Journal ArticleDOI
Personality Traits and Circadian Blood Pressure Patterns: A 7-Year Prospective Study
Antonio Terracciano,James B. Strait,Angelo Scuteri,Osorio Meirelles,Angelina R. Sutin,Kirill V. Tarasov,Jun Ding,Michele Marongiu,Marco Orru,Maria Grazia Pilia,Francesco Cucca,Edward G. Lakatta,David Schlessinger +12 more
TL;DR: Evidence is found that reduced nighttime blood pressure dipping is associated with antagonism and impulsivity-related traits but not with measures of emotional vulnerability, and the strongest associations were found with conscientiousness, a trait that may have a broad impact on cardiovascular health.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Action of Halo thane on Spontaneous Contractile Waves and Stimulated Contractions in Isolated Rat and Dog Heart Cells
TL;DR: The findings regarding spontaneous contractile waves indicate a direct effect of halothane at the SR in resting cells, occurring independently of any changes in the slow inward current.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of U-50,488H on the contractile response of cardiomyopathic hamster ventricular myocytes.
E. Kasper,E. Kasper,Carlo Ventura,Carlo Ventura,B.D. Ziman,B.D. Ziman,Edward G. Lakatta,Edward G. Lakatta,H. Weisman,H. Weisman,M.C. Capogrossi,M.C. Capogrossi +11 more
TL;DR: The CM hamster does not demonstrate a different contractile response to U-50,488H, and the cardiomyopathic hamster myocytes, loaded with the Ca2+ indicator indo-1, have the same contractile properties as control cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ca2+-dependent components of inactivation of unitary cardiac L-type Ca2+ channels
Ira R. Josephson,Ira R. Josephson,Antonio Guia,Edward G. Lakatta,W. Jonathan Lederer,Michael D. Stern +5 more
TL;DR: This is the first study to characterize both the unitary kinetics and the stoichiometry of CDI of LCCs with a physiological Ca2+ concentration, which may provide a basis for understanding the mechanisms regulating unitary LCC gating, which is a pivotal element in the local control of Ca2-‐dependent signalling processes.
Journal ArticleDOI
The relationship between the metabolic syndrome and arterial wall thickness: A mosaic still to be interpreted.

TL;DR: The consistent association of specific clusters of MetS components with extremely thick (older) large artery cross-culturally suggests that identification of those clusters in clinical practice will facilitate a personalized health care and a better - i.e. more healthy and cost-effective - prevention of major cardiovascular (CV) events.
