Unravelling the impact of active and passive contributors to arterial stiffness in male mice and their role in vascular aging

Scientific Reports
Arterial stiffness, a key indicator of vascular health, encompassing active (vascular tone) and passive (extracellular matrix) components. This study aims to address how these different components affect arterial stiffness along the aorta and the ...

P151 ARTERIAL STIFFNESS RESPONSE TO ACUTE AEROBIC AND RESISTANCE EXERCISE IN OLDER PATIENTS WITH CORONARY ARTERY DISEASE

Artery Research, 2018
Introduction: Arterial stiffness is associated with coronary artery disease (CAD). Acute aerobic exercise decreases arterial stiffness, while acute resistance exercise increases arterial stiffness.

Interrelations Between Arterial Stiffness, Target Organ Damage, and Cardiovascular Disease Outcomes

Journal of the American Heart Association : Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019
Background Excess transmission of pressure pulsatility caused by increased arterial stiffness may incur microcirculatory damage in end organs (target organ damage [TOD]) and, in turn, elevate risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD) events.

Arterial Stiffness and Incident Diabetes

Pulse, 2023
Diabetes may induce multiple organ damage; therefore, early detection of individuals at high-risk of incident diabetes is important for timely risk assessment and intervention. Arterial stiffness (AS) occurs as a result of functional and structural changes in the arterial wall.

A Bio‐Inspired Perspective on Materials Sustainability

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This perspective discusses natural materials as inspiration for sustainable engineering designs and the processing of materials. First, circularity, longevity, parsimony, and activity are presented as essential material paradigms. The perspective then uses many examples of natural and technical materials to introduce principles such as oligo ...

Gut microbial diversity is associated with lower arterial stiffness in women

European Heart Journal, 2018
Aims The gut microbiome influences metabolic syndrome (MetS) and inflammation and is therapeutically modifiable. Arterial stiffness is poorly correlated with most traditional risk factors.
