAs) may also be

Vascular phyllotaxis transition and an evolutionary mechanism of phyllotaxis [PDF]
Scientific Reports 5, 15358 (2015), 2012 Leaves of vascular plants are arranged regularly around stems, a phenomenon known as phyllotaxis. A constant angle between two successive leaves is called divergence angle. On the one side, the divergence angle $\alpha_0$ of an initial pattern of leaf primordia at a shoot apex is most commonly an irrational number of about 137.5 degrees, called limit ...

Analytical modeling of laminated composite rings on nonreciprocal elastic foundations under non-axisymmetric loading [PDF]
arXivA mechanical model of a laminated composite ring on a nonreciprocal elastic foundation is a valuable engineering tool during the early design stages of various applications, such as non-pneumatic wheels, flexible bearings, expandable tubulars in oil wells, and vascular stents interacting with blood vessel linings, especially under non-axisymmetric ...
