In this work, we evaluate the accuracy of our cuffless photoplethysmography based blood pressure monitoring (PPG-BPM) algorithm. The algorithm is evaluated on an ultra low power photoplethysmography (PPG) signal acquired from the Senbiosys Ring. The study involves six male subjects wearing the ring for continuous finger PPG recordings and non-invasive brachial cuff inflated every two to ten minutes for intermittent blood pressure (BP) measurements. Each subject performs the required recordings two to three times with at least two weeks difference between any two recordings. In total, the study includes 17 recordings 2.21 ± 0.89 hours each. The PPG recordings are processed by the PPG-BPM algorithm to generate systolic BP (SBP) and diastolic BP (DBP) estimates. For the SBP, the mean difference between the cuff-based and the PPG-BPM values is -0.28 ± 7.54 mmHg. For the DBP, the mean difference between the cuff-based and the PPG-BPM values is -1.30 ± 7.18 mmHg. The results show that the accuracy of our algorithm is within the 5 ± 8 mmHg ISO/ANSI/AAMI protocol requirement.

Endothelial-specific knockout of the scramblase TMEM16F impairs in vivo clot formation.

Objective: Loss of function of the phospholipid scramblase (PLS) TMEM16F results in Scott Syndrome, a hereditary bleeding disorder generally attributed to intrinsic platelet dysfunction. The role of TMEM16F in endothelial cells, however, is not well understood. We sought to test the hypothesis that endothelial TMEM16F contributes to hemostasis by measuring bleeding time and venous clotting in endothelial-specific knockout (ECKO) mice.

: The utilization of intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) and Impella has been suggested as means of left ventricular unloading in veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) patients. This study aimed to assess the local hemodynamic alterations in VA-ECMO patients through simulation analyses. : In this study, a 0D-3D multiscale model was developed, wherein resistance conditions were employed to define the flow-pressure relationship.

Objective: To identify markers associated with pressure injury (PrI) history in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) using two approaches: skin blood flow (SBF) response toward localized heating, and serum marker for insulin resistance.
Methods: For this cross-sectional, observational study of adults with chronic traumatic SCI at T12 and above, researchers recruited two groups of participants: with history of PrI (group 1), and without history of PrI (group 2). The study protocol included obtaining fasting blood samples and measurement of SBF at bilateral heels with localized heating of 42 °C for 30 minutes from all participants.

Purpose: Early detection and management of hypertensive disorders during pregnancy and postpartum are essential. This systematic review and meta analysis aimed: (1) to examine the state of 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure (ABP) use, and (2) in a subset of studies, evaluate 24-hour ABP parameters in the prediction and identification of Hypertensive Disorders of Pregnancy (HDP).
Methods: A comprehensive literature search was conducted in March of 2022 for English language studies published after 2000.
Impact of exercise with blood flow restriction on muscle hypertrophy and performance outcomes in men and women.
PLoS One

Blood flow restriction training (BFRT) has been previously studied as an alternative form of resistance training to gain lean mass and improve performance outcomes. However, in all exercise studies of BFRT, the proportion of female participants represents only 17-29% of all research participants. This highlights a strong underrepresentation of females and the need for more knowledge on the impact of BFRT and sex differences.
