After the development of the railways, the river ceased to carry significant passenger traffic, despite periodic attempts to revive its function as a mass transit artery with hydrofoils, catamarans, and hovercraft.
It makes sense, given that Chariot is often used either for a rider's entire commute, or for the first- or last-mile of a trip to and from work, getting riders from their homes or offices to a main transit artery like Caltrain, BART or the ferry.
After the blood pulmonary artery transit time (nearly two or three heart beats) even the left ventricular preload decreases with a consequent stroke volume decrease, which is at its minimum value during end expiration.
New York City's mass transit system are the arteries that allow the city's circulatory system to function.
However, the significant difference in ATB in the cerebellar region, which is the territory of the posterior inferior cerebral artery through the vertebral artery, suggests that the transit time could be longer.
Proponents of this 'rigid-tube' model cite as evidence of the apparently short pulse transit times between cerebral arterial and venous pulse waves (Aaslid et al. 1991), that cerebral arteries possess relatively little elastin in the tunica media and adventitia (Hayashi et al. 1980; Nagasawa et al. 1979), and these arteries exhibit high resistance to axial deformation (Monson et al. 2003, 2005).
Fluorescein angiography (FA) showed slightly delayed retinal-artery-to-vein transit time of 10 s on the right eye.
CTCs are exposed to a broad range of fluid shear stresses when transiting in different vascular compartments (arteries, veins, and capillaries).
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the photoplethysmographic brachial artery pulse wave transit time and augmentation index and their changes in response to induced forearm ischemia in septic ICU patients and correlate these indices to the development of subsequent end organ damage.
It was found that with increased speed, the mean transit time (MTT) for the pulmonary arteries decreased significantly [41].
