Background and hypothesis Risk prediction in hemodialysis patients is challenging due to
the impact of the dialysis regime on patient's volume status and the complex interplay with …

Background Arterial stiffness is a strong predictor of death and cardiovascular (CV) events in
hemodialysis patients. Only few studies tested interventions aiming to improve arterial …

The number of elderly hemodialysis patients is constantly increasing worldwide. This
population has a high burden of comorbid conditions, which impair daily activities. The aim …

Background and Objectives: Peripheral arterial stiffness (PAS), assessed by brachial-ankle
pulse wave velocity (baPWV), is an independent biomarker of cardiovascular diseases …

Background: Recent studies have shown that the baseline values of absolute aortic root
diameter (ARD) and indexed diameter are associated with all-cause mortality and …

Background. Elevated blood pressure (BP) in the acute phase of ischemic stroke is
associated with heightened risk of early disability and death. However, whether BP‐lowering …

背景血液透析是终末期肾脏病替代治疗方式之一, 但可能带来失衡综合征, 运动能力减弱,
血管通路感染等并发症. 运动疗法被广泛应用于防治相关并发症, 但关于脚踏车运动能否显著 …

Objective: Pulse wave velocity (PWV), the most accepted biomarker of arterial stiffening can
be measured by different methods and in the past decade, its 24 h monitoring has also …

Introduction Arterial stiffness in the general population is an independent prognostic factor
for cardiovascular mortality, and can be measured noninvasively by pulse wave velocity …

Objectives: In hemodialysis patients, central hemodynamics, stiffness, and wave reflections
assessed through ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) showed superior …
