Quantification of wave reflection in the human aorta from pressure alone - A proof of principle (2006)

Westerhof, B.E., Guelen, I, Westerhof, N., Karemaker, J.M., Avolio, A.

Wave reflections affect the proximal aortic pressure and flow waves and play a role in systolic hypertension. A measure of wave reflection, receiving much attention, is the augmentation index (AI),...

Time course analysis of baroreflex sensitivity during postural stress (2006)

Westerhof, B.E., Gisolf, J, Karemaker, J.M., Wesseling, K.H., Secher, N.H., Lieshout, J.J. Van

Postural stress requires immediate autonomic nervous action to maintain blood pressure. We determined time-domain cardiac baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) and time delay (tau) between systolic blood...

Abnormal arterial flows by a distributed model of the fetal circulation (2006)

Wijngaard, J.P.H.M. Van Den, Westerhof, B.E., Faber, D.J., Ramsay, M.M., Westerhof, N., Gemert, M.J.C. Van

Modeling the propagation of blood pressure and flow along the fetoplacental arterial tree may improve interpretation of abnormal flow velocity waveforms in fetuses. The current models, however,...

Changes in finger-aorta pressure transfer function during and after exercise (2006)

Stok, W.J., Westerhof, B.E., Karemaker, J.M.

Changes in finger-aorta pressure transfer function during and after exercise. J Appl Physiol 101: 1207-1214, 2006. First published June 1, 2006; doi:10.1152/japplphysiol.00876.2005.-Noninvasive...

Aortic pressure–area relation in Marfan patients with and without β blocking agents: a new non-invasive approach

Nollen, G J, Westerhof, B E, Groenink, M, Osnabrugge, A, Van Der Wall, E E, Mulder, B J M

Objective: To investigate the heterogeneous response to β blockade in patients with Marfan syndrome by non-invasive assessment of the aortic pressure–area curve.
