Composition and Functional Capacity of Gut Microbes are Associated with Arterial Stiffness: A Prospective Study

open access: yesCardiology Discovery, 2023
Objective:. Arterial stiffness is an important predictor of cardiovascular disease. Microbial diversity in the gut has been shown to be associated inversely with arterial stiffness in Caucasian populations.

Circulating adhesion molecules and arterial stiffness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Aim: VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 are two important members of the immunoglobulin gene superfamily of adhesion molecules, and their potential role as biomarkers of diagnosis, severity and prognosis of cardiovascular disease has been investigated in a number of ...

Arterial Stiffness [PDF]

open access: yesPulse, 2013
Stiffness of large arteries has been long recognized as a significant determinant of pulse pressure. However, it is only in recent decades, with the accumulation of longitudinal data from large and varied epidemiological studies of morbidity and mortality associated with cardiovascular disease, that it has emerged as an independent predictor of ...

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.

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 hypertension [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Hypertension, 2018
Measures of the functional and structural properties of blood vessels can be used to assess preclinical stage of vascular disorders. Recent experimental and population studies show that arterial stiffening precedes development of high blood pressure, and can be used to predict future cardiovascular events.

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.

Land Assembly for Housing Developments [PDF]

open access: yes, 1934
The ability to identify premature arterial stiffening is of considerable value in the prevention of cardiovascular diseases. The “ageing index” (AGI), which is calculated from the second derivative photoplethysmographic (SDPPG) waveform, has been used as

Long- and short-term air pollution exposure and measures of arterial stiffness in the Framingham Heart Study

open access: yesEnvironment International, 2018
Background: Studies of air pollution exposure and arterial stiffness have reported inconsistent results and large studies employing the reference standard of arterial stiffness, carotid-femoral pulse-wave velocity (CFPWV), have not been conducted.

Moderate and heavy metabolic stress interval training improve arterial stiffness and heart rate dynamics in humans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Traditional continuous aerobic exercise training attenuates age-related increases of arterial stiffness, however, training studies have not determined whether metabolic stress impacts these favourable effects.
