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 ...

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.

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

AMBULATORY ARTERIAL STIFFNESS INDEX AS A MARKER OF ARTERIAL STIFFNESS
2010Objective: Increased arterial stiffness (AS) has been shown to predict cardiovascular mortality in patients with essential hypertension (EH). Ambulatory arterial stiffness index (AASI) was proposed as a surrogate measurement method for determination of AS. Although, some authors showed prognostic value of AASI, this is still a controversial issue.

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.
