Total arterial compliance, estimated by a novel method, is better related to left ventricular mass compared to aortic pulse wave velocity: The SAFAR study

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos

Aim: The investigation of the association between total arterial compliance (C-T)-estimated by a novel technique-with left ventricular mass (LVM) and hypertrophy (LVH). Our hypothesis was that C-T may be better related to LVM compared to the gold-standard ...

Background and aims Reducing the diastolic blood pressure (DBP) below a certain threshold may lead to inadequate organ perfusion. This raises some concerns, because pharmacotherapy reduces both systolic and diastolic pressure. We aimed to investigate wheth ...

Methods for reliable estimation of pulse transit time and blood pressure variations using smartphone sensors

David Atienza Alonso, Francisco Javier Rincon Vallejos, Srinivasan Murali, Alair Dias Junior

Hypertension is known to affect around one third of adults globally and early diagnosis is essential to reduce the effects of this affliction. Today’s Blood Pressure (BP) monitoring cuffs are obtrusive and in- convenient for performing regular measurements ...

Contribution of the Arterial System and the Heart to Blood Pressure during Normal Aging - A Simulation Study

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Elira Maksuti, Nico Westerhof

During aging, systolic blood pressure continuously increases over time, whereas diastolic pressure first increases and then slightly decreases after middle age. These pressure changes are usually explained by changes of the arterial system alone (increase ...

Estimation of Blood Pressure and Pulse Transit Time Using Your Smartphone

David Atienza Alonso, Francisco Javier Rincon Vallejos, Srinivasan Murali, Alair Dias Junior

It is widely recognized today that there is an alarming rise of lifestyle-induced chronic diseases (e.g., type II diabetes) in our society. Therefore, a strong need exists for cost-effective and non-invasive devices that can measure blood pressure (BP) to ...
