Metalloproteinases, Mechanical Factors and Vascular Remodeling
Chronic increases in arterial blood flow elicit an adaptive response of the arterial wall, leading to vessel enlargement and reduction in wall shear stress to physiological baseline value. Release of nitric oxide from endothelial cells exposed to excessive shear is a fundamental step in the remodeling process, and potentially triggers a cascade of events, including growth factor induction and m...
متن کاملReduced Risk Factors for Vascular Disorders in Parkinson Disease Patients
Background and Purpose—Sympathetic hyperactivity is a contributing cause of vascular disorders because it increases blood pressure, blood sugar, and blood lipids. Pervasive compromise of the central and peripheral autonomic nervous systems is common in idiopathic Parkinson disease (IPD) resulting in reduced sympathetic and parasympathetic function. We hypothesized that IPD was associated with r...
متن کاملWhat Are Vascular Risk Factors?
Vascular Risk Factors refer to risk factors that increase an individual’s chances of developing cardiovascular disease [1]. Vascular risk factors have also been linked to an increased risk of cognitive impairment and dementia [2]. It is therefore important that we are aware of vascular risk factors that we can modify through healthy changes to our lifestyle in order to reduce our risk of cognit...

متن کاملMidlife and Late‐Life Vascular Risk Factors and White Matter Microstructural Integrity: The Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities Neurocognitive Study
BACKGROUND Diffusion tensor imaging measures of white matter (WM) microstructural integrity appear to provide earlier indication of WM injury than WM hyperintensities; however, risk factors for poor WM microstructural integrity have not been established. Our study quantifies the association between vascular risk factors in midlife and late life with measures of late-life WM microstructural inte...
