Increased pulse wave velocity and carotid intima-media thickness in patients with ulcerative colitis
(Springer, 2013)
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is characterized with chronic, progressive inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. the association of UC with cardiovascular disease is still a matter of debate. the aim of this study was to ...
Increased pulse-wave velocity and carotid intima-media thickness in patients with lower urinary tract symptoms
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2013)
Objective. Vascular risk factors frequently coexist with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in both men and women, suggesting that atherosclerosis and endothelial dysfunction may play a major role in the development of ...
Total bilirubin levels predict subclinical atherosclerosis in patients with prediabetes
(Sage Publications Inc, 2016)
Bilirubin may have important antiatherosclerotic effects. Prediabetes (PD), the intermediate stage before diabetes mellitus, is associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. We evaluated the relationship ...
Evaluation of arterial stiffness and carotid intima-media thickness in children with primary and renal hypertension
(Springer, 2022)
Hypertension is an increasing disease in children and the risk of endothelial damage and target organ damage increases in the presence of additional risk factors such as obesity. In our study, the effect of hypertension ...
The relationship between atherogenic index and carotid artery atherosclerosis in familial mediterranean fever: A pilot study
(Sage Publications Inc, 2017)
Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is a disease characterized by chronic inflammation. Atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) is a logarithmic value of the triglyceride to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio and it is a ...
Epicardial adipose tissue predicts carotid intima-media thickness independently of body mass index and waist circumference
(Taiwan Soc Cardiology, 2019)
Background: Visceral obesity is strongly associated with atherosclerosis. Even though waist circumference (WC) is the most common assessment method of total visceral adipose tissue and cardiometabolic risk, this method ...
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 ...
Increased pulse wave velocity and carotid intima-media thickness in patients with carpal tunnel syndrome
(Wiley, 2013)
Introduction: Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is associated with cardiovascular risk factors. The aim of our study was to determine whether carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) and carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cf-PWV), ...
Increased carotid and brachial intima-media thickness is related to diffuse coronary involvement rather than focal lesions
(Sage Publications, 2013)
We evaluated whether an increased carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT) and brachial artery IMT (bIMT) are related to diffuse coronary involvement rather than focal lesions. Patients (n = 88) with at least 1 significant ...
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 ...
