Serum Malondialdehyde-Modified Low-Density Lipoprotein Level May Be a Biomarker Associated with Aortic Stiffness Among Patients Undergoing Peritoneal Dialysis [PDF]
Background: Serum malondialdehyde-oxidized low-density lipoprotein (MDA-oxLDL) is associated with atherosclerosis and increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD).

Ivabradine on aortic stiffness in patients with heart failure
PubMed ID: 25706659Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of ivabradine treatment on aortic stiffness by measuring aortic elastic parameters in patients with heart failure (HF) receiving ivabradine treatment.

Three-dimensional assessment of ascending aortic stiffness, motion, and growth in ascending thoracic aortic aneurysm. [PDF]
AIMS: Aortic wall stiffening in ascending thoracic aortic aneurysm (aTAA) is common. However, the spatial and temporal relationships between stiffness, aortic size, and growth in aTAA remain unclear.

Carotid and Aortic Stiffness [PDF]
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 ...

Background: Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is associated with progressive aortic dilation. Studies in aortopathies have shown a correlation between increased aortic stiffness and aortic dilation.

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.

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.
