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 ...

Uses of Arterial Stiffness in Clinical Practice.
Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis and Vascular Biology, 2020 As far back as the ancient Egyptians and Greeks, physicians have observed and interpreted the arterial pulse to diagnose disease. In the last 20 years, advances in modern engineering have rendered quantitative pulse wave analysis widely available ...

Arterial Stiffness and Hypertension [PDF]
Hypertension, 2014 Over the past decade, increased aortic stiffness has emerged as an important risk factor for target organ damage and cardiovascular disease events. Aortic stiffness can be assessed as pulse wave velocity (PWV), which is a measure of aortic wall stiffness, and pulse pressure (PP), which is affected by wall stiffness and the interaction between flow and ...

Magnesium and Arterial Stiffness [PDF]
Hypertension, 2006 To The Editor: We read with interest the paper by S. Laurent et al1 dealing with structural and genetic bases of arterial stiffness. The authors reviewed data concerning the heritability of arterial stiffness and propose an integrated view of the structural and genetic determinants of arterial stiffness based on a candidate gene approach and recent ...

Determinants of arterial stiffness in COPD [PDF]
BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2014 Cardiovascular morbidity and mortality is high in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and arterial stiffness is a potentially modifiable risk factor with added predictive value beyond that obtained from traditional risk factors.
