Abstract:Walker et al 1 demonstrated that short-term treatment with fenofibrate improves vascular endothelial function in healthy normolipidemic middle-aged and older adults by reducing oxidative stress and induces an increase in endothelial NO synthase without lowering systolic and diastolic blood pressure (SBP and DBP) significantly, providing potential support for the non-lipid-lowering effects of fenofibrate in mediating its vascular health-promoting influence in humans.With regard to arterial blood pressure (BP), … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
