Evaluation of the Cardio-Ankle Vascular Index, a New Indicator of Arterial Stiffness Independent of Blood Pressure, in Obesity and Metabolic Syndrome Aortic stiffness is predictive of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and mortality in lifestyle-related diseases. The cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI), a...
Flush method for blood pressure determinations in newborn infants A visual method of determination of blood pressures in newborn infants is presented. The cuff is placed around the ankle or wrist in the usual manner and a piece of rubber sheeting or old rubber glove is wrapped snugly around th...
“thicker”. The blood volume decreases, making it more difficult for the heart to transport the blood through the body. To compensate for this effect, the heart rate increases. In the case of dehydration, not only the pulse rate increases, but at the same time the blood pressure also ...
Blood pressure was measured twice at the right upper arm with a random-zero mercury sphygmomanometer with the participant in the sitting position. Systolic and diastolic blood pressures were calculated as the average of the 2 consecutive measurements. Hypertension was defined as a systolic blood ...

Materials and methods Eleven patients implanted with the BOX Ankle (Finsbury Orthopaedics, Leatherhead-Surrey, UK) were analyzed at 12 months after surgery. GA was performed during stair-climbing/descending using a 8-cameras motion system (Vicon Motion Systems, Oxford, UK), electromyography (Zero...
Ankle-bend and CatWalk results indicated lower pain sensitivity in hypertensive rats only in SHR and DPSPX models. The present study shows the importance of using multiple models of hypertension, and evaluating pain responses by various methods, to better understand the complexity of the interactions...
