U.S., Oct. 4 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07205003) titled 'Evaluation of the Link Between Carotid Arterial Wall Viscosity and Major Neurocognitive Disorders' on Sept. 24.
Brief Summary: The mechanical behavior of conductance arteries is viscoelastic. While the elastic component has been extensively studied, the viscous component has often been neglected for methodological reasons and also because it was considered weak.
Unlike a purely elastic solid, which exhibits instantaneous deformation/relaxation upon application/discontinuation of a force, a viscoelastic solid is characterized, from a mechanical point of view, by a delay between the application or discontinuation of the force and defo...
