Arterial stiffness and coronary artery disease

open access: yesCurrent 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 ...

Physical Activity, Sedentary Behavior and Sleep Time: Association with Cardiovascular Hemodynamic Parameters, Blood Pressure and Structural and Functional Arterial Properties in Childhood

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2021
An association between movement behavior (MB) components (sleep time (ST), physical activity (PA) and sedentary behavior (SB)) and the state of the cardiovascular (CV) system in children has been postulated.

Atrophic Remodeling of the Artery-Cuffed Artery [PDF]

open access: yesArteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, 1999
Abstract —Increased arterial wall tension stimulates growth and remodeling of arteries, but little is known about the effects of decreased wall tension, despite its developmental and pathological significance. Consequently, we cuffed 1 carotid artery in rabbits with a portion of the contralateral artery to off-load ...

The arteries of the brain base in the degu (Octodon degus Molina 1782)

open access: yesVeterinární Medicína, 2014
The brain arteries derived from 50 adult degu individuals of both sexes were injected with synthetic latex introduced with a syringe into the left ventricle of the heart under constant pressure. After fixation in 5% formalin and brain preparation, it was

Physiologic Cyclical Load on Inguinal Hernia Scaffold ProFlor Turns Biological Response into Tissue Regeneration

open access: yesBiology, 2023
Surgical repair of groin protrusions is one of the most frequently performed procedures. Currently, open or laparoscopic repair of inguinal hernias with flat meshes deployed over the hernial defect is considered the gold standard.

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

open access: yesAmerican 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.

The Acute Responses of Different-sized Coronary Arteries to Testosterone [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Coronary arteries supply blood to the myocardium. The blood flow within the coronary arteries is altered by various compounds produced within the body. Sex hormones such as testosterone are known to cause the relaxation of large coronary arteries.

No evidence that severity of stroke in internal carotid occlusion is related to collateral arteries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Background/AimThe neurological effects of internal carotid artery (ICA) occlusion vary between patients. The authors investigated whether the severity of symptoms in a large group of patients with ipsilateral or/and contralateral ICA occlusion at ...
