The relationship between serum osteoprotegerin levels and right atrial and ventricular speckle-tracking measurements in essential hypertension patients with normal left ventricular systolic function
(Clinics Cardive Publishing, 2023)
Objective: We planned to reveal the relationship between OPG (osteoprotegerin) level and right heart function in hypertensive patients with normal ejection fraction, using strain analysis, which is a sensitive method in ...
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 ...
Non-dipping pattern in untreated hypertensive patients is related to increased pulse wave velocity independent of raised nocturnal blood pressure
(Taylor & Francis Ltd., 2013)
Background. Non-dipper pattern, characterized by diminished nocturnal decline in blood pressure (BP), is associated with an increase in cardiovascular events. Carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (CF-PWV) has been accepted ...
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 ...
