Effect of smoking on arterial stiffness and pulse pressure amplification.
The brachial artery pressure waveform is abnormal in smokers, but the effect of smoking on the aortic pressure waveform in both smokers and nonsmokers, particularly in the younger population, is unknown. We compared the acute and chronic effects of smoking on large-artery properties in 185 healthy young smokers and nonsmokers (mean+/-SD, 22+/-5 years). We matched 41 chronic smokers for age, hei...
متن کاملSmoking state determined by cotinine and arterial stiffness.
BACKGROUND Exposure to active and passive smoking is associated with arterial stiffness and cotinine is an objective biochemical indicator to classify smoking state. The aim of the study was to survey participant smoking condition with cotinine in North China and discuss its destructive effect on arterial stiffness. METHODS AND RESULTS Nine hundred and six people were recruited in this study ...
متن کاملChronic smoking and its effect on arterial stiffness.
AIMS The goal of this study was to investigate the effect of chronic smoking on arterial stiffness at a peripheral site using pulse wave analysis. METHODS Forty two non-smokers (17 males, 25 females) of average age 20.2 +/- 1.3 year and forty five smokers (19 males, 26 females) of average age 24.3 +/- 2.4 year were included in the study. Four parameters, SI (stiffness index), RI (reflection i...
متن کاملImpact of smoking and smoking cessation on arterial stiffness and aortic wave reflection in hypertension.
Cigarette smoking is an important modifiable cardiovascular risk factor and pathophysiological mechanisms may include a stiff vascular tree. Although smokers have stiffer arteries, whether smoking cessation is associated with reduced arterial stiffness is not known. We compared never-treated patients with essential hypertension (n=554) aged 18 to 80 years (56% females) classified as current smo...
متن کاملArterial Stiffness and Arterial Aging
The process of population ageing that is occurring in developed societies represents a major challenge for the health system. Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are the most common cause of morbidity and mortality in the world, representing half of the deaths in people over 65 years old. Among the CVD, systemic arterial hypertension is related to more than half of those outcomes [1]. The non-modifia...
