Association of fitness with vascular intima-media thickness and elasticity in adolescence.
OBJECTIVES Vascular intima-media thickness (IMT) and elasticity are surrogate markers of atherosclerosis. Data on the effect of cardiorespiratory fitness on these measures of vascular health in adolescence are scarce. The aim was to examine the association of fitness with aortic and carotid artery IMT and elasticity in adolescents. METHODS Aortic (n = 449) and carotid (n = 467) IMT and elasti...
متن کاملStructural and Histochemical Alterations in the Aortic Valves of Elderly Patients: A Comparative Study of Aortic Stenosis, Aortic Regurgitation, and Normal Valves
The aim of this study was to reveal the pathogenesis of aortic stenosis (AS) and regurgitation (AR) by comparing differences in mechanical and biochemical alterations. We applied scanning acoustic microscopy (SAM) to measure the speed of sound (SOS) through valves to estimate the elasticity and monitor sensitivity to protease treatment, as the SOS is correlated with the stiffness of materials, ...
متن کاملAortic elastic properties in patients with bicuspid aortic valve.
e read with great interest the report by Siu and Silversides (1) nd we congratulate the investigators on their intriguing review. n this study, the authors tried to summarize available inforation on pathology, genetics, and clinical aspects of bicuspid ortic valve (BAV) disease. However, due to recent publications n aortic elasticity alterations in BAV disease, we believe that a ew additional c...
متن کاملAortic elasticity and size in bicuspid aortic valve syndrome.
AIMS To investigate the relation between aortic elastic properties and size in bicuspid aortic valves (BAVs). METHODS AND RESULTS 127 BAV outpatients (121 males; age 23 +/- 10 years) with no or mild valvular impairment, were recruited with 114 control subjects comparable for age, gender, and body size. Aortic distensibility (DIS) and stiffness index (SI) were derived by M-mode evaluation of t...
متن کاملAssociations of aortic distensibility and arterial elasticity with long-term visit-to-visit blood pressure variability: the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA).
BACKGROUND Although higher visit-to-visit variability (VVV) of blood pressure (BP) is associated with increased cardiovascular disease risk, the physiological basis for VVV of BP is incompletely understood. METHODS We examined the associations of aortic distensibility (assessed by magnetic resonance imaging) and artery elasticity indices (determined by radial artery pulse contour analysis) wi...
