Journal ArticleDOI
Baroreceptor reflex sensitivity is associated with arterial stiffness in a population of normotensive and hypertensive patients.
F. Michas,Efstathios Manios,Kimon Stamatelopoulos,Eleni Koroboki,Savvas Toumanidis,Ronney B. Panerai,Nikolaos Zakopoulos +6 more
TL;DR: Increased arterial stiffness is significantly and independently associated with impaired BRS in normotensive and hypertensive patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acute effects of renin-angiotensin system blockade on arterial function in hypertensive patients.
K A Aznaouridis,Kimon Stamatelopoulos,E N Karatzis,Athanassios D. Protogerou,Christos Papamichael,John Lekakis +5 more
TL;DR: The data show that acute RAS inhibition with quinapril may be more beneficial in terms of arterial function and central haemodynamics compared to captopril (25 mg) or telmisartan (80’mg).
Journal ArticleDOI
Circulating levels of TNF-like cytokine 1A correlate with the progression of atheromatous lesions in patients with rheumatoid arthritis
Giorgos Bamias,Kimon Stamatelopoulos,Evangelia Zampeli,Athanassios D. Protogerou,F. Sigala,Christos Papamichael,Panagiotis F. Christopoulos,George D. Kitas,P.P. Sfikakis +8 more
TL;DR: Dysregulation of TNF-like Cytokine 1A-induced signaling may be associated with risk for accelerated atherosclerosis in RA, and a "low TL1A/DcR3" immunophenotype predicted a preserved Atherosclerosis profile in carotid and/or femoral arteries.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recently postmenopausal women have the same prevalence of subclinical carotid atherosclerosis as age and traditional risk factor matched men.
Kimon Stamatelopoulos,Eleni Armeni,Georgios Georgiopoulos,Maria Kazani,Katerina Kyrkou,Konstantinos Stellos,Athanasios Koliviras,Andreas Alexandrou,Maria Creatsa,Christos Papamichael,Irene Lambrinoudaki +10 more
TL;DR: The prevalence and severity of carotid atherosclerosis was similar between men and young postmenopausal women matched for traditional risk factors and whether these women may be better risk stratified irrespective of gender should be further assessed in prospective studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Circulating platelet-progenitor cell coaggregate formation is increased in patients with acute coronary syndromes and augments recruitment of CD34(+) cells in the ischaemic microcirculation
Konstantinos Stellos,Boris Bigalke,Oliver Borst,Florian Pfaff,Alexandra Elskamp,Saskia Sachsenmaier,Ruben Zachmann,Kimon Stamatelopoulos,Tanja Schönberger,Tobias Geisler,Harald F. Langer,Meinrad Gawaz +11 more
TL;DR: Findings imply that circulating platelet/CD34+ cell coaggregate levels are increased in ACS, especially in STEMI, which may be a novel mechanism of domiciliation of CD34+ progenitor cells to the injured microvasculature after acute myocardial infarction.
