    • Association of long-term exposure to traffic-related air pollution with blood pressure and hypertension in an adult population-based cohort in Spain (the REGICOR study) 

      Foraster, María; Basagaña Flores, Xavier; Aguilera, Inmaculada; Rivera, Marcela; Agis Cherta, David; Bouso, Laura; Deltell, Alexandre; Marrugat, Jaume; Ramos, Rafel; Sunyer, Jordi; Vila, Joan; Elosua, Roberto; Künzli, Nino (National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, 2014-04-01)
      Article
      Accés obert
      Background: Long-term exposure to traffic-related air pollution may increase blood pressure (BP) and induce hypertension. However, evidence supporting these associations is limited, and they may be confounded by exposure ...

    • Computational modeling of hypertensive growth in the human carotid artery 

      Sáez Viñas, Pablo; Peña, Estefanía; Martínez, Miguel Ángel; Kuhl, Ellen (2014-06)
      Article
      Accés obert
      Arterial hypertension is a chronic medical condition associated with an elevated blood pressure. Chronic arterial hypertension initiates a series of events, which are known to collectively initiate arterial wall thickening. ...

    • Cost-accuracy and patient experience assessment of blood pressure monitoring methods to diagnose hypertension: a comparative effectiveness study 

      González de Paz, Luis; Kostov, Belchin Adriyanov; Freixa Macià, Xavier; Herranz Rodríguez, Carmen; Lagarda Jiménez, Elena; Ortega Carmona, María; Pérez García, Elisa; Porcar León, Sílvia; Sánchez Romero, Eva; Serrato Villa, Montserrat; Vidiella Piñol, Ingrid; Sisó Almirall, Antoni (Frontiers Media SA, 2022-11-10)
      Article
      Accés obert
      Objectives: Studies of the diagnosis of hypertension have emphasized longterm cost-effectiveness analysis, but the patient experience and costs of blood pressure monitoring methods at the diagnosis stage remain unclear. ...

    • Cross-sectional association between road traffic noise and hypertension in a population-based sample in Girona, Spain (REGICOR-AIR project) 

      Foraster, María; Basagaña Flores, Xavier; Aguilera, Inmaculada; Rivera, Marcela; Agis Cherta, David; Bouso, Laura; Deltell, Alexandre; Dratva, Julia; Juvinyà, Dolors; Sunyer, Jordi; Elosua, Roberto; Künzli, Nino (International Institute of Acoustics and Vibration, 2011)

    • Direct pulse transit time measurement from an electronic weighing scale 

      Gómez Clapers, Joan; Casanella Alonso, Ramón; Pallàs-Areny, Ramon (2016)
      Text en actes de congrés
      Accés restringit per política de l'editorial
      A novel method to measure Pulse Transit Time (PTT) from the force sensors of a modified electronic weighing scale is presented. The method relies on the relation between PTT and the interval between I and J waves of the ...

    • Disentangling the effects of traffic-related noise and air pollution on blood pressure: indoor noise levels and protections 

      Foraster, María; Basagaña Flores, Xavier; Aguilera, Inmaculada; Rivera, Marcela; Agis Cherta, David; Bouso, Laura; Deltell, Alexandre; Elosua, Roberto; Künzli, Nino (2013)
      Text en actes de congrés
      Accés obert
      Outdoor road traffic noise levels are associated with hypertension (HT). Studies on blood pressure (BP) are inconsistent and the true indoor traffic noise exposure may differ due to protections against noise. We analysed ...

    • High blood pressure and long-term exposure to indoor noise and air pollution from road traffic. 

      Foraster, María; Künzli, Nino; Aguilera, Inmaculada; Rivera, Marcela; Agis Cherta, David; Vila, Joan; Bouso, Laura; Deltell, Alexandre; Marrugat, Jaume; Ramos, Rafel; Sunyer, Jordi; Elosua, Roberto; Basagaña Flores, Xavier (National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, 2014-11-01)
      Article
      Accés obert
      Traffic noise has been associated with prevalence of hypertension, but reports are inconsistent for blood pressure (BP). To ascertain noise effects and to disentangle them from those suspected to be from traffic-related ...

    • Mathematical modeling of collagen turnover in biological tissue 

      Sáez Viñas, Pablo; Peña, Estefania; Martínez, Miguel Àngel; Kuhl, Ellen (2012)
      Article
      Accés obert
      We present a theoretical and computational model for collagen turnover in soft biological tissues. Driven by alterations in the mechanical environment, collagen fiber bundles may undergo important chronic changes, characterized ...
