Orthostatic hypotension (OH) is strongly age-dependent, with a prevalence ranging from 5%
to 11% in middle age to 30% or higher in the elderly. It is also closely associated with other …

We present a global, closed‐loop, multiscale mathematical model for the human circulation
including the arterial system, the venous system, the heart, the pulmonary circulation and the …

The Circle of Willis (CoW) describes the arterial system in the human brain enabling the
neurovascular blood supply. Neurovascular diseases like intracranial aneurysms (IAs) can …

Endurance exercise induces cardiovascular adaptations; the athletic phenotypes of the
heart and arteries are well characterized, but few studies have investigated the effects of …

Immobility plus preexisting chronic disease or acute trauma can activate the coagulation
system, thus increasing the risk for thromboembolic events. The effects of long‐term bed …

Introduction Future planetary habitats will be hypobaric and hypoxic to reduce the risk of
decompression sickness during preparation for extra-vehicular activities. This study was part …

Recent studies are reviewed, concerning the in vivo wall stiffness of arteries and arterioles in
healthy humans, and how these properties adapt to iterative increments or sustained …

During the reambulation procedure after 35-day head-down tilt bed rest (HDTBR) for 9 men,
we recorded for the first time heart rate (HR; with electrocardiogram) and arterial pressure …

Objective The aim was to investigate whether repeated exposures to moderate pressure
elevations in the blood vessels of the arms (pressure training) affect pressure distension in …

Three-dimensional simulations of peripheral, deep venous flow during muscular exercise in
limbs of healthy subjects and in those with venous dysfunction were carried out by a …
