stiffness and pulse wave velocity / Aorta and carotid arteries 137 (0.94 to 1.01) p = 0.096; Obesity OR = 0.47 (0.29 to 1.77) p = 0.003 and Diabetes OR = 2.41 (1.15 -5.05) p = 0.020. Conclusions: According to the results obtained, genetic polymorphisms variables were not in the multivariate analysis equation to determine the increase of the PWV, which can be explained either by being included in the selected variables such as hypertension, or on the other hand, they may not have enough strength to remain in the equation. So, according to this study, PWV has much more to do with behaviors and traditional risk factors than the genetic heritage.P883 Endothelial dysfunction, pulse wave velocity and augmentation index are correlated in subjects with systemic arterial hypertension?
Temperature and related cecords from 28 wells in the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska (NPRA) although somewhat constrained from accuracy by data gathering methods, extrapolate to undisturbed formation temperatures at specific depths below permafrost, and lead to calculated geothermal gradients between these depths. Tabulation of the results show that extrapolated undisturbed temperatures range from a minimum of 98oF (370C) at 4,000 feet (1,220 m) to a maximum of 420OF 216OC) at 20,260 feet (6,377 m) and that geothermal ILisburne €1) and 3.1S0F/10O8 (57oC/km) between 6,830 feet to 7,940 feet (Drew oint e l). Essential information needed for extrapolations consists of: t ime-sequential "bottom-hole" temperatures during wire-1 ine logging of intermediate and deep intervals of the bore hole; the times that circulating drilling fluids had disturbed the formations; and the subsequent times that non-circulating drilling fluids had heen in contact with the formation. In several wells presumed near direct measures o f rock temperatures recordecl from formation fluids recovered by drill stem tests (DST) across thin (ap7rox. 20-20 foot) intervals are made available. gradients range from 0.3 6 OF/lOO' (6oC/km) between 4 470 feet to 7,075 feet We believe that the results approach actual values close enough to serve as approximations of the thermal regimes in appropriate future investigations. Continuous temperature logs obtained at the start and end of final logging operations, conductivity measurements, and relatively long-term measurements o f the recovery from disturbance at shallow depths io many of the wells will permit refinements o f our values and provide determination of temperatures at other depths.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
