Glycated Hemoglobin and Risk of Arterial Stiffness in a Chinese Han Population: A Longitudinal Study
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 evaluation in HIV-positive patients: a multicenter matched control study. [PDF]
: OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this article is to assess the differences, if any, in the values of carotid artery stiffness parameters between HIV-infected subjects without known cardiovascular disease (CVD) or carotid artery plaques and HIV-uninfected ...

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. A loss of arterial

Arterial Stiffness Gradient [PDF]
<b><i>Background:</i></b> Aortic stiffness is a strong predictor of cardiovascular mortality in various clinical conditions. The aim of this review is to focus on the arterial stiffness gradient, to discuss the integrated role of medium-sized muscular conduit arteries in the regulation of pulsatile pressure and organ perfusion ...

Carotid stiffness and physical activity in elderly : a short report of the SAPALDIA 3 cohort study [PDF]
Regular physical activity has been shown to reduce cardiovascular disease risk in the general population. While smaller studies in specified groups (highly trained versus untrained individuals) indicate a certain dose-dependent effect of physical ...

ARTERIAL STIFFNESS AND CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE: CAUSES AND CONSEQUENCES
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.

Association Between Arterial Stiffness and Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction
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.

Pulse wave analysis in normal pregnancy: a prospective longitudinal study. [PDF]
Outside pregnancy, arterial pulse wave analysis provides valuable information in hypertension and vascular disease. Studies in pregnancy using this technique show that vascular stiffness is raised in women with established pre-eclampsia.
