Application of supervised and unsupervised learning to analysis of the arterial pressure pulse
… meta-database of pulse waveforms obtained by the SphygmoCor"Җ" device is then analysed by the unsupervised learning technique of Self Organising Maps (SOM). The map patterns indicate that the observed arterial pressures affect the wave shape in a similar way as predicted by the theoretical model. …

Impact of Prolonged Sitting on Cognitive Function: Implications for Cardio-metabolic Risk
… wave velocity—PWV) were measured using the SphygmoCor XCEL device before, during and after sitting. Body mass index, %-bodyfat, and accelerometry data were used to characterize weight and physical activity status. <strong>Results</strong>: Following sitting, there was no change in Stroop …

Association of Aortic Vascular Stiffness with Epicardial and Pericardial Adipose Tissues on 64-Multidetector Computed Tomography : In Relation with Coronary Atherosclerosis
… pulse wave velocity (PWV) was measured using SphygmoCor tonometry. EAT and total thoracic adipose tissue (TAT) volumes were measured using MDCT. PAT was calculated as TAT – EAT. The highest tertile of EAT (≥ 111 ml) and PAT (≥ 103 ml) were defined as significant adipose tissue depots. RESULTS: …

Impact of Physical Activity and Sugar Sweetened Beverage Consumption on Arterial Stiffness
… was measured via pulse wave velocity using the Sphygmocor Xcel non-invasive system. Results: No statistically significant results were found from this study (p>0.05) when examining the relationship between PWV and age, height, weight, waist-hip ratio, body fat percentage, sugarsweetened beverage …

Effects of Far Infrared Irradiation on Vascular Function in Healthy Subjects
… the augmentation index (AI@75%) using a Sphygmocor device. Blood was obtained to look at circulatory biomarkers including cytokines, adhesion molecules, and oxidative stress biomarkers. Furthermore, the expression of 9 genes regulated by the nuclear factor erythroid 2–related factor 2 …

Cardiovascular, autonomic and neuropathic physiology and their involvement in the extra-articular manifestations of hypermobility disorders
… the utility of a commercially available device (SphygmoCor, AtCor Medical) for the assessment of heart rate variability (HRV) as an indirect measure of autonomic nervous system (ANS) activity, followed by an examination of the effect of age and sex on HRV, recorded using this device in a large …
