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.

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.

Vasomotor reactivity measurement using Breath Holding Index to objectively diagnose migraine in Indonesia [PDF]

Romanian Journal of Neurology, 2023
Objective. Migraine is currently diagnosed using the subjective fulfilment of the International Headache Society (IHS) criteria. Considering the pathophysiology of endothelial dysfunction in migraine, this study aimed to utilize the breath holding index

The association of nadir CD4-T cell count and endothelial dysfunction in a healthy HIV cohort without major cardiovascular risk factors

SAGE Open Medicine, 2020
Objectives: HIV-infected population may have increased risk of cardiovascular disease. The prevalence of traditional cardiovascular disease risk factors such as hypertension, diabetes and dyslipidemia in HIV-infected individuals has made it difficult to ...

Application of a novel index for understanding vascular health following pharmacological intervention in a pre-clinical model of metabolic disease

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
While a thorough understanding of microvascular function in health and how it becomes compromised with progression of disease risk is critical for developing effective therapeutic interventions, our ability to accurately assess the beneficial impact of ...

MO150: Serum Angiopoietin-Like Protein 3 Level is Negatively Associated with Vascular Reactivity Index by Digital Thermal Monitoring in Chronic Haemodialysis Patients

Nephrology Dialysis Transplantation, 2022
Abstract BACKGROUND AND AIMS Angiopoietin-like protein 3 (ANGPTL3) plays important roles in lipid and lipoprotein trafficking and metabolism and has demonstrated a positive correlation with cardiovascular risk assessment parameters of carotid and femoral artery intima-media thickness. We evaluated the

Vascular function and cardiovascular risk factors in women with severe flushing [PDF]

, 2010
Background: Seventy per cent of postmenopausal women suffer from hot flushes causing significant morbidity in 25%. Oestrogen replacement provides symptom relief, but its use has declined following safety issues and there is, as yet, no good alternative ...

Moderate Champagne consumption promotes an acute improvement in acute endothelial-independent vascular function in healthy human volunteers [PDF]

, 2009
Epidemiological studies have suggested an inverse correlation between red wine consumption and the incidence of CVD. However, Champagne wine has not been fully investigated for its cardioprotective potential. In order to assess whether acute and moderate

Association between Serum Adipocyte Fatty Acid Binding Protein Level and Endothelial Dysfunction in Chronic Hemodialysis Patients

Life, 2022
Adipocyte fatty acid binding protein (A-FABP) is associated with atherosclerosis, and endothelial dysfunction is one of the reasons for adverse cardiovascular outcomes in patients undergoing hemodialysis (HD).
