Abstract
Cardiovascular disease(CVD) has become a major disease burden affecting people's health in China. Blood vessels are very important for human health and are the "sentinel" for the development of many cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. The key to effectively preventing fatal, disabling heart, brain and peripheral vascular events lies in controlling traditional and non-traditional risk factors for vascular health from the source, and early assessment and intervention of early vascular lesions. Since 2004, China government promoted the early detection technology of vascular lesions and vascular medicine, and proposed the Beijing Vascular Health Stratification (BVHS) to provide suggestions for the examination, evaluation and management of risk factors, and to provide new ideas for lifelong maintenance of vascular health. This review mainly introduces the establishment and development of the clinical discipline of "vascular medicine" in the past 20 years in China, introduces the indicators for detecting vascular function and structure and the predictive value of vascular events, and carries out intelligent and digital management of vascular health throughout the life cycle of individualized prevention, treatment and rehabilitation for people with different parts or degrees of lesions, effectively reducing the occurrence and development of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and the prospect of new technology in maintaining vascular health.

Abstract
AIMS Assessing the hemodynamic changes of diabetic retinopathy (DR) using harmonic analysis of both non-invasively measured radial pulse and photoplethysmography (PPG) signals to propose a DR risk indicator. METHODS A total of 1879 patients with diabetes were followed on average of 3.5 years. The radial pulse and PPG signals were measured at the beginning of the trial. Kaplan-Meier curves of the DR risk indicator was analyzed. In addition, the correlation between the measurements of the radial pulse and PPG was evaluated. RESULTS In comparison of the patients' clinical characteristics, years of diabetes, systolic blood pressure, HbA1C, ACR, urinary albumin and fourth harmonic (C4) were higher in the DR group, and eGFR and third harmonic (C3) were lower. Patients in the high-DR risk group had a 1.8-fold higher risk of developing retinopathy than those in the low-risk group (log-rank test, p < 0.001). The correlation coefficient between radial pulse and PPG measurements for C3 and C4 were 0.727 and 0.628, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The harmonic analysis of radial pulse and PPG signals may be used to reflect the effect of DR in hemodynamics and the derived harmonic components may predict the risk of DR of patients with type 2 diabetes.

Identifying Coronary Artery Lesions by Feature Analysis of Radial Pulse Wave: A Case-Control Study. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2022; 2021:5047501. [PMID: 35005017 PMCID: PMC8739924 DOI: 10.1155/2021/5047501] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2021] [Accepted: 12/10/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Background Cardiovascular diseases have been always the most common cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Health monitoring of high-risk and suspected patients is essential. Currently, invasive coronary angiography is still the most direct and accurate method of determining the severity of coronary artery lesions, but it may not be the optimal clinical choice for suspected patients who had clinical symptoms of coronary heart disease (CHD) such as chest pain but no coronary artery lesion. Modern medical research indicates that radial pulse waves contain substantial pathophysiologic information about the cardiovascular and circulation systems; therefore, analysis of these waves could be a noninvasive technique for assessing cardiovascular disease. Objective The objective of this study was to analyze the radial pulse wave to construct models for assessing the extent of coronary artery lesions based on pulse features and investigate the latent value of noninvasive detection technology based on pulse wave in the evaluation of cardiovascular disease, so as to promote the development of wearable devices and mobile medicine. Method This study included 529 patients suspected of CHD who had undergone coronary angiography. Patients were sorted into a control group with no lesions, a 1 or 2 lesion group, and a multiple (3 or more) lesion group as determined by coronary angiography. The linear time-domain features and the nonlinear multiscale entropy features of their radial pulse wave signals were compared, and these features were used to construct models for identifying the range of coronary artery lesions using the k-nearest neighbor (KNN), decision tree (DT), and random forest (RF) machine learning algorithms. The average precision of these algorithms was then compared. Results (1) Compared with the control group, the group with 1 or 2 lesions had increases in their radial pulse wave time-domain features H2/H1, H3/H1, and W2 (P < 0.05), whereas the group with multiple lesions had decreases in MSE1, MSE2, MSE3, MSE4, and MSE5 (P < 0.05). (2) Compared with the 1 or 2 lesion group, the multiple lesion group had increases in T1/T (P < 0.05) and decreases in T and W1 (P < 0.05). (3) The RF model for identifying numbers of coronary artery lesions had a higher average precision than the models built with KNN or DT. Furthermore, average precision of the model was highest (80.98%) if both time-domain features and multiscale entropy features of radial pulse signals were used to construct the model. Conclusion Pulse wave signal can identify the range of coronary artery lesions with acceptable accuracy; this result is promising valuable for assessing the severity of coronary artery lesions. The technique could be used to development of mobile medical treatments or remote home monitoring systems for patients suspected or those at high risk of coronary atherosclerotic heart disease.

A First Step towards a Comprehensive Approach to Harmonic Analysis of Synchronous Peripheral Volume Pulses: A Proof-of-Concept Study. J Pers Med 2021; 11:jpm11121263. [PMID: 34945735 PMCID: PMC8707287 DOI: 10.3390/jpm11121263] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2021] [Revised: 11/24/2021] [Accepted: 11/25/2021] [Indexed: 11/27/2022] Open
Abstract
The harmonic analysis (HA) of arterial radial pulses in humans has been widely investigated in recent years for clinical applications of traditional Chinese medicine. This study aimed at establishing the validity of carrying out HA on synchronous peripheral volume pulses for predicting diabetes-induced subtle changes in heart energy. In this study, 141 subjects (Group 1: 63 healthy elderly subjects; Group 2: 78 diabetic subjects) were enrolled at the same hospital. After routine blood sampling, all synchronous electrocardiogram (ECG) and photoplethysmography (PPG) measurements (i.e., at the six locations) were acquired in the morning. HA of synchronous peripheral volume pulses and radial pulse waves was performed and analyzed after a short period of an ensemble averaging process based on the R-wave peak location. This study utilized HA for the peripheral volume pulses and found that the averaged total pulse energy (i.e., the C0 of the DTFS) was identical in the same subject. A logistic regression model with C0 and a waist circumference variable showed a graded association with the risk of developing type 2 diabetes. The adjusted odds ratio for C0 and the waist circumference were 0.986 (95% confidence interval: 0.977, 0.994) and 1.130 (95% confidence interval: 1.045, 1.222), respectively. C0 also showed significant negative correlations with risk factors for type 2 diabetes mellitus, including glycosylated hemoglobin and fasting plasma glucose (r = −0.438, p < 0.001; r = −0.358, p < 0.001, respectively). This study established a new application of harmonic analysis in synchronous peripheral volume pulses for clinical applications. The findings showed that the C0 could be used as a prognostic indicator of a protective factor for predicting type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
Background Women not only have worse diabetes complications, but also have menstrual cycle, pregnancy, and menopause which can make managing diabetes more difficult. The aim of this study was to investigate if radial pressure wave analysis may non-invasively screen for women’s risk of type 2 diabetes. Methods Spectrum analysis of the radial pressure wave was performed to evaluate the first five harmonic components, C1 to C5. The study consisted of a total of 808 non-pregnant female subjects aged 20–95 over the period of 4 years, and 404 of them were diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes as the case group. Result The first five harmonic components are significantly different in a comparison of the case group and the control group. In the logistic regression analysis, T2DM was found to be associated with C1 (OR = 1.055, CI = 1.037–1.074, p < 0.001), C2 (OR = 1.051, CI = 1.019–1.085, p = 0.002), and C3 (OR = 0.972, CI = 0.950–0.994, p = 0.013). In the Receiver Operating Characteristic curve analysis, the Area Under Curve of using C3 only (70%, p <0.05), weighted C1, C2 and C3, (75%, p < 0.05), and weighted C1, C2 and C3 and Body mass Index (84%, p <0.05) were tested for the accuracy on how well these tests separate the women into the groups with and without the T2DM. Conclusion We thus concluded that pulse spectrum was a non-invasive predictor for women’s risk of T2DM.

Noninvasively measured radial pressure wave analysis provides insight into cardiovascular changes during pregnancy and menopause. Taiwan J Obstet Gynecol 2021; 60:888-893.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Pregnancy and menopause are significant life events associated with major changes in female hormone levels and changes in cardiovascular health. The role of estrogen in influencing cardiovascular risk is an ongoing research topic. Many studies have provided evidence that radial pressure wave characteristics are an important indicator to consistently and independently predict cardiovascular events. The aim of this study was to investigate if radial pressure wave analysis provided statistical insights into the physiological variations due to pregnancy and menopause. Furthermore, the study investigated how these variations could serve as an indicator for cardiovascular risks. As the radial pulse measurement is non-invasive and speedy, it may be helpful in evaluating cardiovascular changes and risk during these transitions. MATERIALS AND METHOD A total of 702 randomly selected female subjects (90 pregnant and 97 post-menopausal), aged 20-59, enrolled in the study. The visit measured the subject's hemodynamic parameters including heart rate, systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP) and radial pressure waves. SBP and DBP were evaluated by an automatic blood pressure monitor. Radial pressure wave data were continuously recorded for 12-s using a TD01C pulse measuring instrument. Spectrum analysis of the radial pressure wave was performed to evaluate the first five harmonic components (C1-C5). RESULTS A comparison of pregnant women to non-pregnant women showed C3 and C5 were lower. Heart rate C2 and C4 were higher in pregnant women. A comparison of women pre-menopausal and post-menopausal showed no significant difference in SBP or DBP. Menopause significantly changed the C1 and C4 radial pressure wave harmonics. An increase in C1 and a decrease in C4 were observed. CONCLUSION AND DISCUSSION This study provided further clinical evidence to support the hemodynamic model that describes the cardiovascular changes and risks related to the harmonic components of the pulse spectrum. Beyond blood pressure, the effects of menopause on the radial pressure wave, especially on hemodynamic index C4, independent of age and BMI, may explain increased post-menopausal cardiovascular risk. This and past studies collectively suggest that radial pressure wave components may be an indicator of a female body's ability to supply oxygen and nutrients. Harmonic analysis of the radial pressure wave may provide additional insights into the underlying mechanism of the cardiovascular changes over the lifespan of a woman.

Abstract
Postprandial superior mesenteric artery (SMA) blood flow is associated with the caloric content of a meal. Whether spectral analysis of a peripheral pulse wave or heart rate can model postprandial SMA blood flow is unclear. We hypothesized that altering the caloric content of a meal would evoke dose-response increases in postprandial SMA hyperemia and distinct changes in the pulse wave harmonic spectrum and heart rate. Twenty healthy subjects (10 male, 26 ± 10 yr) completed a randomized cross-over trial, comparing three meals (280, 560, or 840 kcal) on SMA blood flow (Doppler ultrasound), heart rate, and the first to seventh harmonic amplitudes (derived from a finger pulse wave). Supine SMA diameter and blood velocity were collected at baseline and every 15 min throughout 2 h of postprandial recovery. SMA blood flow was smaller across all time points following meal 1 (280 kcal) compared with both meal 2 (560 kcal) and meal 3 (840 kcal) (all P < 0.001), while meal 2 had attenuated responses compared with meal 3 at 60, 90, 105, and 120 min postprandial (all P < 0.01). Distinct changes in heart rate and the amplitude of second to fifth harmonics were observed between meals (all P < 0.05). The changes in harmonic spectrum or heart rate explained 66-69% (adjusted r2) of the variance in postprandial SMA blood flow. These results provide proof-of-concept that easily obtained and noninvasive postprandial harmonic profiles or heart rate may be used to explain changes in SMA blood flow and exploited for the development of wearable technology to noninvasively track caloric intake.NEW & NOTEWORTHY We studied the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) blood flow responses to three meals of varying caloric value and examined whether these responses could be modeled using changes in heart rate or the peripheral pulse wave harmonic spectrum. We found that both inputs could explain 66-69% of the SMA blood flow variance over 2 h of postprandial recovery. Noninvasive methods may be able to predict SMA blood flow and thus used to measure caloric intake.

Risk assessment of macrovascular and microvascular events in patients with type 2 diabetes by analyzing the amplitude variation of the fourth harmonic component of radial pulse wave. Physiol Rep 2019; 7:e14252. [PMID: 31591828 PMCID: PMC6779930 DOI: 10.14814/phy2.14252] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/22/2019] [Revised: 09/05/2019] [Accepted: 09/08/2019] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
This investigation explored the hypothesis that whether the coefficient of variation of the fourth harmonic amplitude of the radial pulse wave (C4CV) predicts the risk of macrovascular and microvascular events in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Radial pulse wave and brachial blood pressure were measured at baseline in 2324 patients with T2DM and C4CV was calculated using the Fourier series method. Macrovascular and microvascular events during follow-up were determined by medical records. We plotted the Kaplan-Meier curve and performed a Cox proportional hazard model and a log-rank test to estimate the effectiveness of C4CV as a risk predictor. We divided patients into quartile groups based on C4CV (<4.3%, 4.3% to 6.8%, 6.8% to 11.4%, and >11.4%). Compared with patients with C4CV < 4.3%, patients with C4CV> 11.4% had a double incidence of macrovascular events (hazard ratio, 2.13; 95% CI, 1.70-2.67) and microvascular events (hazard ratio, 2.08; 95% CI, 1.67-2.58), and the incidence of cardiovascular death was three times (hazard ratio, 3.03; 95% CI, 1.10-8.83). The Cox regression analysis demonstrated that the risk of both macrovascular and microvascular outcomes increases with the increase in quartile level of C4CV value (P < 0.0001). These associations remained after adjustment for age, gender, smoking, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, dyslipidemia, diabetes duration, Hba1c, and cardiovascular disease (P < 0.0001). C4CV is a novel independent predictor of cardiovascular mortality, macrovascular events, and microvascular events in patients with T2DM.
