Pulmonary function correlates with arterial stiffness in asthmatic patients.
BACKGROUND At the population level, asthma has been associated with chronic systemic inflammation as well as adverse cardiovascular outcomes. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate peripheral vascular hemodynamic variables of arterial stiffness (AS) and their relationship to pulmonary function tests in asthmatic patients. METHODS Young asthmatic patients from the tertiary cente...
متن کاملArterial stiffness assessment in patients with phenylketonuria
In patients with phenylketonuria (PKU) compliant to diet greater tendency to overweight and higher inflammatory biomarkers levels than controls were reported. Although this could lead to atherogenesis, the elastic properties of large arteries in PKU patients have never been assessed. The aim of this study was to assess arterial stiffness measured by applanation tonometry in PKU patients compare...
متن کاملArterial Stiffness in Nonhypertensive Type 2 Diabetes Patients in Ghana
Background. Increased arterial stiffness is an independent cardiovascular risk factor in diabetes patients and general population. However, the contribution of diabetes to arterial stiffness is often masked by coexistent obesity and hypertension. In this study, we assessed arterial stiffness in nonhypertensive, nonobese type 2 diabetes (T2DM) patients in Ghana. Methods. In case-control design, ...
متن کاملInsulin resistance correlates with the arterial stiffness before glucose intolerance.
OBJECTIVE The elevated plasma glucose level and/or insulin resistance in diabetes or impaired glucose tolerance play important roles in the pathogenesis of arterial stiffness. The present study investigated whether insulin resistance correlated with arterial stiffness before the development of glucose intolerance. METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional analysis in 872 young to middle-age indi...
متن کاملArterial stiffness index: A new evaluation for arterial stiffness in elderly patients with essential hypertension
Background: Arterial stiffness is one of the predictors of cardiovascular event. Arterial stiffness is commonly measured by pulse wave velocity between the carotid and femoral arteries. Recently the arterial stiffness index which is measured by computerized oscillometry at the upper arm was developed. As this procedure is a convenient means of measuring pulse wave velocity, we considered it sui...
