Abnormal peripheral endothelial dysfunction detected by flowmediated, endothelium-dependent, forearm-mediated dilatation (FMD) has been reported i...
متن کاملClinical evaluation of vasomotor system functionality in type 2 diabetic Patients

Genetic endowments involving individuals make subtle differences in physiological systems, particularly at the time of sickness. Hence, the presented study was designed to evaluate the vasomotor system in healthy people and type 2 DM cases for determining any functionality...

متن کاملPeripheral vasomotor function in cretinism.
These features of poor peripheral circulation which Lawson Wilkins (1950) emphasizes in his description of hypothyroidism in childhood are well-known physical signs and, as he says, are often of diagnostic value. They are usually included in a description of the bradycardia, hypotension and other signs of a slowly functioning cardiovascular system in textbook descriptions of the disease, and it...
متن کاملAbnormal baroreflex responses in patients with idiopathic orthostatic intolerance.
BACKGROUND Patients diagnosed with idiopathic orthostatic intolerance report symptoms of lightheadedness, fatigue, and nausea accompanied by an exaggerated tachycardia when assuming the upright posture. Often, these symptoms are present in the absence of any decrease in arterial pressure. We hypothesized that patients with idiopathic orthostatic intolerance would have impaired cardiac vagal and...
