Abstract: Background The umbilical artery (UA) Doppler pulsatility index is used clinically to detect elevated feto-placental vascular resistance. However, this metric is confounded by variation in fetal cardiac function and is only moderately predictive of placental… read more here.

Abstract: Background Arterial stiffness and earlier wave reflections can increase afterload and impair cardiovascular function. Most prior studies have been performed in patients with preserved left ventricular function. We describe novel measures of pulsatile arterial hemodynamics… read more here.
