Prognostic value of brachial artery endothelial function and wall thickness.
OBJECTIVES We sought to examine the prognostic value of brachial artery (BA) flow-mediated vasodilation (FMD) and intima-media thickness (IMT) in patients admitted for invasive evaluation of chest pain. BACKGROUND Both FMD and IMT of the BA have been associated with coronary risk factors and the presence of coronary artery disease (CAD). Recent studies on the prognostic value of FMD have been...
متن کاملbrachial endothelial function and carotid intima-media thickness in patients with coronary artery disease
endothelial dysfunction and carotid intima-media thickness are 2 indicators of subclinical cardiovascular disease. the aim of study was to analyze brachial flow mediated dilation(fmd)and carotid intima media thickness (cimt)in patients with coronary artery disease, and investigate the relationship between endothelial function, cimt and coronary artery disease risk factors.56 men and women aged ...
متن کاملComparison of the effect of continuous and interval aerobic training on brachial artery diameter and endothelial function in a patient with coronary artery bypass grafting surgery
Introduction: Cardiovascular diseases, especially coronary artery disease, is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Accordingly, the present study aimed to compare the effects of continuous and interval aerobic training on brachial artery diameter and endothelial function in coronary artery bypass graft patients. Materials and Methods: The present study encompassed 30 male patients meet...
متن کاملIntima-media thickness of brachial artery, vascular function, and cardiovascular risk factors.
OBJECTIVE Cardiovascular diseases are associated with impaired flow-mediated vasodilation (FMD) and increase in carotid intima-media thickness (IMT). Both FMD and IMT are independent predictors for cardiovascular outcomes. When measuring FMD and nitroglycerine-induced vasodilation in the brachial artery, IMT can also be simultaneously assessed in the same brachial artery. The purpose of this st...
متن کاملPrognostic value of posterior wall thickness in childhood dilated cardiomyopathy and myocarditis.
M-mode indices of left ventricular dimension and posterior wall thickness were derived from echocardiograms of children presenting with dilated cardiomyopathy/myocarditis and were related to outcome. Echocardiograms from 16 of 18 children were manually digitized to obtain changes of left ventricular dimension and posterior wall thickness throughout the cardiac cycle. Indices of ventricular func...
