Sentences with phrase «arterial stiffening»

Stiff arteries heighten your risk of cardiac problems, heart attacks and strokes, however, the muscle tissue vs. arterial tissue flexibility link was only identified in middle aged and older adults, and the authors noted that some degree of arterial stiffening is to be expected as we age.

According to the authors, stretching exercises may set into motion physiological reactions that slow down age - related arterial stiffening.

Further evidence exists to explain how the coenzyme improves blood flow to the heart muscle and enhances vascular elasticity to prevent arterial stiffening, commonly referred to as «hardening of the arteries».

As the investigators note, the rapid age - related arterial stiffening and cardiac arrhythmias that appear to be at cause for the majority of deaths in BubR1H / H mice were not attenuated by ablating p16Ink4a - expressing senescent cells — but these tissues had little burden of such cells, so this finding reinforces the conclusion that the multiple aging phenotypes arrested in these mice when senescent cells were ablated is attributable specifically to the removal of their baleful influence on local tissues.

Vascular Mechanics Mechanisms and mechanics of pulmonary arterial stiffening Naomi Chesler, University of Wisconsin Elastic fibers and the mechanics of developing arteries Jessica Wagenseil, Washington University

Their argument, in short, is that you don't need anything more than the process of arterial stiffening that occurs with aging to explain the observed effects of hypertension:

APOE genotype modifies the association between central arterial stiffening and cognition in older adults.

Gordon is excited not only about the weight gain but also by a measure of arterial stiffening assessed in 18 of the children.

Arterial stiffening, in which arteries become less elastic and more rigid, can result in increased blood and pulse pressure.

Not exact matches

Before this study, stair climbing had not been evaluated for its effects on blood pressure and arterial stiffness, which is a thickening and stiffening of the arterial wall.

What is clear is that redox - insulin axis is better in bowhead whales and that transcriptome study showed they have better vascular endothelial function and thus, lower arterial collagen ECM stiffening (by reduced crosslinks and AGEs glycation / glycoxidation of their vasculature:

Thus, these animals exhibit premature cardiac arrhythmias and stiffening of the arterial wall, and cardiac failure appears to be the main cause of death; yet these tissues are not burdened with an abnormally - high burden of p16Ink4a - senescent cells, and accordingly, ablation p16Ink4a - positive senescent cells in these animals had little tissue - specific or survivorship phenotypic impact.

This results in a stiffening of our arteries (you can see the arterial response curve in my 4 - min.

Now we have studies that measure the impact of low carb diets on arteries directly, and a review of all the best studies to date found that low - carb diets impair arterial function, as evidenced by a decrease in flow - mediated dilation, meaning low - carb diets effectively stiffen people's arteries.
