Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Book Chapter Description
In this chapter, we discuss how biomechanical forces influence vascular design. We will focus on the small arteries and arterioles, i.e., those vessels that together cause the majority of resistance for perfusion. We will do so because pathological alteration in the caliber of these resistance vessels, “remodeling,” is related to both hypertension and impaired local perfusion reserve and tissue ischemia. We will discuss the definitions of remodeling, its role as part of normal homeostasis, and its involvement in a range of pathologies. Subsequently, we address the evidence for the involvement of wall shear stress and wall stress under normal and pathological conditions, the need for an integrative, “systems level” understanding, and the translational perspectives of interfering with the regulation of resistance vessel structure.
