Correlations of Different Structural and Functional Characteristics of Arterial Wall With Traditional Cardiovascular Risk Factors in Healthy People of Different Age. Part 1
Abstract:Arterial wall status is determined by several characteristics, the main of them are as follows: pulse wave velocity (PWV), carotid arteries intima-media thickness (IMT), the presence of atherosclerotic plaques, endothelium-dependent vasodilation (EDVD). When these parameters change, the risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD) grows. The nature of relationship between these indices in people without CVD clinical signs is understudied, especially in those of older age. Aim. To estimate correlations between differe… Show more
