Plaque-prone hemodynamics impair endothelial function in pig carotid arteries.
Hemodynamic forces play an active role in vascular pathologies, particularly in relation to the localization of atherosclerotic lesions. It has been established that low shear stress combined with cyclic reversal of flow direction (oscillatory shear stress) affects the endothelial cells and may lead to an initiation of plaque development. The aim of the study was to analyze the effect of hemody...
متن کاملSFAs do not impair endothelial function and arterial stiffness123
BACKGROUND It is uncertain whether saturated fatty acids (SFAs) impair endothelial function and contribute to arterial stiffening. OBJECTIVE We tested the effects of replacing SFAs with monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs) or carbohydrates on endothelial function and arterial stiffness. DESIGN With the use of a parallel-designed randomized controlled trial in 121 insulin-resistant men and wo...
متن کاملEndothelium-derived microparticles impair endothelial function in vitro.
Endothelial cell dysfunction (ECD) is emerging as the common denominator for diverse and highly prevalent cardiovascular diseases. Recently, an increased number of procoagulant circulating endothelial microparticles (EMPs) has been identified in patients with acute myocardial ischemia, preeclampsia, and diabetes, which suggests that these particles represent a surrogate marker of ECD. Our previ...
متن کاملMicrobubbles shunting via a patent foramen ovale impair endothelial function
OBJECTIVES Exposure to intravascular microbubbles after diving and during medical procedures alters endothelial function. The aim of this study was to investigate whether a patent foramen ovale altered forearm endothelial function by facilitating microbubbles transfer. DESIGN Patients attended on two separate visits, at least seven days apart receiving agitated saline or no active interventio...
متن کاملDoes perinatal asphyxia impair cognitive function without cerebral palsy?
Some studies on neurodevelopmental outcomes after neonatal encephalopathy have suggested that cognitive deficits do not occur in the absence of cerebral palsy. It is increasingly apparent that childhood survivors of overt neonatal encephalopathy may have cognitive impairments, even in the absence of functional motor deficits. The risk of cognitive deficits is related to the severity of neonatal...
