Biological Pathways in Adolescent Aortic Stiffness [PDF]
Background Aortic stiffening begins in youth and antedates future hypertension. In adults, excess weight, systemic inflammation, dyslipidemia, insulin resistance, neurohormonal activation, and altered adipokines are implicated in the pathogenesis of increased aortic stiffness.

Psychological Wellbeing and Aortic Stiffness [PDF]
This study investigated 2 distinct aspects of positive wellbeing: affective wellbeing and eudaimonia with progression of aortic stiffness, an index of subclinical cardiovascular disease. A total of 4754 participants (mean age 65.3 years, 3466 men, and 1288 women) from the Whitehall II cohort study provided data on affective and eudaimonic wellbeing ...

The dismal combination of hypertension and chronic kidney disease potentiates both cardiovascular disease and loss of renal function. Research points to the importance of arterial and left ventricular stiffening in this process but few studies have compared aspects of central and peripheral hemodynamics in relation to renal function in hypertension.We ...

Aortic stiffness in degenerative aortic stenosis
Aortic stenosis (AS) is one of the most common cardiovascular diseases. The prevalence of AS and vascular stiffness are significantly associated with age. Elevated arterial stiffness is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular events. The pathogenetic and clinical relationship of degenerative AS and aortic stiffness is poorly known.

Left atrial mechanics and aortic stiffness following high intensity interval training: a randomised controlled study [PDF]
Purpose: High intensity interval training (HIIT) has been shown to improve important health parameters, including aerobic capacity, blood pressure, cardiac autonomic modulation and left ventricular (LV) mechanics. However, adaptations in left atrial (LA)

Arterial stiffness in aortic stenosis - complex clinical and prognostic implications
Arterial stiffness and degenerative aortic stenosis (AoS) are frequently associated leading to a combined valvular and vascular load imposed on the left ventricle (LV).

Background: Interrelationship of arterial stiffness with diastolic impairments of left ventricle (LV) in healthy population has been reported in several studies; however, to the best of our knowledge, no study till date has evaluated the relationship of ...
