13. Evaluation of the cardio-ankle vascular index in COVID-19 patients
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate the relationship and prognostic significance of cardio-ankle vascular index, which is a measure of arterial stiffness that can lead to endothelial dysfunction and poor cardiovascular issues in COVID-19 patients, with COVID-19. METHODS: The study included 115 patients, of which 65 patients in the case gro

14. Study of the interaction of concrete walls with the foundation structure
Abstract This article presents a study of the factors that influence the mechanism of soil-structure interaction with a pilot building having concrete walls and their impact on their performance. To illustrate the studies carried out, a numerical modeling of a four-floor concrete wall pilot building was performed, subjected to vertical actions, supported by

16. PARAMETERS FOR MODELING PASSIVE SUSPENSIONS OF SPRAY BARS
ABSTRACT The uniformity and quality of spraying depend on the stability of the spray boom, defined as the suspension system between the boom and the machine chassis. This paper presents a procedure for improving the performance of passive spray bar suspensions through parameter adjustment. Two multibody dynamics models of a tractor sprayer set were developed

17. Maternal Intake of Flaxseed During Lactation and Exercise Training Protect Against Salt Overload-Induced Aortic Remodeling in Adult Offspring
Abstract Background High dietary sodium intake can induce endothelial stiffness even without changes in blood pressure. Objectives To evaluate the effects of exercise training and chronic intake of sodium chloride solution on aortic morphology of male offspring of rat dams who consumed flaxseed during lactation. Methods Female rats were fed with a control

19. Study of Arterial Stiffness - Based on Scientific Evidence, What are the Current Tools for the Study of Arterial Stiffness?
Abstract Background The European Heart Surgery Risk Assessment System (EuroSCORE) and InsCor have been used to predict complications of cardiac surgery. However, their application to predict lung function and functionality is still uncertain. Objective To correlate surgical risk scales with functional independence and pulmonary function in patients under

20. Damage localization and quantification of tower structures based on the super-element method
Abstract Tower structures are sensitive to hurricanes or earthquakes, whereupon they are easily damaged due to large deflection and dynamic responses. Herein, a method is proposed to accurately identify the location and extent of damage in tower structures. Firstly, a tower structure is divided into several sections along its height, and each section is rega

22. Role of elastography strain ratio and TIRADS score in predicting malignant thyroid nodule
ABSTRACT Objective: Ultrasonography (US) is the most accurate and cost-effective imaging method in diagnosis of thyroid nodules. A practical thyroid imaging reporting and data system (TIRADS) for thyroid nodules has been proposed to classify nodules of the thyroid gland to solve the problem of nodule selection for fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC).

23. Central and peripheral blood pressures and arterial stiffness increase in hypoparathyroidism
ABSTRACT Objective The aim of the present study was to evaluate whether arterial stiffness is affected in the patients with hypoparathyroidism through pulse wave analysis (PWA). Subjects and methods Sixty-three patients diagnosed with hypoparathyroidism and sixty volunteers were evaluated for the study. When 21 patients were excluded in the hypoparathyro

24. Determinants of Arterial Stiffness and Vascular Aging in the Older Adult
Abstract Background: Arterial stiffness (AS) is recognized as an important and independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Objective: This study was aimed at identifying the main determinants of AS in the elderly. Design and Methods: This was an observational, cross-sectional study of elderly participants. Blood pressure (BP) and parameters
