Local Shear Stress and Brachial Artery Flow–Mediated Dilation
Endothelium-dependent flow-mediated dilation is a homeostatic response to short-term increases in local shear stress. Flow-mediated dilation of the brachial artery in response to postischemic reactive hyperemia is impaired in patients with cardiovascular disease risk factors and may reflect local endothelial dysfunction in the brachial artery. However, previous studies have largely neglected th...
متن کاملPrognostic significance of brachial flow-mediated vasodilation.
There is currently much research devoted to the study of vascular biology in intact humans. These efforts aim to translate findings from the basic science arena to a better understanding of the pathophysiology of atherosclerosis and its complications. Markers of vascular risk have been used as surrogate end points in treatment studies. More recently, long-term studies have emerged that speak to...
متن کاملEffects of race and hypertension on flow-mediated and nitroglycerin-mediated dilation of the brachial artery.
Black Americans have increased morbidity and mortality rates from cardiovascular disease, greater prevalence of hypertension, and altered responses to vasodilator medications compared with those of white Americans. Hypertension and black race have been linked to impaired vascular function in the microcirculation. To examine these effects and their interaction in the conduit vasculature, we exam...
متن کاملBrachial artery flow-mediated dilation is not affected by pregnancy or regular exercise participation.
Whether brachial artery FMD (flow-mediated dilation) is altered in pregnancy by 28-35 weeks compared with non-pregnant women remains controversial. The controversy may be due to limitations of previous studies that include failing to: (i) test non-pregnant controls in the mid-late luteal phase, (ii) account for effects of pregnancy on the dilatory shear stimulus, (iii) account for physical acti...
متن کاملCirculating oxidized LDL: determinants and association with brachial flow-mediated dilation.
Circulating oxidized LDL (oxLDL) levels are strongly correlated to LDL-cholesterol (LDL-c) and apolipoprotein-B100 (apoB100), making it difficult to disentangle their independent contributions to cardiovascular risk. We explored the determinants of oxLDL and the relation between oxLDL and flow-mediated dilation (FMD) of the brachial artery to investigate whether the oxLDL/LDL-c and oxLDL/apoB10...
