Vascular assessment is becoming increasingly important in the diagnosis of cardiovascular
diseases. In particular, clinical assessment of arterial stiffness, as measured by pulse wave …

Objective: Reducing prolonged sitting at work has been recommended by an expert panel,
but whether intermittent standing improves vascular health is unclear. We aimed to test …

In a cross-sectional analysis of a case-control study in 2015, we revealed the association
between increased arterial stiffness (pulse wave velocity) and aircraft noise exposure. In …

Aims Apart from cardiotoxicity, the chemotherapeutic doxorubicin (DOX) induces vascular
toxicity, represented by arterial stiffness and endothelial dysfunction. Both parameters are of …

Background Aortic stiffness is an independent predictor of cardiovascular events in patients
with arterial hypertension. Resistant hypertension is often linked to hyperaldosteronism and …

Background Effects of short‐term interventions on large‐artery stiffness assessed by pulse
wave velocity (PWV) have mainly been explained by concomitant changes in blood …

The objective of this study was to investigate the efficacy of pulse transit time (PTT)-pulse
wave analysis (PWA) fusion in cuff-less blood pressure (BP) trend tracking based on the …

Background and aims Heated tobacco products (HTPs) are novel alternative tobacco
products being promoted as an alternative to cigarettes. To evaluate the impact of HTP use …

Diabetes mellitus accelerates vascular disease through multiple biochemical pathways
driven by hyperglycemia, with insulin resistance and/or hyperinsulinemia also contributing …

Background The availability of an accurate continuous cuffless blood pressure (BP) monitor
would provide an alternative to both invasive continuous BP and 24-h intermittent cuff-based …
