Beets, Bacteria, and Blood Flow

Editorial Beets , Bacteria , and Blood Flow

Angiogenesis and its regulation is a crucial physiological response to chronic tissue ischemia causing increased microvessel growth along with collateral arteriolar remodeling to restore blood flow to deprived tissues.1 Vascular occlusion, as seen in coronary and peripheral artery disease, often progresses to chronic tissue ischemia without effective vascular remodeling responses.2 Thus, therap...

Aortic Stiffening, Aortic Blood Flow Reversal, and Renal Blood Flow.

N ormal arterial aging is characterized by arterial enlargement , wall thickening, and stiffening, which predominates at large arteries. 1 Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have an early vascular aging, 2 characterized by an accelerated arterial enlargement and stiffening, which occurs in parallel with the decline in glomerular filtration rate (GFR). 3 The relationships between central...
