The research Architecture and Birth highlights birth centres emergence in France in 2020 as a non medicalised alternative to tensioned maternity hospitals. They must be adjacent to a hospital, and pose the challenge of designing a non-hospital space within ...
2023Contributions of vascular tone and structure to elastic properties of a medium-sized artery
Isobaric compliance and distensibility of the radial artery were recently reported to be normal or slightly increased in untreated hypertensive patients. However, these findings provide no information on the intrinsic mechanical properties of the wall mate ...
1996Simultaneous ipsilateral and contralateral measurements of vasomotion in conduit arteries of human upper limbs
Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Jean-Jacques Meister
We investigated the patterns of vasomotion in various conduit arteries of the human arm. The internal diameter of the brachial, radial, ulnar, and digital artery was measured noninvasively in 17 healthy volunteers (aged 24-40 yr), using a high-precision ul ...
American Physiological Society1995Spontaneous diameter oscillations of the radial artery in humans
In this study we investigated whether there exists a periodic contractile activity of the radial artery, and we evaluated the impact of such an oscillatory behavior on the mechanical properties of this medium-sized muscular vessel. The internal diameter of ...
