Impaired Central Pulsatile Hemodynamics in Children and Adolescents With Marfan Syndrome
Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2017 BackgroundMarfan syndrome is characterized by aortic root dilation, beginning in childhood. Data about aortic pulsatile hemodynamics and stiffness in pediatric age are currently lacking.

Relationship of Intraocular Pressure with Central Aortic Systolic Pressure
Current Eye Research, 2015 Purpose: To examine the relationship between central aortic systolic pressure (CASP) and intraocular pressure (IOP), and to compare the strength of any association with that of peripheral blood pressure and IOP. Methods: Adults ranging in age from 40 to 80 years were consecutively recruited from the population-based Singapore Chinese Eye Study.

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.

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.
