Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of Aortic Stiffness on Survival in End-Stage Renal Disease
Jacques Blacher,Alain P. Guerin,Bruno Pannier,Sylvain J. Marchais,Michel E. Safar,Gérard M. London +5 more
TL;DR: These results provide the first direct evidence that in patients with ESRD, increased aortic stiffness determined by measurement of aorta pulse-wave velocity is a strong independent predictor of all-cause and mainly cardiovascular mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI
Arterial media calcification in end-stage renal disease: impact on all-cause and cardiovascular mortality
Gérard M. London,Alain P. Guerin,Sylvain J. Marchais,Fabien Metivier,Bruno Pannier,Hasan Adda +5 more
TL;DR: AMC is a strong prognostic marker of all-cause and CV mortality in HD patients, independently of classical atherogenic factors and the principal effect of AMC on arterial function is increased arterial stiffness.
Journal ArticleDOI
Determinants of pulse wave velocity in healthy people and in the presence of cardiovascular risk factors: 'establishing normal and reference values'.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors established reference and normal values for Carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (PWV), a direct measure of aortic stiffness, based on a large European population.
Journal ArticleDOI
Arterial calcifications, arterial stiffness, and cardiovascular risk in end-stage renal disease.
TL;DR: The results of this study showed that the presence and extent of vascular calcifications were strong predictors of cardiovascular and all-cause mortality and carotid incremental elastic modulus gave additional predictive value.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of Aortic Stiffness Attenuation on Survival of Patients in End-Stage Renal Failure
Alain P. Guerin,Jacques Blacher,Bruno Pannier,Sylvain J. Marchais,Michel E. Safar,Gérard M. London +5 more
TL;DR: In ESRF patients, the insensitivity of PWV to decreased BP is an independent predictor of mortality and that use of ACE inhibitors has a favorable effect on survival that is independent of BP changes.
