Brachial flow-mediated dilation predicts incident cardiovascular events in older adults: the Cardiovascular Health Study.
BACKGROUND The relationship between impaired brachial flow-mediated dilation (FMD) and subsequent clinical cardiovascular events is not well established, especially in older adults whose FMD is often diminished. We assessed the hypothesis that FMD predicts incident cardiovascular events in a population-based cohort of older adults. METHODS AND RESULTS FMD was measured at the 1997 to 1998 Card...

متن کاملBrachial flow-mediated dilation and incident atrial fibrillation: the multi-ethnic study of atherosclerosis.
OBJECTIVE It is unknown whether endothelial dysfunction precedes atrial fibrillation (AF) development. The objective of this study was to examine the association of brachial flow-mediated dilation (FMD) with incident AF. APPROACH AND RESULTS A total of 2936 participants (mean age, 61±9.9 years; 50% women; 66% nonwhites) from the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis with available ultrasound ...
متن کاملPredictive value of brachial flow-mediated dilation for incident cardiovascular events in a population-based study: the multi-ethnic study of atherosclerosis.
BACKGROUND Although brachial artery flow-mediated dilation (FMD) predicts recurrent cardiovascular events, its predictive value for incident cardiovascular disease (CVD) events in adults free of CVD is not well established. We assessed the predictive value of FMD for incident CVD events in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA). METHODS AND RESULTS Brachial artery FMD was measured i...
متن کاملSex-specific effects of habitual aerobic exercise on brachial artery flow-mediated dilation in middle-aged and older adults.
Brachial artery FMD (flow-mediated dilation) is impaired with aging and is associated with an increased risk of CVD (cardiovascular disease). In the present study, we determined whether regular aerobic exercise improves brachial artery FMD in MA/O (middle-aged/older) men and post-menopausal women. In sedentary MA/O adults (age, 55-79 years) without CVD, 8 weeks of brisk walking (6 days/week for...
