Diastolic function is strongly and independently associated with cardiorespiratory fitness in central obesity.
Cardiorespiratory fitness [maximal O2 consumption (VO2max)] is an independent risk factor for type 2 diabetes; but in individuals at risk, factors influencing VO2max are poorly understood. We tested the hypothesis that VO2max is associated with diastolic function [subendocardial variability ratio (SEVR), %], as diastolic function influences myocardial perfusion. We studied 47 men and women with...
متن کاملLeft ventricular diastolic function is associated with symptom status in severe aortic valve stenosis.
BACKGROUND In aortic valve stenosis (AS), the occurrence of heart failure symptoms does not always correlate with severity of valve stenosis and left ventricular (LV) function. Therefore, we tested the hypothesis that symptomatic patients with AS have impaired diastolic, longitudinal systolic function, and left atrial dilatation compared with asymptomatic patients. METHODS AND RESULTS In a re...
متن کاملAortic Stiffness Is Independently Associated With Rate of Renal Function Decline in Chronic Kidney Disease
Aortic stiffness and chronic kidney disease are closely linked by shared risk factors and associated increased cardiovascular mortality. At lower levels of renal function, aortic stiffness is independently associated with glomerular filtration rate. However, the longitudinal impact of aortic stiffness on renal function has not been reported previously. A cohort of 133 patients with chronic kidn...
متن کاملMean aortic pressure is the geometric mean of systolic and diastolic aortic pressure in resting humans.
The aim of our study was twofold: 1) to establish a mathematical link between mean aortic pressure (MAP) and systolic (SAP) and diastolic aortic pressures (DAP) by testing the hypothesis that either the geometric mean or the harmonic mean of SAP and DAP were reliable MAP estimates; and 2) to critically evaluate three empirical formulas recently proposed to estimate MAP. High-fidelity pressures ...
متن کاملVascular calcification is not associated with increased ambulatory central aortic systolic pressure in prevalent dialysis patients
INTRODUCTION Central aortic systolic pressure (CASP) strongly predicts cardiovascular outcomes. We undertook to measure ambulatory CASP in 74 prevalent dialysis patients using the BPro (HealthStats, Singapore) device. We also determined whether coronary or abdominal aortic calcification was associated with changes in CASP and whether interdialytic CASP predicted ambulatory measurement. METHOD...
