Independent determinants of ascending aortic dilatation in hypertensive patients: Smoking, endothelial dysfunction, and increased epicardial adipose tissue
(Lippincott, 2012)
Background: Ascending aortic aneurysm is an uncommon condition with lethal consequences. Lately, epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is acknowledged as an organ with important effects on the vascular system. In this study, we ...
The independent relationship of epicardial adipose tissue with carotid intima-media thickness and endothelial functions: The association of pulse wave velocity with the active facilitated arterial conduction concept
(Lippincott, 2013)
BACKGROUND: Hypertension, identifiable by elevated blood pressure (BP), is a heterogeneous multifactorial disorder. Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT), a special fat depot that is related to visceral fat rather than total ...
Aortic valve sclerosis is a high predictive marker of systemic endothelial dysfunction in hypertensive patients
(Springer, 2013)
Background: Aortic valve sclerosis (AVS) is closely related to hypertension and is an important predictor of coronary artery disease as well as cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. However, the mechanisms causing AVS ...
