If this state, which does not normally occur, is within the range that the body can tolerate, remodeling into buffer system blood vessels will occur as the body's protective/adaptive response to this. However, as mentioned earlier, beyond the range of appropriate protective/adaptive reactions, pathological biological reactions occur. When the inner diameter of the vein expands by 10% to 20% from the natural state, the degree of expansion is relatively small, and the vessel cover 10 controls the expansion of the vein to 20% with a sufficient margin.

That is, the 20% elastic index of the vascular covering 10 can be an indicator of the prerequisites for good modeling, since good modeling requires the absence of pathological reactions to occur, but it does not provide positive buffering. As an index of the effect, it is conceivable to consider the 50% elastic index as well.
