Association of Parental Hypertension With Arterial Stiffness in Nonhypertensive Offspring
High arterial stiffness is increasingly conceptualized as a cause of hypertension, in addition to being a consequence of long-standing high blood pressure. For instance, recent observations from the Framingham Offspring cohort suggest that increases in blood pressure and new-onset hypertension were antedated by higher arterial stiffness. A similar relation between vascular stiffness and later-l...
متن کاملHypertension and arterial stiffness in heart transplantation patients
OBJECTIVES Post-transplantation hypertension is prevalent and is associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity and subsequent graft dysfunction. The present study aimed to identify the factors associated with arterial stiffness as measured by the ambulatory arterial stiffness index. METHODS The current study used a prospective, observational, analytical design to evaluate a group of adul...
متن کاملIncreased ambulatory arterial stiffness index is associated with target organ damage in primary hypertension.
Increased arterial stiffness has been shown to predict cardiovascular mortality in patients with primary hypertension. Asymptomatic organ damage is known to precede cardiovascular events. We investigated the relationship between a recently proposed index of stiffness derived from ambulatory blood pressure (BP) and target organ damage in 188 untreated patients with primary hypertension. Ambulato...
متن کاملActivation of SIRT1 Attenuates Klotho Deficiency-Induced Arterial Stiffness and Hypertension by Enhancing AMP-Activated Protein Kinase Activity.
Arterial stiffness is an independent risk factor for stroke and myocardial infarction. This study was designed to investigate the role of SIRT1, an important deacetylase, and its relationship with Klotho, a kidney-derived aging-suppressor protein, in the pathogenesis of arterial stiffness and hypertension. We found that the serum level of Klotho was decreased by ≈45% in patients with arterial s...
متن کاملArterial stiffening precedes systolic hypertension in diet-induced obesity.
Stiffening of conduit arteries is a risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity. Aortic wall stiffening increases pulsatile hemodynamic forces that are detrimental to the microcirculation in highly perfused organs, such as the heart, brain, and kidney. Arterial stiffness is associated with hypertension but presumed to be due to an adaptive response to increased hemodynamic load. In contrast, a rec...
متن کاملArterial Stiffness and Dialysis Calcium Concentration
Arterial stiffness is the major determinant of isolated systolic hypertension and increased pulse pressure. Aortic stiffness is also associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in patients with chronic kidney disease, hypertension, and general population. Hemodynamically, arterial stiffness results in earlier aortic pulse wave reflection leading to increased cardiac workloa...
