Glycated Hemoglobin and Risk of Arterial Stiffness in a Chinese Han Population: A Longitudinal Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
Background and AimsGlycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) associates with the risk of arterial stiffness, and such association can be found between fasting blood glucose (FBG), postprandial blood glucose (PBG), triglyceride-glucose index (TyG index), and arterial ...

Arterial stiffness

open access: yesJRSM Cardiovascular Disease, 2012
Measurements of biomechanical properties of arteries have become an important surrogate outcome used in epidemiological and interventional cardiovascular research. Structural and functional differences of vessels in the arterial tree result in a dampening of pulsatility and smoothing of blood flow as it progresses to capillary level.

Association Between Arterial Stiffness and Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of mortality in the world. Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) accounts for about half of all heart failure.

Arterial Stiffness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Depression, cognitive dysfunction and dementia are among the most debilitating brain diseases in elderly people. They are associated with impaired quality of life, a reduced number of healthy life years, increased care dependency and early death. Many studies show that arterial stiffening could cause brain disorders. The first part of this dissertation

Inverse modelling of an aneurysm's stiffness using surrogate-based optimization and fluid-structure interaction simulations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Characterization of the mechanical properties of arterial tissues is highly relevant. In this work, we apply an inverse modelling approach to a model accounting for an aneurysm and the distal part of the circulation which can be modified using two ...

ARTERIAL STIFFNESS AND CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE: CAUSES AND CONSEQUENCES

open access: yesРациональная фармакотерапия в кардиологии, 2015
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with increased cardiovascular risk. CKD is characterized by accelerated aging of vessels in which the age-related arterial stiffness increase is exacerbated by a number of uremia-related processes.

Non-invasive Evaluation of Aortic Stiffness Dependence with Aortic Blood Pressure and Internal Radius by Shear Wave Elastography and Ultrafast Imaging [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Elastic properties of arteries have long been recognized as playing a major role in the cardiovascular system. However, non-invasive in vivo assessment of local arterial stiffness remains challenging and imprecise as current techniques rely on indirect ...

Adiponectin and Arterial Stiffness [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Hypertension, 2005
Adiponectin, an anti-inflammatory adipocytokine, is reduced in hypertension, diabetes, and coronary artery disease (CAD). Arterial stiffness, as aortic pulse wave velocity (PWV) in hypertension and diabetes, and as augmentation index (AIx) in CAD, is independently associated with cardiovascular mortality.

Metabolomics of Arterial Stiffness

open access: yesMetabolites, 2022
Arterial stiffness (AS) is one of the earliest detectable signs of structural and functional alterations of the vessel wall and an independent predictor of cardiovascular events and death. The emerging field of metabolomics can be utilized to detect a wide spectrum of intermediates and products of metabolism in body fluids that can be involved in the ...
