Arterial stiffness, pulse pressure, and the kidney.
Classical studies indicate that the contribution of kidneys to hypertension is almost exclusively related to the association between mean arterial pressure (MAP) and vascular resistance. Recent reports including estimates of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) have shown that pulse pressure (PP) and pulse wave velocity, 2 major indices of arterial stiffness, now emerge as significant predictors of...
متن کاملArterial Stiffness Relations Between Dairy Food Intake and Arterial Stiffness Pulse Wave Velocity and Pulse Pressure
Modifiable risk factors, such as diet, are becomingly increasingly important in the management of cardiovascular disease, one of the greatest major causes of death and disease burden. Few studies have examined the role of diet as a possible means of reducing arterial stiffness, as measured by pulse wave velocity, an independent predictor of cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality. The aim...
متن کاملGlucocorticoids potentiate central actions of angiotensin to increase arterial pressure.
Experiments were performed to determine if glucocorticoids potentiate central hypertensive actions of ANG II. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were treated for 3 days to 3 wk with corticosterone (Cort). Experiments were performed in conscious rats that had previously been instrumented with arterial and venous catheters and an intracerebroventricular guide cannula in a lateral ventricle. Baseline arteri...
متن کاملGlucocorticoids act in the dorsal hindbrain to increase arterial pressure.
Glucocorticoid receptors (GRs) are present at a high density in the nucleus of the solitary tract (NTS), an area of the dorsal hindbrain (DHB) that is critical for blood pressure regulation. However, whether these receptors play any role in the regulation of blood pressure is unknown. We tested the hypothesis that glucocorticoids act in the DHB to increase arterial pressure using two experiment...
متن کاملDoes increased arterial stiffness increase the risk for postural hypotension?
This study tests the hypothesis that increased arterial stiffness is associated with postural hypotension in older adults. Aortic pulse wave velocity and postural blood pressure (BP) response were assessed in 49 nondiabetic community-dwelling normotensive (n=27) and hypertensive (n=22) older adults (mean age+/-SD, 71+/-6.7 years) who were not receiving vasoactive medications. During the 5-minut...
