Elevated Indoxyl Sulfate Levels Correlate with Increased Aortic Stiffness in Patients Undergoing Kidney Transplantation [PDF]

Toxins
Although kidney transplantation (KT) restores renal function, residual uremic toxins, such as indoxyl sulfate (IS), may persist and contribute to vascular remodeling and aging.

Aortic stiffness in hidradenitis suppurativa: A case-control study

Dermatologica Sinica, 2021
Background: Although increased aortic stiffness has been observed in chronic inflammatory skin diseases, it has not been examined in patients with hidradenitis suppurativa (HS).

Chronic Nicotine Exposure Induces Murine Aortic Remodeling and Stiffness Segmentation—Implications for Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Susceptibility

Frontiers in Physiology, 2018
Aim: Arterial stiffness is a significant risk factor for many cardiovascular diseases, including abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). Nicotine, the major active ingredient of e-cigarettes and tobacco smoke, induces acute vasomotor effects that may ...

Carotid Artery and Aortic Stiffness Evaluation in Aortic Stenosis [PDF]

Journal of the American Society of Echocardiography, 2014
In aortic stenosis (AS), the combination of risk factors can progressively lead to an increased arterial rigidity, which can be evaluated by the carotid artery and aortic stiffness (β index). The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between carotid and aortic β index, left ventricular (LV) function, plasma brain natriuretic peptide ...

Aortic Stiffness and Alzheimer's Disease: The Medin Connection. [PDF]

Biomolecules
Aging is associated with aortic stiffening (AoSt), a condition characterized by diminished aortic elasticity that predisposes individuals to cognitive decline, including Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Emerging evidence implicates medin, which is derived from milk fat globule-EGF factor 8 protein (MFG-E8), as a key link between AoSt and AD.

Echocardiographic evaluation of Takayasu arteritis including speckled tracking echocardiography and aortic stiffness [PDF]

Indian Heart Journal
Introduction: Despite the burden of Takayasu's arteritis (TA) in India, data on LA, LV and RV strain and aortic stiffness is scanty. Aims: We assessed these in 100 TA patients (mean age 29.8 years, 70 % females) and correlated with disease activity and ...

Serum Malondialdehyde-Modified Low-Density Lipoprotein Level May Be a Biomarker Associated with Aortic Stiffness Among Patients Undergoing Peritoneal Dialysis [PDF]

Life
Background: Serum malondialdehyde-oxidized low-density lipoprotein (MDA-oxLDL) is associated with atherosclerosis and increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD).

Carotid and Aortic Stiffness [PDF]

Hypertension, 2006
Several studies have shown that aortic stiffness was an independent predictor for cardiovascular events. However, data are less consistent concerning carotid stiffness. We analyzed the determinants of the discrepancies between aortic and carotid stiffness in different populations with contrasting cardiovascular risk factors: 94 healthy ...
