Changes in arterial stiffness and wave reflection with advancing age in healthy men and women: the Framingham Heart Study.
With advancing age, arterial stiffness and wave reflections increase and elevate systolic and pulse pressures. An elevated central pulse pressure is generally ascribed to increased wave reflection and portends an unfavorable prognosis. Using arterial tonometry, we evaluated central (carotid-femoral) and peripheral (carotid-brachial) pulse wave velocity, amplitudes of forward and reflected press...
متن کاملHeart rate and arterial stiffness.
In their recent study, Ozdogru et al. [1] concluded that the pulse wave velocity was impaired and was improved after successful percutaneous balloon valvuloplasty in patients with mitral stenosis, which reveal that mitral stenosis is a factor related to impaired arterial stiffness. However, there is an uncertainty in interpreting the results of this study. Both structural and functional changes...
متن کاملHeart rate dependency of pulse pressure amplification and arterial stiffness.
BACKGROUND Pulse pressure and aortic pulse wave velocity, measures of arterial stiffness, are both important determinants of cardiovascular risk. However, assessment of peripheral pulse pressure does not always provide a reliable measure of changes in central pulse pressure or arterial stiffness. The aim of the present study was to assess the effect of acute changes in heart rate on arterial st...

متن کاملArterial Stiffness and Risk of Coronary Heart Disease and Stroke
Background—Arterial stiffness has been associated with the risk of cardiovascular disease in selected groups of patients. We evaluated whether arterial stiffness is a predictor of coronary heart disease and stroke in a population-based study among apparently healthy subjects. Methods and Results—The present study included 2835 subjects participating in the third examination phase of the Rotterd...
متن کاملMarkers of arterial stiffness in a sample of Lebanese subjects with Grade I essential hypertension
OBJECTIVES Arterial stiffness is becoming a major global condition associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular problems and death. Several markers have been linked to arterial stiffness. METHODS To determine and evaluate these relations, anthropometric parameters (weight, height, and pulse rate), biochemical profile, and central and peripheral indices of arterial function were measure...
