Aging, habitual exercise, and dynamic arterial compliance.
BACKGROUND A reduction in compliance of the large-sized cardiothoracic (central) arteries is an independent risk factor for the development of cardiovascular disease with advancing age. METHODS AND RESULTS We determined the role of habitual exercise on the age-related decrease in central arterial compliance by using both cross-sectional and interventional approaches. First, we studied 151 hea...
متن کاملHabitual exercise and arterial aging.
Aging affects the function and structure of arteries and increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). In healthy sedentary adults, aging is associated with increased stiffness (reduced compliance) of large elastic arteries; impaired vascular endothelial function, including reductions in endothelium-dependent dilation (EDD), release of tissue-type plasminogen activator (fibrinolytic capa...
متن کاملCentral arterial compliance is associated with age- and habitual exercise-related differences in cardiovagal baroreflex sensitivity.
Background- Cardiovagal baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) declines with age but is favorably modulated by habitual aerobic exercise. We tested the hypothesis that compliance (transducing capacity) of an elastic artery in which baroreceptors are located is associated with these age-exercise interactions. Methods and Results- Nine young (28+/-1 years old) and 9 older (65+/-1) sedentary and 10 young (2...
متن کاملAge-related abnormalities in arterial compliance identified by pressure pulse contour analysis: aging and arterial compliance.
The objective of this study was to evaluate age-related changes in pulsatile arterial function. Aging alters arterial pulsatile function and produces consistent changes in the pressure pulse contour. A reduced systemic arterial compliance that can be derived from analysis of the pulse contour is regarded as the best clinical index of impaired pulsatile arterial function and may mark the presenc...
متن کاملEffect of exercise on arterial compliance.
In an era of molecular biology, “gene therapy,” and increasingly sophisticated technological approaches to treat cardiovascular disease, it is easy to overlook the physical forces generated by and acting on the human cardiovascular system. In this issue of Circulation, Tanaka and colleagues1 report that aerobic exercise training can blunt the age-associated stiffening of large blood vessels in ...
