26 Δεκ 2019 · Top, the typical nonlinear relation between luminal pressure and area in large elastic arteries, explained by the progressive shift in load bearing from elastin to collagen fibers. Data translate into distensibility and pulse wave velocity (PWV) with the use of the Bramwell-Hill relation.
4 Μαΐ 2021 · An arterial wall has both elastic and viscous characteristics, and pathological and degenerative changes in the wall tissue affect the viscoelastic behavior of the artery wall. The arterial viscoelasticity may provide useful information regarding the development and progression of arterial diseases.
In response to work performed with the hands, there is an increase of the effective inner radius of large arteries of the upper limbs, a large increase of the pulsatile blood volume increment of...
An important reason may be the plethora of methods and devices claiming to measure arterial stiffness in humans. This brief review provides a concise overview of methods in use, indicating strengths and weaknesses.
Large, elastic arteries are composed of cells and a specialized extracellular matrix that provides reversible elasticity and strength. Elastin is the matrix protein responsible for this reversible elasticity that reduces the workload on the heart and dampens pulsatile flow in distal arteries.
Elasticity in Arteries: A similar combination of rubbery and stiff materials creates common mechanical properties in blood vessels of vertebrates and some invertebrates.
1 Μαΐ 2013 · Arterial stiffness is more often performed approximately, either by measuring pulse wave velocity (PWV) [2], [3], [4], or by analysing local variations in local pressure and volume [5], [6], [7]. PWV is directly linked to Young's modulus, and therefore to the arterial wall elasticity.
