Orthostatic blood pressure adaptations, aortic stiffness, and central hemodynamics in the general population: insights from the Malmö Offspring Study (MOS) [PDF]

, 2022
PurposeArterial stiffness is independently associated with orthostatic hypotension in older individuals. The relationship between orthostatic blood pressure adaptation and aortic stiffness has not been thoroughly examined in a younger population.

Effect of Enhanced External Counter Pulsation Treatment on Aortic Blood Pressure, Arterial Stiffness and Ejection Fraction in Patients with Coronary Artery Disease [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2016
Introduction: Enhanced External Counter Pulsation (EECP) is a non-invasive treatment option for patients with Coronary Artery Disease (CAD). The treatment has shown to augment diastolic pressure and reduce Left Ventricular (LV) after-load by reducing

Reduced Aortic Distensibility is Associated With Higher Aorto‐Carotid Wave Transmission and Central Aortic Systolic Pressure in Young Adults After Coarctation Repair

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019
Background The long‐term prognosis of patients with repaired aortic coarctation is characterized by high rates of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease related to hypertension, the basis of which remains unclear.

Central systolic blood pressure increases with aortic stiffness

Bratislava Medical Journal, 2019
Central systolic blood pressure (CSBP) is the pressure in the root of aorta, which directly influences organs such as brain, heart and kidneys and is related to organ damage. Its value increases with the aortic stiffness. The aim of this study was to analyze the relationships of CSBP to aortic stiffness parameters.Central blood pressure (BP) and ...

The impact of vascular calcification on ambulatory and central aortic blood pressure in a South African dwelling dialysis population : a clinical, radiological and pathophysiological study of vascular health in a young prevalent dialysis population in a developing country [PDF]

, 2011
Includes abstract.Includes bibliographical references.In Sub-Saharan Africa, the prevalence of vascular calcification (VC) in CKD-5D is unknown. We undertook to determine the effect of ethnicity on VC, the risk factors for VC, the utility of abdominal X ...

Blood Pressure and Cognitive Function

Psychological Science, 2013
Central (aortic) blood pressures differ from brachial pressures and may be more relevant to the study of cognitive function, given that blood is delivered to the brain through the central large arteries. Pulse-pressure amplification reflects the augmentation of blood pressure between the central and peripheral arteries, which diminishes with aging.

Estimating Central Pulse Pressure From Blood Flow by Identifying the Main Physical Determinants of Pulse Pressure Amplification

Frontiers in Physiology, 2021
Several studies suggest that central (aortic) blood pressure (cBP) is a better marker of cardiovascular disease risk than peripheral blood pressure (pBP).

Central Pressure Appraisal: Clinical Validation of a Subject-Specific Mathematical Model. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
INTRODUCTION:Current evidence suggests that aortic blood pressure has a superior prognostic value with respect to brachial pressure for cardiovascular events, but direct measurement is not feasible in daily clinical practice.

Augmentation index and central aortic blood pressure in patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms

Journal of Hypertension, 2010
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a life-threatening disease as rupture of the aneurysm is associated with high mortality. The likelihood that an AAA will rupture is particularly influenced by the diameter of the aneurysm and the rate of expansion; the reasons for fast expansion are largely unknown.

P65 GENDER DIFFERENCES OF AORTIC WAVE REFLECTION AND INFLUENCE OF MENOPAUSE ON CENTRAL BLOOD PRESSURE IN PATIENTS WITH ARTERIAL HYPERTENSION

Artery Research, 2017
Background: Evidences suggest that central hemodynamics indexes are independent predictors of future cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality. Multiple factors have been pointed to have potential influence on central aortic function: height, heart ...
