Left ventricular mass and intrarenal arterial stiffness as early diagnostic markers in cardiorenal syndrome type 5 due to systemic sclerosis [PDF]

, 2016
Background: Cardiorenal syndrome type 5 (CRS-5) includes a group of conditions characterized by a simultaneous involvement of the heart and kidney in the course of a systemic disease.

Aging and Arterial Stiffness

Circulation Journal, 2010
Arterial walls stiffen with age. The most consistent and well-reported changes are luminal enlargement with wall thickening and a reduction of elastic properties at the level of large elastic arteries. Longstanding arterial pulsation in the central artery causes elastin fiber fatigue and fracture.

Arterial Stiffness in Hypertension and Function of Large Arteries [PDF]

American Journal of Hypertension, 2020
Abstract BACKGROUND Arterial stiffness—typically assessed from non-invasive measurement of pulse wave velocity along a straight portion of the vascular tree between the right common carotid and femoral arteries—is a reliable predictor of cardiovascular risk in patients with essential hypertension.

Persistent Vascular Collagen Accumulation Alters Hemodynamic Recovery from Chronic Hypoxia [PDF]

, 2012
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is caused by narrowing and stiffening of the pulmonary arteries that increase pulmonary vascular impedance (PVZ). In particular, small arteries narrow and large arteries stiffen. Large pulmonary artery (PA) stiffness

Arterial Stiffness [PDF]

, 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

The Value of Serial Measurement of Arterial Stiffness in Cardiovascular Disease

Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine
Clinically assessing arterial stiffness is valuable because it aids in predicting future cardiovascular events. There are several methods for measuring arterial stiffness, including pulse wave velocity (PWV), augmentation index, and pulse pressure ...

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 and coronary artery disease

Current Opinion in Cardiology, 2015
The current traditional risk scores are not sufficient to predict the full incidence of cardiovascular disease. In this brief review, we discuss the pathophysiological mechanisms through which arterial stiffness affects cardiac function and the additive value of markers of arterial stiffness, to detect the presence of coronary artery disease (CAD) and ...

Effects of Exercise on Arterial Stiffness: Mechanistic Insights into Peripheral, Central, and Systemic Vascular Health in Young Men

Metabolites
Background/Objectives: Arterial stiffness, a critical predictor of cardiovascular events, varies regionally across peripheral, central, and systemic arteries, necessitating targeted exercise interventions for young men.

Effects of aerobic exercise training on the arterial stiffness and intramyocellular or extramyocellular lipid in overweight and obese men

Clinical and Experimental Hypertension, 2020
Intramyocellular lipid (IMCL) and extramyocellular lipid (EMCL) of ectopic fat in muscles are associated with arterial stiffness in normal-weight individuals. Furthermore, aerobic exercise training-induced changes in IMCL or EMCL content are related to a
