Arterial and cardiac aging: major shareholders in cardiovascular disease enterprises: Part I: aging arteries: a "set up" for vascular disease.
The Demographic Imperative and the Risk of Vascular Diseases in Older Persons Our population is aging; in the United States today there are 35 million people 65 years of age or older. That number will double by the year 2030 (Figure 1). Although epidemiological studies have discovered that lipid levels, diabetes, sedentary lifestyle, and genetic factors are risk factors for coronary disease, hy...
متن کاملArterial and cardiac aging: major shareholders in cardiovascular disease enterprises: Part III: cellular and molecular clues to heart and arterial aging.
Evidence supporting the hypothesis that age-associated changes in cardiovascular structure/function are implicated in the markedly increased risk for cardiovascular disease in older persons has been presented in the preceding 2 articles in this series.1,2 It follows that therapies to prevent or delay cardiovascular changes that accompany aging may reduce the risk for age-associated cardiovascul...
متن کاملArterial and cardiac aging: major shareholders in cardiovascular disease enterprises: Part II: the aging heart in health: links to heart disease.
A Trilogy of Heart Disease Manifestations Emerges With Advancing Age The preceding article in this series1 reviewed evidence as to why age-associated changes in the central arterial system are risky with respect to vascular disease. In a similar vane, the focus of this article is on the potential link between ageassociated changes in the heart and clinical cardiac disease outcomes. Left ventric...
متن کاملArterial aging and arterial disease: interplay between central hemodynamics, cardiac work, and organ flow—implications for CKD and cardiovascular disease
Cardiovascular disease is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD). All epidemiological studies have clearly shown that accelerated arterial and cardiac aging is characteristic of these populations. Arterial premature aging is heterogeneous. It principally involves the aorta and central capacitive arteries, an...
متن کاملArterial–Ventricular Coupling with Aging and Disease
Age is the dominant risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. Understanding the coupling between the left ventricle (LV) and arterial system, termed arterial-ventricular coupling (E(A)/E(LV)), provides important mechanistic insights into the complex cardiovascular system and its changes with aging in the absence and presence of disease. E(A)/E(LV) can be indexed by the ratio of effective arteria...
