Arterial stiffness: a new surrogate end point for cardiovascular disease?

TL;DR: Carotid stiffness was predictive of CV events in a small number of patients with ESRD or following renal transplantation, but had no independent predictive value in a larger number of Patients with manifest arterial disease or in the healthy elderly patients of the Rotterdam study.
Journal ArticleDOI

Central Pulse Pressure Is a Major Determinant of Ascending Aorta Dilation in Marfan Syndrome

TL;DR: In patients with MFS, local PP, estimated from carotid PP, was a major determinant of ascending aorta diameter, whereas brachial PP was not, and increased arterial stiffness was confined to the aortA.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stroke mortality and trends from 1990 to 2006 in 39 countries from Europe and Central Asia: implications for control of high blood pressure.

TL;DR: The authors have entered a period of rapidly increasing international inequality in stroke risk, where countries with low adult mortality in the latter 20th century extended their downward trend and countries with moderate as well as high mortality have on average seen unprecedented increases in death rates from stroke.
Journal ArticleDOI

Common Carotid Artery Stiffness and Patterns of Left Ventricular Hypertrophy in Hypertensive Patients

TL;DR: It is suggested that a reduction in distensibility paralleled cardiac concentric hypertrophy and remodeling, whereas an increase in arterial volume paralleled increased left ventricular cavity size.
Journal ArticleDOI

Early vascular ageing in translation: from laboratory investigations to clinical applications in cardiovascular prevention.

TL;DR: An update is given on EVA and how the concept can be used in clinical practice, a condition that could increase cardiovascular risk and is associated with various degrees of cognitive dysfunction, as well as other features of biological ageing.
