Arterial stiffness progressively increases with aging and is an independent predictor of
cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. Evidence supports that there are sex differences in the …

Elevated large artery stiffness and pulse pressure have emerged as important risk factors for
cardiovascular disease. The genders differ in large artery biomechanical properties …

OBJECTIVES: To examine the association between cardiovascular disease (CVD) and its
risk factors and age‐associated hearing loss in a cohort of older black and white adults …

Background The relationship between aortic (carotid–femoral) pulse wave velocity and
stiffness measures based on local diameter and pressure readings is not yet fully …

Gender-specific data focused on cardiovascular disease (CVD) are becoming increasingly
available. This is of great importance, given that CVD has become the number 1 killer of …

Hypertension, a disease with known sexual dimorphism, accelerates aging-associated
arterial stiffening, partly because of the activation of matrix remodeling caused by increased …

Background and aims Arterial pressure-volume index (API) is a non-invasive tool for
assessing small-to-medium-sized arterial stiffness. This study aimed to investigate the …

Objectives Pulse wave velocity (PWV) is a measure of arterial stiffness and its increase with
ageing has been associated with damage to cerebral microvessels and cognitive …

Objective: To find out the prevalence of hypertension, pre‐hypertension and tachycardia
among the women in rural areas of West Bengal, identify co‐factors associated with the …

Context: Sympathetic activation promotes insulin resistance and arterial hypertension with
increasing adiposity. A difference in the relationship between adiposity and sympathetic …
