Impact of kidney transplantation on aortic stiffness and aortic stiffness index β0

Journal of Hypertension, 2019
In chronic kidney disease, the enhanced aortic stiffness increases risk of cardiovascular events. Kidney transplantation (KTx) may improve aortic stiffness; however, it is unclear whether the improvement of aortic stiffness is merely the outcome of the reduction of blood pressure (BP) post-KTx.

Therapeutic Modulation of Aortic Stiffness

American Journal of Therapeutics, 2016
Aortic stiffness (AS) is an important predictor of cardiovascular morbidity in humans. The present review discusses the possible pathophysiological mechanisms of AS and focuses on a survey of different therapeutic modalities for decreasing AS. The influence of several nonpharmacological interventions is described: decrease body weight, diet, aerobic ...

Aortic stiffness as a cardiovascular risk predictor

BMJ, 2015
A promising biomarker likely to be most useful in younger adults with low to moderate risk Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of death worldwide, despite highly effective preventive treatments. Most current guidelines recommend treatment based on arbitrary thresholds or the risk of a future event. Although the guidelines are effective at

Aortic stiffness in patients with wilson's disease

Nigerian Journal of Clinical Practice, 2019
Wilson's disease (WD) presents with different phenotypes. Neurologic and liver involvement in WD are well documented. Few reports demonstrated cardiac and vascular involvement. Several studies showed an association between serum copper levels and atherosclerosis.

Assessment of Aortic Stiffness by Transesophageal Echocardiography

Echocardiography, 2014
BackgroundAortic stiffness, often measured by the carotid/femoral pulse‐wave velocity (PWV) method, has become an attractive predictor for cardiovascular (CV) risk. Although noninvasive, PWV requires additional equipment and training. Aortic diameters measured at transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) provide high spatial resolution images as an ...

Stiffness of the aortic wall in hypercholesterolemic children

Metabolism, 1999
Arterial stiffness may be an indicator of early vascular changes signaling the development of vascular disease, while hypercholesterolemia is a well-recognized promoter of atherogenesis. It has been shown that hypercholesterolemic children have a thicker intima-media in the carotid artery than children with normal cholesterol. The aim of this study was
