... described, the underlying pathophysiology has not been fully elucidated. In this study, we aimed to evaluate central aortic pressure, aortic stiffness and left ventricular (LV) function in patients with coronary slow flow. Method and Results: The study population consisted of 154 patients who underwent...

... the elastic lamina in the aortas of diabetic rats, suggesting a significant accumulation of collagen in diabetic vessels. Compared with normal rats, diabetic rats showed significantly reduced aortic distensibility (CD: 0.10 ± 0.04 vs. 0.17 ± 0.08 kPa –1 , p = 0.033) and an increased aortic stiffness index (Ep...
