Decreased Aortic Elasticity in Noncompaction Cardiomyopathy Compared to Dilated Cardiomyopathy

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease
Abnormal aortic elasticity serves as a marker for cardiovascular mortality and has a negative impact on the left ventricular (LV) afterload. Noncompaction cardiomyopathy (NCCM) is characterized by hypertrabeculation of the LV endomyocardial wall, with an

Aortic stiffness index and diurnal variability (dipper/non-dipper) in hypertensive patients Aortic stiffness and hypertension

open access: yes, 2018
Aim: Aortic stiffness is an independent predictor of primary coronary events in hypertensive patients. In this study, we aimed to evaluate how aortic elasticity parameters [aortic distensibility (AD), aortic stiffness index (ASI), aortic strain (AS)] is ...
