Arterial stiffness or endothelial dysfunction as a surrogate marker of vascular risk
Open accessAbstract
The understanding of the pathophysiology of atherosclerosis has advanced greatly in the past decade. Cardiovascular risk factors increase the likelihood of an adverse event by having a detrimental effect on the blood vessel wall. Abnormal interactions among cholesterol, inflammatory mediators, platelets and the vascular wall lead to atherogenesis and cardiac events. In an effort to better understand this process, develop surrogate end points for clinical trials and, ultimately, better risk stratify individuals, a variety of measures of arterial function have been studied. These include measures of endothelial health and arterial compliance. The current paper reviews the various techniques available for the study of vascular health. While not yet routinely used for clinical care, these measurements provide important insights into the pathophysiology and treatment of atherosclerosis.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
