Aortic stiffness in lone atrial fibrillation: a novel risk factor for arrhythmia recurrence. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
BackgroundRecent community-based research has linked aortic stiffness to the development of atrial fibrillation. We posit that aortic stiffness contributes to adverse atrial remodeling leading to the persistence of atrial fibrillation following catheter ...

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 Aortic Pressure Influences Pulse Wave Velocity [PDF]

Hypertension, 2002
To the Editor: The study reported by Lantelme and colleagues1 suggests that increasing heart rate is independently associated with higher aortic pulse wave velocity (PWV). We are concerned that the authors of this study have neither addressed the impact of central aortic pressure changes on PWV nor the presence of potential bias in their study.
