High Blood Pressure & Cardiovascular Prevention, 2011
Current European guidelines for the management of arterial hypertension introduce the assessment of arterial stiffness by pulse wave velocity (PWV) as an index of hypertension-related cardiovascular target organ damage. An increase in arterial stiffness is related to haemodynamic modifications at the level of the aorta, leading to a rise in cardiac ...

Pharmacological Modulation of Arterial Stiffness
Drugs, 2011Arterial stiffness has emerged as an important marker of cardiovascular risk in various populations and reflects the cumulative effect of cardiovascular risk factors on large arteries, which in turn is modulated by genetic background. Arterial stiffness is determined by the composition of the arterial wall and the arrangement of these components, and ...

Genetic Determinants of Arterial Stiffness
Journal of Cardiovascular Translational Research, 2014Stiffness of large arteries (called arteriosclerosis) is an independent predictor of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Although previous studies have shown that arterial stiffness is moderately heritable, genetic factors contributing to arterial stiffness are largely unknown. In this paper, we reviewed the available literature on genetic variants

The major pathophysiologic process initiating atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease is the deficiency of arterial endothelial function. The rate of progression of cardiovascular disease is highly variable. Changes in small arterial elasticity/stiffness are the first signs of cardiovascular disease in asymptomatic subjects as an expression of ...

Arterial Stiffness and Peripheral Arterial Disease
2006Of the atherosclerotic diseases, peripheral arterial disease is the most characterized by its association with systolic hypertension, increased arterial stiffness and disturbed wave reflection. This disease raises the question to which extent sclerosis in 'atherosclerosis' is necessary per se to cause an increase in systolic blood pressure.

Since arterial stiffness assessment is not widely available, several measures have been proposed to facilitate its introduction in everyday clinical practice either through equations or by using artificial intelligence. Indeed, machine learning algorithms may improve accessibility and performance of vascular age assessment.

Animal Models of Arterial Stiffness
2006Animal models of large artery wall stiffness fall into two categories: firstly those that slowly develop multifactorial vascular dysfunction spontaneously, such as the ageing rat. The second type of model consists of those in which a specific pathology is induced by surgical, chemical, or genetic means.
