Association Between Plasma Fibulin-1 and Brachial-Ankle Pulse Wave Velocity in Arterial Stiffness
Arterial stiffness forms the basis of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and is also an independent predictor of CVD risk. Early detection and intervention of arterial stiffness are important for improving the global burden of CVD.

Aortic stiffness and central hemodynamics in treatment-naïve HIV infection: a cross-sectional study
Background Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection is associated with a greater risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). HIV infection causes a chronic inflammatory state and increases oxidative stress which can cause endothelial dysfunction and ...

Impact of Cigarette Smoking and Exercise on Arterial Stiffness: A Narrative Literature Review [PDF]
PURPOSE Smoking often causes acute and chronic cardiovascular disorders. Cigarette smoking increases oxidative stress, reduces nitric oxide bioavailability, and changes the extracellular matrix, impairing arterial stiffness.

Arterial stiffness and atrial fibrillation: A review
Arterial stiffness has been investigated as part of the physiopathology of arterial hypertension since the 1970s. Its role in increasing the “pulsatile load” imposed over the Left Ventricle (LV) has been intensely studied recently and has helped in ...
