Arterial stiffness and vascular aging: mechanisms, prevention, and therapy [PDF]

Signal Transduction and Targeted Therapy
Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The central underlying mechanisms of cardiovascular diseases are vascular aging and associated arterial stiffness. Arterial stiffness is characterized by structural (e.g.,

Association Between Plasma Fibulin-1 and Brachial-Ankle Pulse Wave Velocity in Arterial Stiffness

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
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

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2020
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]

운동과학, 2023
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.

Central and local arterial stiffness in White Europeans compared to age-, sex-, and BMI-matched South Asians

PLoS ONE, 2023
Background Ethnicity impacts cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk, and South Asians demonstrate a higher risk than White Europeans. Arterial stiffness is known to contribute to CVD, and differences in arterial stiffness between ethnicities could explain the
