Arterial stiffness, as determined by pulse wave velocity (PWV), is a recognized marker of cardiovascular risk. Noninvasive technologies have enabled easier and more accessible assessments of PWV. The current gold standard for measuring carotid-femoral PWV (cfPWV)-a reliable indicator of arterial stiffness-utilizes applanation tonometry devices, as recommended by the Artery Society Guidelines.

In previous work we discovered that T lymphocytes play a prominent role in the rise of brain metastases of ER-negative breast cancers. In the present study we explored how T lymphocytes promote breast cancer cell penetration through the blood brain barrier (BBB). An in vitro BBB model was employed to study the effects of T lymphocytes on BBB trespassing capacity of three different breast carcinoma cell lines.
