ARTSENS - An image-free system for noninvasive evaluation of arterial compliance
TL;DR: The ability of ARTSENS to detect artery anatomy and measure compliance was verified by in-vivo measurements conducted on 106 subjects, and the accuracy of compliance estimates were evaluated by comparison with a state of art imaging system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polygenic Risk, Midlife Life's Simple 7, and Lifetime Risk of Stroke
Emy Anu Thomas,Nitesh Enduru,Adrienne Tin,Eric Boerwinkle,Michael Griswold,Thomas H. Mosley,Rebecca F. Gottesman,Myriam Fornage +7 more
TL;DR: Maintaining an optimal cardiovascular health can partially offset a high genetic risk, emphasizing the importance of modifiable risk factors and illustrating the potential of personalizing genetic risk information to motivate lifestyle changes for stroke prevention.
Journal ArticleDOI

Abstract WP205: Trans-ethnic Genome-wide Association Studies Meta-analysis Of Large Brain Arterial Diameters Identifies Two Novel Genetic Loci
Minghua Liu,Farid Khasiyev,Bruce A. Wasserman,Ye Qiao,Emy Anu Thomas,Mitchell S.V. Elkind,Ralph L. Sacco,Tatjana Rundek,Giuseppe Tosto,Sanjeev Sariya,Saima Hilal,Sudha Seshadri,Jose R. Romero,Qiong Yang,Myriam Fornage,Jose A. Gutierrez +15 more
TL;DR: This study reveals two novel risk loci for large brain arterial diameters that comprise genes involved in response to magnesium transport, neuronal transmission, hypertension, mucociliary clearance and host defense and helps elucidate underlying disease mechanisms.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors measured brain arterial diameters for 13 segments and averaged them to obtain a global measure of the posterior and anterior circulations, and revealed three novel risk loci (CNNM2, NT5C2, and AS3MT) associated with global arterial diameter.
