Mechanisms of Increased Vascular Stiffness Down the Aortic Tree in Aging, Pre-Menopausal Female Monkeys.

American Journal of Physiology. Heart and Circulatory Physiology, 2020
OBJECTIVE Protection against increased vascular stiffness in young women is lost after menopause. However, little is known about vascular stiffness in older, pre-menopausal females, because most of the prior work has been conducted in rodents, which live

Association of single nucleotide polymorphisms in the NRF2 promoter with vascular stiffness with aging

PLoS ONE, 2020
Purpose Pulse wave velocity (PWV), an indicator of vascular stiffness, increases with age and is increasingly recognized as an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD).

Dietary potassium regulates vascular calcification and arterial stiffness [PDF]

JCI Insight, 2017
Vascular calcification is a risk factor that predicts adverse cardiovascular complications of several diseases including atherosclerosis. Reduced dietary potassium intake has been linked to cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension and incidental stroke, although the underlying molecular mechanisms remain largely unknown.

Elevated Exercise Blood Pressure in Middle Aged Women is associated with altered Left Ventricular and Vascular Stiffness.

Journal of applied physiology, 2020
Women are at higher risk for developing heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). We examined the utility of peak exercise blood pressure (BP) in identifying pre-clinical features of HFpEF, namely vascular and cardiac stiffness in middle ...

Arterial Stiffness Assessed by Cardio-Ankle Vascular Index [PDF]

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2019
Arterial stiffness is an age-related disorder. In the medial layer of arteries, mechanical fracture due to fatigue failure for the pulsatile wall strain causes medial degeneration vascular remodeling. The alteration of extracellular matrix composition and arterial geometry result in structural arterial stiffness.

EVALUATION OF VASCULAR STIFFNESS SECONDARY TO VASCULAR CALCIFICATIONS IN AMBULATORY DIALYSIS PATIENTS

Romanian Medical Journal, 2021
Arterial stiffness provides an indirect picture of vascular calcifications in terms of the effect they have on the systemic circulation and consequently on the heart. The present study sought to demonstrate the usefulness of outpatient investigation of vascular calcifications in dialysis patients using pulse wave velocity (PWV) determination.

Arterial Stiffness and Vascular Load in Heart Failure [PDF]

Congestive Heart Failure, 2008
“Men are born soft and supple; dead, they are stiff and hard. Plants are born tender and pliant; dead, they are brittle and dry. Thus whoever is stiff and inflexible is a disciple of death. Whoever is soft and yielding is a disciple of life. The hard and stiff will be broken.

Central blood pressure and vascular stiffness in Mexican population [PDF]

Archivos de cardiolog�a de M�xico (English ed. Internet), 2020
Central blood pressure (CBP) is considered a measure of prognostic value for cardiovascular risk. In turn, the aortic pulse wave velocity (PWVAo) and augmentation index (Aix) have been related to arterial stiffness and cardiovascular risk. Controversies exist regarding the reference values in different ethnic groups, ages, and anthropometrics.

Vascular age concept: role in assessing risk and choosing therapy

Медицинский совет, 2020
The article discusses the vascular age concept and modern approaches to assessing vascular age. It describes modern methods for measuring arterial stiffness (applanation tonometry or ultrasonic Doppler examination) as the most frequently used index of ...
