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
Left Ventricular Concentric Geometry During Treatment Adversely Affects Cardiovascular Prognosis in Hypertensive Patients
Maria Lorenza Muiesan,Massimo Salvetti,Cristina Monteduro,B. Bonzi,Anna Paini,Sara Viola,P. Poisa,Damiano Rizzoni,Maurizio Castellano,Enrico Agabiti-Rosei +9 more
TL;DR: Left ventricular (LV) mass and geometry predict risk for cardiovascular events in hypertension and regression of LV hypertrophy (LVH) may imply an important prognostic significance in hypertensive patients with and without LVH.
Journal ArticleDOI
Carotid and Aortic Stiffness: Determinants of Discrepancies
Anna Paini,Pierre Boutouyrie,David Calvet,Anne-Isabelle Tropeano,Brigitte Laloux,Stéphane Laurent +5 more
TL;DR: AlthoughCarotid-femoral pulse wave velocity and carotid stiffness provided similar information on the impact of aging on large artery stiffness in normal subjects, this was not the case for high blood pressure and/or diabetes.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Sex- and/or ethnic-appropriate echocardiographic reference values are indicated for many measurements of LA and LV size, LV mass, and EF, and Reference values for LV volumes and mass also differ across the age range.
Journal Article
Inappropriate Left Ventricular Mass in Patients With Primary Aldosteronism. Commentary
Javier Díez,Maria Lorenza Muiesan,Massimo Salvetti,Anna Paini,Claudia Agabiti-Rosei,Cristina Monteduro,Gloria Galbassini,Eugenia Belotti,Carlo Aggiusti,Damiano Rizzoni,Maurizio Castellano,Enrico Agabiti-Rosei +11 more
TL;DR: In patients with PA, the prevalence of inappropriate LVM is increased, even in the absence of traditionally defined left ventricular hypertrophy, and the increase in aldosterone levels could contribute to the increase of LV mass exceeding the amount needed to compensate hemodynamic load.
