SpringerBriefs in Physiology, 2019 近年,「骨年齢」,「体力年齢」など,様々な「○○年齢」 という言葉を耳にする.これらの言葉は,健康に関連す る生理指標の加齢変化,すなわち歴年齢(実年齢)との 関係性から,それらの機能を直感的に理解しやすい「年 齢」という身近な指数に置き換え,健康維持増進を啓発 するためのツールととらえることができる.巷でよく耳 にする「血管年齢」もその一つである.著者らの知る限り, 「血管年齢」の学術的概念・定義ならびにその評価方法 についての統一見解はないが,多くの場合,動脈硬化の 関連指標を扱っていると思われる ...

Effect of a reduction in glomerular filtration rate after nephrectomy on arterial stiffness and central hemodynamics: rationale and design of the EARNEST study [PDF]
, 2014 Background: There is strong evidence of an association between chronic kidney disease (CKD) and cardiovascular disease. To date, however, proof that a reduction in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is a causative factor in cardiovascular disease is ...
