Elastic modulus of the radial artery wall material is not increased in patients with essential hypertension.
Hypertension is known to decrease arterial distensibility and systemic compliance. However, the arterial tree is not homogeneous, and it has been shown that the medium-size radial artery does not behave like the proximal, elastic, large, common carotid artery. Indeed, radial artery compliance in hypertensive patients (HTs) has been shown to be paradoxically increased when compared with that in ...
متن کاملSympathetic Vasomotor Response Of The Radial Artery In Patients With End Stage Renal Disease
Background: A novel way to assess the autonomic vascular functional unit of the upper extremity is the sympathetic vasomotor response of the radial artery using continuous wave Doppler ultrasonography. We used this method to determine whether such response is impaired in patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD). Methods: 43 patients with ESRD on renal replacement therapy(Ga), 48 normal heal...
متن کاملAvoidance of Dialysis in an End-Stage Renal Disease Patient Status-post Off-pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting
Certain benefits are clearly associated with the use of off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) as compared with the on-pump CABG. The superiority is more evident in patients with multiple co morbidities including renal failure.We reviewed the medical records of a 67-year-old male with a past medical history that was significant for multiple cardiovascular diseases and new-onset end-sta...
متن کاملEpidemiological Characteristics and Causes of End-stage Renal Disease in Hemodialysis Patients
Background and aims: Hemodialysis (HD) is considered as the main method of renal replacement therapy (RRT) for end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients in many countries including Iran. Given the limited number of epidemiological studies in this regard at the provincial level across the country, the present study aimed to describe the demographic and clinical characteristics of ESRD patie...
متن کاملBardet-Biedl Syndrome with End Stage Renal Disease
Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS) is one of the rare autosomal recessive disorders that affect multiple organs of the body. The signs and symptoms of this condition vary among affected individuals, even among members of the same family. We present a case of BBS with features of hypogonadism and features such as marked central obesity, retinitis pigmentosa, polydactyly, renal abnormalities and mental ...
