19. AORTIC DISTENSIBILITY IS MORE CLOSELY ASSOCIATED WITH CAROTID INTIMA MEDIA THICKNESS THAN AORTIC INTIMA-MEDIA THICKNESS IN THE PATIENTS WITH ISCHEMIC STROKE

open access: yesArtery Research, 2009
Background: The aorta plays a central role for a modulator in whole cardiovascular system by its elasticity. If the elasticity was decreased, aortic distensibility was also decreased and stiffness index was elevated.

Modelling Modifiable Predictors of Age-Related Cognitive Decline: Exercise, Aortic Stiffness, and the Importance of Physical Fitness

open access: yesJournal of Alzheimer's Disease Reports, 2020
Background: Previous modelling found that fitness and aortic stiffness both independently predicted spatial working memory (SWM) performance in older people.

Premature aortic stiffness in systemic lupus erythematosus by transesophageal echocardiography

open access: yes, 2010
To assess aortic stiffness by transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) and to determine its clinical predictors and relation to age, blood pressure, renal function, and atherosclerosis, 50 patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), 94% women, with ...

Loss of POGLUT2/3‐mediated O‐glucosylation produces lung and aortic phenotypes reminiscent of fibrillin1 mutants

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Fibrillins provide a scaffold for elastic fiber formation, which enables lung recoil and aortic compliance. Abnormal fibrillin microfibrils, as in Marfan syndrome, lead to enlarged alveoli, vascular stiffening, and aneurysms. Our earlier studies suggested that fibrillin function depends on O‐glucosylation of its epidermal growth ...

Aortic propagation velocity does not correlate with classical aortic stiffness parameters in healthy individuals

open access: yes, 2017
Objective: Aortic stiffness is an important cardiovascular risk marker, which can be determined using different noninvasive techniques. Aortic propagation velocity (APV) has recently been established as a novel echocardiographic parameter of aortic ...

Systemic aging fuels heart failure: Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic avenues

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1059-1080, April 2025.
Abstract Systemic aging influences various physiological processes and contributes to structural and functional decline in cardiac tissue. These alterations include an increased incidence of left ventricular hypertrophy, a decline in left ventricular diastolic function, left atrial dilation, atrial fibrillation, myocardial fibrosis and cardiac ...

Long Chain Omega-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids Improve Vascular Stiffness in Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm: A Randomized Controlled Trial

open access: yes, 2020
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a vascular disease involving permanent focal dilation of the abdominal aorta (≥30 mm) that can lead to catastrophic rupture. Destructive remodeling of aortic connective tissue in AAA contributes to wall stiffening, a

Multivariate linear regression to predict association of non‐invasive arterial stiffness with cardiovascular events

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1141-1150, April 2025.
Abstract Background Arterial stiffness is a crucial factor in determining an increase in systolic blood pressure and pulse pressure and can also predict the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD). The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between arterial stiffness and future CVD.
