A phenomenological and multiscale modeling of arterial growth and remodeling under endofibrosis
High level endurance sports, like biking, may lead to a vascular pathology called endofibrosis. Its symptoms are an arterial wall thickening and a reduction of the artery lumen calibre. Cyclists are impacted in the iliac arteries due to a pinching and...

Ankle and arm pressure recordings for the diagnosis of exercise-induced arterial endofibrosis
BACKGROUND: Measurement of ankle and brachial blood pressure after maximal exercise is largely used to diagnose exercise‑induced arterial endofibrosis (EIAE). AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: We aimed to compare the different available methods and combination of...
