TLDR
Congestive heart failure is characterized by a reduction of Dist of large-elastic and middle-sized muscular arteries that can be reversed by drugs, effectively interfering with the renin-angiotensin system either at the ACE or at the angiotensIn receptor level.About:

TL;DR: In this article, a randomized controlled trial of Aliskiren in the Prevention of Major Cardiovascular Events in Elderly people was presented. But the authors did not discuss the effect of the combination therapy in patients living with systolic hypertension.

TL;DR: Since 2003 considerable additional evidence on important issues related to diagnostic and treatment approaches to hypertension has become available and therefore updating of the previous guidelines has been found advisable.

TL;DR: The European Society of Hypertension (ESH) and the European Society Of Cardiology (ESC) as mentioned in this paper decided not to produce their own guidelines on the diagnosis and treatment of hypertension but to endorse the guidelines on hypertension issued by the World Health Organization (WHO) and International Society of hypertension (ISH)1,2 with some adaptation to reflect the situation in Europe.

Impact of Aortic Stiffness Attenuation on Survival of Patients in End-Stage Renal Failure
Alain P. Guerin,Jacques Blacher,Bruno Pannier,Sylvain J. Marchais,Michel E. Safar,Gérard M. London +5 more
TL;DR: In ESRF patients, the insensitivity of PWV to decreased BP is an independent predictor of mortality and that use of ACE inhibitors has a favorable effect on survival that is independent of BP changes.

Comparison of finger and intra-arterial blood pressure monitoring at rest and during laboratory testing.
TL;DR: Beat-to-beat blood pressure recording via FINAPRES provides an accurate estimate of means and variability of radial blood pressure in groups of subjects and represents in most cases an acceptable alternative to invasive blood pressure monitoring during laboratory studies.

The static elastic properties of 45 human thoracic and 20 abdominal aortas in vitro and the parameters of a new model
TL;DR: An arctangent model with three free parameters A(p) = Am(1/2 + tan-1 [p-p0)/p1)/pi explained over 99% of the variance in area with pressure for each aorta, and changes in compliance, characteristic impedance and propagation velocity are equally well described.

Effect of Age on Brachial Artery Wall Properties Differs From the Aorta and Is Gender Dependent: A Population Study

TL;DR: The effect of age on large-artery wall properties is not uniform but depends on gender and vascular territory, and distensibility of the aorta, an elastic artery, decreases with age.
