Non-invasive measurements of arterial structure and function: repeatability, interrelationships and trial sample size.

TL;DR: Under controlled experimental conditions there was good repeatability of measurements of indices between sessions of both intrinsic and functional arterial mechanical properties (central and carotid arterial compliance, intima-media thickness and brachial flow-mediated dilation).
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of Blood Pressure, Smoking, and Their Interaction on Carotid Artery Structure and Function

TL;DR: In conclusion, carotid artery wall remodeling appears to follow Laplace’s law but is insufficient to prevent an increase in circumferential stress in hypertensive subjects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Age-Related Deterioration in Arterial Structure and Function in Postmenopausal Women Impact of Hormone Replacement Therapy

TL;DR: A protective effect of long-term estrogen therapy on age-related changes in arterial structure and function in postmenopausal women was evident in smokers and nonsmokers alike and appeared to counteract the effects of estrogen on carotid compliance only.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of oestrogen and progesterone on age‐related changes in arteries of postmenopausal women

TL;DR: Carotid artery intima‐medial thickness (IMT) and indices of systemic and carotid arterial compliance were measured in groups of older men, postmenopausal women not on HRT (non‐HRT) and those women on long‐term HRT with oestrogen alone (HRT‐E) or oestrogens plus progestin (H RT‐EP).
