The phenomenon of flow-mediated dilation (FMD) relevant to this debate describes the
vasodilation in a conduit vessel in response to elevations in flow-associated shear stress …

Before you embark on this debate with my redoubtable Canadian friends, you may find it
advisable to take something to minimize your cardiovascular risk. I recommend the sensible …

Endothelial dysfunction is now considered an important early event in the development of
atherosclerosis, which precedes gross morphological signs and clinical symptoms. The …

Flow-mediated dilation (FMD) is a noninvasive index of endothelial function and vascular
health in humans. Studies examining the role of nitric oxide (NO) are not conclusive. In this …

Flow-mediated dilation (FMD) is recognized as a non-invasive endothelial function
bioassay. However, FMD's relationship with endothelial cell oxidative stress in humans is yet …

Flow-mediated dilation (FMD), mainly mediated by nitric oxide (NO), aims to assess the
shear-induced endothelial function, which is widely quantified by the relative change in …

Endothelium‐dependent flow‐mediated dilatation (FMD) describes the vasodilatory
response of a vessel to elevations in blood flow‐associated shear stress. Nitric oxide (NO) …

Investigations of human conduit artery endothelial function via flow-mediated vasodilation
(FMD) have largely been restricted to the reactive hyperemia (RH) technique, wherein a …

Endothelium plays a primary role in the control of vascular function and structure by
protective properties of nitric oxide, which have stimulated the development of methods to …

INTRODUCTION: Flow-mediated dilation (FMD) quantifies endothelium-dependent
vasomotor responses to short-term increases in blood flow. Low-flow mediated …
