Caffeine increases aortic stiffness in hypertensive patients [PDF]
American Journal of Hypertension, 2002 Caffeine is the most widely used pharmacologic substance. Aortic stiffness is an important factor for cardiovascular system performance and a prognosticator of cardiovascular risk. We investigated the effect of caffeine on aortic stiffness in treated hypertensive patients.We studied the effect of caffeine (250 mg) in 12 treated hypertensive patients ...
