Serum 25-Hydroxyvitamin D Level Is Positively Associated with Vascular Reactivity Index in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. [PDF]

Nutrients
Circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) significantly influences endothelial function. This study assessed the correlation between serum 25(OH)D and endothelial function using the vascular reactivity index (VRI) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Fasting blood samples from 102 T2DM participants and VRI were assessed.

Pulse transit time as an index of vascular reactivity

Journal of the Pakistan Medical Association
Pulse transit time (PTT) is a non-invasive method for measuring arterial compliance and stiffness, which are excellent predictors of cardiovascular disease. This study aims to determine whether PTT can be used to precisely monitor vascular reactivity in

Insulin Resistance is Associated With Skin Microvascular Dysfunction and Reduced Circulating Endothelial Progenitor Cells in Hypertensive Patients [PDF]

The Journal of Clinical Hypertension
Microvascular dysfunction is an early manifestation of vascular damage in patients with hypertension and cardiometabolic disorders. Insulin resistance (IR) is linked closely to vascular dysfunction, and the triglyceride–glucose (TyG) index is a practical

Elevated Serum Trimethylamine N-Oxide Predicts Impaired Vascular Reactivity in Patients with Hypertension [PDF]

Diagnostics
Background/Objectives: Trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO), a gut microbiota-derived metabolite influenced by diet, has been linked to cardiovascular disease. Endothelial dysfunction, an early sign of vascular damage, is common in hypertension.

Hyperemia-Related Changes in Arterial Stiffness: Comparison between Pulse Wave Velocity and Stiffness Index in the Vascular Reactivity Assessment

International Journal of Vascular Medicine, 2012
Carotid-to-radial pulse wave velocity (PWVcr) has been proposed to evaluate endothelial function. However, the measurement of PWVcr is not without limitations. A new simple approach could have wide application.

Association of endothelial dysfunction with sarcopenia and muscle function in a relatively young cohort of kidney transplant recipients [PDF]

PeerJ, 2021
Background Sarcopenia and endothelial dysfunction are both common among kidney transplant (KT) recipients. We aimed to evaluate the association between endothelial dysfunction and sarcopenia, as well as its individual components.

Serum myostatin level is a positive predictor of endothelial function measured by digital thermal monitoring of vascular reactivity in kidney transplantation patients

Tzu Chi Medical Journal, 2022
Objectives: Myostatin is a myokine predominantly expressed and secreted in skeletal muscle in response to stimulations, including oxidative stress or inflammation.

Positive Association of Serum Adiponectin Level With the Vascular Reactivity Index in Kidney Transplant Patients

Experimental and Clinical Transplantation, 2021
Adiponectin has an important role in obesity, insulin resistance, and cardiovascular disease. We investigated the association between serum adiponectin levels and endothelial function in kidney transplant patients.Fasting blood samples were obtained from 70 kidney transplant patients.

A pragmatic approach to the pressor dose‐response as an index of vascular reactivity and adrenoceptor function in man. [PDF]

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 1987
In clinical pharmacological studies, where it is not possible to describe the full dose‐response curve, the construction of dose‐ response relationships ideally depends upon achieving a reproducible and readily measurable response for each dose administered.
