Aortic stiffness in children of parents with hypertension [PDF]

Journal of Human Hypertension, 2006
Impaired aortic stiffness has been hypothesized to be the common underlying factor leading to development of hypertension. 1,2 We hypothesized that children of parents with hypertension would have greater aortic stiffness compared with children of parents without hypertension.

Serum resistin as an independent marker of aortic stiffness in patients with coronary artery disease.

PLoS ONE, 2017
BackgroundSubjects with higher carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV) will be at an increased risk for cardiovascular (CV) events in future. Resistin is an inflammatory mediator and a biomarker of CV diseases.

Joint Stiffness Identification of a Heavy Kuka Robot with a Low-cost Clamped End-effector Procedure [PDF]

, 2014
This paper proposes two new methods for the identification of static stiffnesses of multi degrees of freedom heavy industrial robots. They are based on a locked link joint procedure obtained with an end-effector fixed to the environment. The first method

Plasma Metabolome Predicts Aortic Stiffness and Future Risk of Coronary Artery Disease and Mortality After 23 Years of Follow‐Up in the General Population

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background Increased aortic stiffness (arteriosclerosis) is associated with early vascular aging independent of age and sex. The underlying mechanisms of early vascular aging remain largely unexplored in the general population.

P3.18 COMPARISON OF STRUCTURAL AND FUNCTIONAL CAROTID AND AORTIC CHANGES IN DIABETES MELLITUS AND HYPERTENSION

Artery Research, 2015
Background: It is known that age, blood pressure and diabetes mellitus are determinants of arterial stiffness. There are no studies comparing impact of hypertension and diabetes on structural and functional carotid and aortic changes.

Aortic stiffness: an age-related prognostic marker?

Journal of Hypertension
Aortic stiffness, a consequence of vascular aging, is an independent predictor of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. However, the impact of age and sex on its predictive performance remains unclear. We have included 6046 individuals from the population-based Rotterdam study. Survival analyses were performed to investigate

Aortic stiffness in aortic valve stenosis: reply [PDF]

European Journal of Echocardiography, 2011
We appreciate the interest of Nemes and Forster in our article1 and we would like to warmly thank them. The main purpose of our study was to assess the relationship between aortic stiffness, left ventricular (LV) function, and BNP release in a series of patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) and preserved LV ejection fraction. A normal control group

Transcatheter versus surgical aortic-valve replacement in high-risk patients. [PDF]

, 2011
BACKGROUND: The use of transcatheter aortic-valve replacement has been shown to reduce mortality among high-risk patients with aortic stenosis who are not candidates for surgical replacement.

Cholesterol Efflux: Does It Contribute to Aortic Stiffening?

Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2018
Aortic stiffness during cardiac contraction is defined by the rigidity of the aorta and the elastic resistance to deformation. Recent studies suggest that aortic stiffness may be associated with changes in cholesterol efflux in endothelial cells.
