Background Pulse wave velocity is an important measure of cardiovascular risk, and can be
measured by several different techniques. We compared age-related changes in pulse wave …

Alterations in retinal vessel diameters have been shown to be predictive of cardiovascular
risk in adults and children. The aim of our study was to examine the association of body …

Microvascular remodeling and large artery stiffness are key determinants of cardiovascular
hemodynamics and can now be studied with new non-invasive methods. Our objective was …

The diameters of the retinal microvasculature reflect intermediate target organ damage and
predict adverse health outcomes. In view of the pulsatility of the cerebral blood flow and …

Adverse changes in retinal microvasculature caliber are associated with incident
hypertension, coronary heart disease and stroke. The absence of a nocturnal dipping in …

Fractal analysis has been proven useful in diagnosis and prognosis of the patient in several
neuro-ophthalmological disorders. In our experience, entropy was able to differentiate optic …

Objective: The primary aim of this study was to compare retinal vessel caliber (RVC) with
both arterial stiffness (AS) parameters and nocturnal blood pressure dipping status (DS) in …
