Abstract

Mechanical characteristics of circulation and vasculature, such as blood flow in combination with geometrical features, participate in the generation of several pathophysiological processes, such as development of blood vessel structure, chronic vessel tone regulation, atherosclerosis and others. We aim to briefly describe the basic mechanical and haemodynamic phenomena related to the forces applied to arterial walls, especially shear stresses and the shear-induced physiologic and pathophysiologic processes focusing on those related to atherosclerotic disease.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
