Effects of metabolic syndrome on aortic pulse wave velocity
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to compare the value and evaluate the validity of non-invasive methods for the detection of vascular stiffness in never-treated individuals with metabolic syndrome (MetS). METHODS A total of 59 subjects (mean age, 60 ± 12 years; male:female = 35:24) were enrolled in the study and were categorized into the positive MetS (MetS[+]: N = 32) and negative gr...
متن کاملElevated aortic pulse wave velocity, a marker of arterial stiffness, predicts cardiovascular events in well-functioning older adults.
BACKGROUND Aging results in vascular stiffening and an increase in the velocity of the pressure wave as it travels down the aorta. Increased aortic pulse wave velocity (aPWV) has been associated with mortality in clinical but not general populations. The objective of this investigation was to determine whether aPWV is associated with total and cardiovascular (CV) mortality and CV events in a co...
متن کاملCentral aortic pressure influences pulse wave velocity.
Central Aortic Pressure Influences Pulse Wave Velocity To the Editor: The study reported by Lantelme and colleagues1 suggests that increasing heart rate is independently associated with higher aortic pulse wave velocity (PWV). We are concerned that the authors of this study have neither addressed the impact of central aortic pressure changes on PWV nor the presence of potential bias in their st...
متن کاملAortic pulse-wave velocity and its relationship to mortality in diabetes and glucose intolerance: an integrated index of vascular function?
BACKGROUND Arterial distensibility measures, generally from pulse-wave velocity (PWV), are widely used with little knowledge of relationships to patient outcome. We tested whether aortic PWV predicts cardiovascular and all-cause mortality in type 2 diabetes and glucose-tolerance-tested (GTT) multiethnic population samples. METHODS AND RESULTS Participants were randomly sampled from (1) a type...
متن کاملAortic pulse wave velocity predicts cardiovascular mortality in middle-aged and elderly Japanese men.
BACKGROUND Aortic pulse wave velocity (PWV) is widely used as a noninvasive index of arterial stiffness and was used in the present study to investigate the relationship between PWV and cardiovascular mortality in the middle-aged and elderly Japanese population using a longitudinal study design. METHODS AND RESULTS From 1988 to 2003, a total of 3,960 men (50-69 years old at baseline) who unde...
