Increased aortic pulse wave velocity (AoPWV) has been identified as a risk factor for
cardiovascular morbidity in the general population and in patients on dialysis. Most of the …

Objectives: The aim of the study was to analyze the relationships between inflammatory and
vascular calcification parameters and arterial wall stiffness in chronic kidney disease (CKD) …

Background: In patients with end-stage renal disease pulse wave velocity (PWV) has been
widely assessed, but its behavior in mild to moderate chronic kidney disease (CKD) has …

Background: Recent studies indicate an increased mortality of anemic patients with renal
failure when near-normal hemoglobin levels are aimed for by treatment with erythropoiesis …

To compare the clinical features of aortic stiffness and its contributors between hemodialysis
(HD) patients with and those without diabetes, we performed a cross-sectional study of …

Valuable information about cardiovascular system can be derived from the shape of aortic
pulse wave being the result of reciprocal interaction between heart and vasculature …

The aims of our study were to identify the risk factors for an increased aortic pulse wave
velocity (AoPWV) and to assess the impact of the AoPWV on the cerebro-cardiovascular …

Introduction The etiology of the end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and the hydration status
may be involved in the arterial stiffening process observed in hemodialyzed patients. The …

stage renal disease (ESRD) undergoing hemodialysis, aortic pulse wave velocity (PWV) is …

Aortic p ulse w ave v elocity (a PWV) is elevated in patients with chronic kidney disease
(CKD) and predicts cardiovascular risk. However, the natural progression of arterial stiffness …
