Differences in ultrasound-derived arterial wall stiffness parameters and noninvasive blood pressure between Friesian horses and Warmblood horses [PDF]
, 2020 Background: Aortic rupture is more common in Friesians compared to Warmbloods, which might be related to differences in arterial wall composition and, as such, arterial wall stiffness (AWS).

Acute changes in arterial stiffness following exercise in healthy Caucasians and South Asians
Artery Research, 2015 Background: Arterial stiffness and exercise capacity are independent predictors of cardiovascular diseases. This study aims to establish the acute changes in arterial stiffness using applanation tonometry following sub-maximal exercise in Caucasians and ...

Adipokines and Arterial Stiffness in Obesity
Medicina, 2021 Adipokines are active molecules with pleiotropic effects produced by adipose tissue and involved in obesity-related metabolic and cardiovascular diseases. Arterial stiffness, which is a consequence of arteriosclerosis, has been shown to be an independent

Alterations in vascular function in primary aldosteronism - a cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging study [PDF]
, 2014 Introduction: Excess aldosterone is associated with increased cardiovascular risk. Aldosterone has a permissive effect on vascular fibrosis. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) allows study of vascular function by measuring aortic ...

Arterial Stiffness: Different Metrics, Different Meanings [PDF]
Journal of Biomechanical Engineering, 2019 Abstract Findings from basic science and clinical studies agree that arterial stiffness is fundamental to both the mechanobiology and the biomechanics that dictate vascular health and disease. There is, therefore, an appropriately growing literature on arterial stiffness.
