Abstract
Purpose
To provide a comprehensive assessment of aortic stiffness, through both local and regional distensibility and pulse wave velocity (PWV), in patients with either a tricuspid (TAV) or bicuspid (BAV) aortic valve and/or aortic dilation using MRI.

Methods
We included 18 patients with TAV and dilated ascending aorta (DTAV, 65 ± 14 years, 11 males), 19 patients with a non-stenotic BAV without severe regurgitation (55 ± 15 years, 17 males), both paired for age, gender and pressures to control groups. All subjects underwent thoracic aortic axial 2D+t and sagittal 3D+t velocity-encoded MRI and carotid applanation tonometry. Local ascending (AA) and descending (DA) aortic distensibility as well as aortic arch PWV were automatically measured from 2D+t data [1], while regional AA and DA PWV were calculated from 3D+t data [2].

Results
As expected, both DTAV and BAV groups showed significantly increased maximal aortic diameters when compared to their respective control group: 47 ± 5 vs 31 ± 3 mm and 44 ± 4 vs 31 ± 4 mm, respectively (p < 0.001). However, no significant changes were found in local and regional aortic stiffness indices between both patient groups and their matched controls (p ≥ 0.05).

Conclusion
2D or 3D data-derived distensibility or PWV concomitantly and unexpectedly indicate that aortic stiffness was unchanged in patients with aortopathy when compared to matched healthy controls. Since fundamental laminal flow conditions and elastic properties driving Moens-Korteweg models are not reached in highly dilated aortas, the associated turbulent flow, local flow disorganization, changes in derived pressure gradients and flow-wall forces might be more suitable for an early discrimination of patients with valve/aneurismal disease.

Abstract
Background
Arterial stiffness is a significant cardiovascular risk factor. Carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV) is the standard for measuring arterial stiffness, but indices such as central augmentation index (cAIx) and carotid artery elasticity (cE[p]) also correlate to arterial stiffness. Early-life determinants of arterial stiffening are not well understood. We assessed the relationship between population-indexed anthropometric and hemodynamic parameters, and arterial stiffness in healthy children.

Methods
97 healthy children between 2 to 20 years old were recruited. Z-scores for height, BMI, and brachial systolic (bSBP) and diastolic (bDBP) blood pressure were calculated [1,2]. cfPWV and central arterial waveforms were measured using the Sphygmocor XCEL and CvMS devices (AtCor, Sydney) respectively. Carotid artery maximum and minimum diameters were measured by high-resolution ultrasonography. cfPWV, cE[p], and cAIx were calculated.

Results
In bivariate analysis, cfPWV was associated with age (b = 0.52, p < 0.01) and bSBP z-score (b = 0.24, p = 0.03). These associations were independent of sex, height z-score, BMI z-score, and bDBP z-score in a multivariable model (R2 = 0.23). cE[p] was significantly associated with age (b = 0.42, p < 0.01), bSBP z-score (b = 0.45, p < 0.01), and height z-score (b = -0.33, p = 0.01), but only bSBP z-score remained statistically significant in the multivariable model (b = 0.45, p < 0.01; R2 = 0.20). cAIx was not associated with anthropometric or hemodynamic z-scores.

Conclusion
cfPWV is associated with age and bSBP z-score, while cE[p] is associated with bSBP z-score only, suggesting a potentially key association between systolic blood pressure and indices of arterial stiffness independent of age and other parameters of growth during healthy early life.

Published: February 2024

AbstractExtracellular and biochemical changes in the vessel contribute to the stiffening, this process is determinant for the increase of the Pulse Wave Velocity (PWV) and subsequent increase of the central and brachial arterial pressures [1,2]. These vascular alterations are denominated of TOD (target organ damage) and represent a point of association between cardiovascular risk factors and cardiovascular events [2,3]. Chronic low-grade inflammation associated with endothelial dysfunction and increased number of biomarkers, such as ultra-sensitive C-reactive protein (hsCRP), cytokines such as interleukins, fibrinogen, platelets, leukocytes and hematocrit [4,5,6].
Methods
A cross-sectional exploratory study on a representative population of a community in Salvador-Bahia-Brazil. The data came from a including 301 individuals. 150 were initially assessed from December 2016 to May 2019. PWV measurement for the carotid-femoral by an ATCor SphygmoCor, data not demonstrated in this poster. Blood samples were collected to biochemistry analysis, ADVIA1800® (SiemensHealthcare Japan/Canada). The committee for research on human was done.

Results
The data show a predominance of women (65%). Changes in leukocytes, platelets and hematocrit were more prevalent in men, as observed in Table 1. Mean values of changes in ultra-sensitive CRP values were higher in women (0.43) than in men (0, 25).

Conclusion
Studies correlate the markers evaluated in this study as positive predictive factors for arterial stiffening. Data from the literature show these preliminary changes present in the male population, as observed in our population. The cytokines IL-1, 6 and 18, the chemokines MCP-1 and 3 and the adhesion molecules VCAM, ICAM are being evaluated to better respond to these findings.

Abstract
Introduction
Both Type II Diabetes mellitus (DM) and hypertension have been associated with an increased risk for cardiovascular disease and linked to impairments in micro- and macrocirculation. However, previous studies examining micro-and macrocirculation in DM mainly include patients with comorbid hypertension. Therefore, the aim of the study was to compare hemodynamic and vascular indices in DM and non-DM patients, independently of their hypertension status.

Materials and Methods
Fifty-seven DM patients and 79 non-DM participants were enrolled. Participants underwent physical examination, ambulatory BP monitoring and estimation of pulse wave velocity (PWV) and intima-media thickness (IMT). Resting hemodynamic parameters were assessed by impedance cardiography. Participants also performed a 3-min-submaximal isometric handgrip (30% MVC) with continuous beat-by-beat BP/HR assessment (Finapress). The double product (DP = systolic blood pressure* heart rate) during HG was calculated, as an index of myocardial stress.

Results
No differences were observed in age, BMI, and resting BP among groups. Patients with DM had significantly higher PWV and IMT (p < 0.01) but lower velocity (VI) and acceleration index (ACI) compared to non-DM individuals (p < 0.05). Hypertensives had significantly higher myocardial stress during exercise compared to normotensives, independently of the presence of diabetes.

Conclusion
Despite similar blood pressure levels in DM and non-DM groups, the DM patients had higher PWV and IMT than non-DM participants. There were no differences between patients with isolated adequately controlled DM or isolated hypertension in macrocirculation indices, suggesting a possible equal impact of the above diseases on the macrovascular network.

In Search of Present Time. Which Role Can It Play for Aristotle?
Authors: Mesch Walter 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
In his theory of time Aristotle does not often mention the present time and nowhere gives a detailed account of it. Nonetheless, present time plays an important role in his conception. I primarily argue for the following claims: (1) According to Aristotle there is a perception of motion and there is a perception of time. These combined perceptions can neither occur in the past nor in the future nor in an indivisible now. Thus, there must be a present time. (2) Aristotle acknowledges the passage of time. This passage of time can only be understood as a passing present. And since an indivisible now cannot pass, the passage of time delivers a further argument for the basic assumption of a present time. – For the most part I simply follow Aristotle’s argument in Physics IV 10 and 11. In doing so, I distinguish present time and now in the introductory puzzles, investigate the passing present in the co-perception of change and time, discuss the relation between change and the passage of time as well as the relation between the passing present and the different nows.
Aristotle’s “Now” and the Definition of Time: Method and Exegesis in Simplicius’ Interpretation of Physics IV.10
Authors: Seissl Thomas 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
Physics IV.10 (217b30–218a30) is pivotal in Aristotle’s discussion of time, preceding his own account from IV.11 onward. Aristotle presents three puzzles about the existence of time with reference to the “Now”. Modern interpretations often view this section as an aporetic prelude with Aristotle’s failure to provide explicit solutions. This paper examines Simplicius’ alternative interpretation, which draws upon the theory of proof and the syllogistic model from the Posterior Analytics. Simplicius contends that the arguments’ failure lies in their inability to fit within the suitable syllogistic framework to establish a demonstrable definition of time, not in their aporetic nature. Every science has to prove the relation between (i) establishing whether X exists and (ii) showing what X is by establishing what the cause of X is. In evaluating Simplicius’ interpretation, this paper addresses two key aspects of the exegesis of IV.10: firstly, Simplicius can show why the “Now” is not part of the definition of time, and secondly, the ancient commentator underscores the close connection between the arguments in Physics IV.10 and the broader context of Aristotle’s discussion of time. Modern interpreters fail to address both of these issues.

ENHANCING ENTERPRISE MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS THROUGH CONFLICT MANAGEMENT TECHNOLOGIES
Authors: LEPEYKО Tetyana , LOHINOVA Kateryna , OMAROV Elvin 
Published: February 2024

Modern communication, both at the level of society and an enterprise, is accompanied by conflicts. The nature of conflict is the incompatibility of the goals of one entity with the goals of another entity, which is a natural inherent feature of human relations. The way a person reacts to a conflict determines the negative or positive outcomes of any conflict. For this reason, it is business leaders who have the opportunity to resolve conflicts with the most significant positive effect if they have complete information about the nature of conflicts, their sources, ways of responding to them, and resolving them. Conflict presents challenges but also presents rich opportunities for improved relationships and problem-solving. Skillful management of conflicts is an invaluable skill for everyone in leadership positions.
For this reason, the study proposes to evaluate and consider the importance of communication with five conflict management styles in an organization according to the TKI model (Thomas Kilman Model). The research emphasizes the need for effective communication skills in managerial situations to resolve conflicts and optimize work. The research was based on a survey of twenty-two employees and managers with long-time experience in different organizations who have had their share of conflict and have a grasp on managing conflicts. The results of the investigation demonstrate that out of the five proposed conflict resolution styles according to the TKI model, the most significant number of respondents lean towards the collaborative style (working towards a goal), which is appropriate in conflict management, and that for collaboration to be practical, the need for fast and effective communication is critical. However, some organizations may focus less on conflict, which can have negative consequences and affect the morale of all stakeholders, including employees and employers. Based on the survey, the TKI model is the optimal conflict management approach. Consequently, developing practical communication skills is crucial for managers, administrators, and stakeholders to manage conflicts and enhance productivity.
Note on the limit property of triangular norms1

Published: February 2024

In this article, we characterize triangular norms that have not the limit property, which are applied for exploring the characterizations of function f : [0, 1] → [0, 1] with f ( x ) = lim n → ∞ x T ( n ) for a triangular norm T when the function f is continuous. In particular, we prove that a continuous t-norm T satisfies that f (x) >0 for all x ∈ (0, 1) if and only if 0 is an accumulation point of its non-trivial idempotent elements, and the function f is continuous on [0,1] if and only if T = T M .
