Endothelial function in pre-pubertal children at risk of developing cardiomyopathy: a new frontier

Abstract: Although it is known that obesity, diabetes, and Kawasaki's disease play important roles in systemic inflammation and in the development of both endothelial dysfunction and cardiomyopathy, there is a lack of data regarding the endothelial function of pre-pubertal children suffering from cardiomyopathy. In this study, we performed a systematic review of the literature on pre-pubertal children at risk of developing cardiomyopathy to assess the endothelial function of pre-pubertal children at risk of developing c… Show more

“…Obese adolescents with insulin resistance exhibited worse endothelial function compared with healthy, non‐obese controls . Obesity, diabetes, and Kawasaki's disease in pre‐pubertal children impair the percentage of FMD due to endothelial dysfunction . There is evidence that risk parameters for cardiovascular disease worsen in overweight and obese children (5–15 years of age) …”

“…14,15 Isso porque o endotélio, maior órgão do corpo humano 16 que repousa entre o lúmen e o músculo liso vascular de artérias, possibilita a autorregulação de tônus arterial, controlando a distribuição e o fluxo sanguíneo 16,17,18 e influencia as pré e pós-cargas do ventrículo esquerdo. 19,20 A avaliação da função endotelial, cuja importância já foi citada, inclui biomarcadores, mediadores de coagulação, pletismografia, 21,22 ultrassom (US) 22,23 e hiperemia reativa pelo tônus arterial periférico (RH-PAT). 23,24,25,26 Em 2002, o US foi descrito como o método de avaliação mais comum e recomendado.…”
