Vaccines against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) have demonstrated strong efficacy in preventing symptomatic disease, but adverse cardiovascular side effects have been reported. This study investigated whether noninvasive...
Pulse Wave Velocity (PWV) is a widely recognized non-invasive biomarker of arterial stiffness and an independent predictor of cardiovascular risk, including atherosclerosis, hypertension, and vascular aging. Accurate, accessible estimation of PWV is,...
BACKGROUND: In humans, uric acid is a product of purine metabolism that impacts the vascular system. In addition to effects on arterial vascular tone, associations between serum uric acid concentrations-even in the physiological range-and arterial hy...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: This study aimed to investigate the effects of high and adequate dairy intake (>4, 2-3 serving/day, respectively) on circulating fatty acids (FAs) and their associations with blood pressure (BP).
BACKGROUND: High systolic blood pressure is one of the leading global risk factors for mortality, contributing significantly to cardiovascular diseases. Despite advances in treatment, a large proportion of patients with hypertension do not achieve op...

Arterial stiffness is a non-traditional risk factor of cardiovascular disease and may explain part of the excess cardiovascular risk in chronic kidney disease patients. Successful renal transplantation (RT) may restore renal function and improve seve...
BACKGROUND: Aortic stiffness, assessed as carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity, provides a measure of vascular age and risk for adverse cardiovascular disease outcomes, but it is difficult to measure. The shape of arterial pressure waveforms conveys i...
Several arterial diseases are closely related with mechanical properties of the blood vessel and interactions of flow-vessel dynamics such as mean flow velocity, wall shear stress (WSS) and vascular strain. However, there is an opportunity to improve...
