| Abstract | [Purpose] Brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (BaPWV), which has been reported as anindex of arterial stiffness, is very closely related to cardiovascular risk factors. Ahigh BaPWV indicates high cardiovascular risk. However, BaPWV and pressure waveforms afterstroke are not fully understood. [Methods] BaPWV was measured in thirty-two subjects(twenty-two healthy volunteers and ten stroke patients) while they were in the supineposition. It was measured in their bilateral upper and lower extremities. [Results] BaPWVwas significantly increased in the stroke group compared with the healthy volunteers. Itwas also significantly increased on both the affected and non-affected sides of strokepatients in the stroke group. Furthermore, analysis of the pressure waveforms showed thatthe peak pressure was significantly increased in the stroke group compared with thecontrol group. The peak pressure on both the affected and non-affected sides was alsosignificantly greater than in the control group. However, the rise and decay times weresignificantly decreased in the stroke group compared with the control group. The rise anddecay time on both the affected and non-affected sides were also significantly moredecreased than in the control group. [Conclusion] The results demonstrated that increasedBaPWV and changed pulse waves are closely associated with the pathologic states ofhemiplegic stroke patients. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
