Vascular Smooth Muscle Remodeling in Conductive and Resistance Arteries in Hypertension.
Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis and Vascular Biology, 2018 Cardiovascular disease is a leading cause of death worldwide and accounts for >17.3 million deaths per year, with an estimated increase in incidence to 23.6 million by 2030. 1 Cardiovascular death represents 31% of all global deaths 2 -with stroke, heart

Natriuretic peptides and cardiovascular damage in the metabolic syndrome. Molecular mechanisms and clinical implications [PDF]
, 2010 Natriuretic peptides are endogenous antagonists of vasoconstrictor and salt- and water-retaining systems in the body's defence against blood pressure elevation and plasma volume expansion, through direct vasodilator, diuretic and natriuretic properties ...

Smooth Muscle Ion Channels and Regulation of Vascular Tone in Resistance Arteries and Arterioles.
Comprehensive Physiology, 2017 Vascular tone of resistance arteries and arterioles determines peripheral vascular resistance, contributing to the regulation of blood pressure and blood flow to, and within the body's tissues and organs.

Microvascular alterations in hypertension and vascular aging [PDF]
, 2017 Hypertension and aging are characterized by vascular remodelling and stiffness as well as endothelial dysfunction. Endothelial function declines with age, since aging is associated with senescence of the endothelium due to increased rate of apoptosis and

Mild Hypobaric Hypoxia Enhances Post-exercise Vascular Responses in Young Male Runners
Frontiers in Physiology, 2019 It has been reported that sustained post-exercise vasodilation may be linked to exercise-induced angiogenesis. The present study aimed to evaluate whether mild hypobaric hypoxia enhances the post-exercise reduction in systemic vascular resistance in ...

Effects of the heart contractility and its vascular load on the heart rate in athlets [PDF]
Компьютерные исследования и моделирование, 2017 Heart rate (HR) is the most affordable indicator for measuring. In order to control the individual response to physical exercises of different load types heart rate is measured when the athletes perform different types of muscular work (strength machines,

METOCLOPRAMIDE AND RENAL VASCULAR RESISTANCE
British Journal of Anaesthesia, 1991 We have studied the effect of i.v. metoclopramide on renal vascular resistance in nine healthy volunteers. Peak systolic and end-diastolic frequencies were measured using duplex Doppler ultrasound of a renal interlobar artery, before and after the administration of i.v. metoclopramide 10 mg, and the resistance index derived.
