Vascular aging encompasses structural and functional changes in the vasculature,
significantly contributing to cardiovascular diseases, which are the leading cause of death …

Vascular aging represents a collection of structural and functional changes in a blood vessel
with advancing age, including increased stiffness, vascular wall remodeling, loss of …

Background The concept of early vascular aging (EVA) represents a potentially beneficial
model for future research into the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying the early …

One of the European gold standard measurement of vascular ageing, a risk factor for
cardiovascular disease, is the carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV), which requires …

Background Higher levels of pulse wave velocity (PWV) have been related with the
presence of small vessel disease that could damage the brain, in which white matter …

Aging is associated with gradual decline in numerous physiological processes, including a
reduction in metabolic functions and immunological system. The circadian rhythm plays a …

Background: SARS-CoV-2 infection affects the vascular endothelium, which mediates the
inflammatory and thrombotic cascade. Moreover, alterations in the endothelium are related …

Background and aims Obesity and hypertension play important roles in the development of
arterial stiffness. We aimed to examine the sex differences in the impact of the cumulative …

Vascular aging, marked by alterations in the structure and function of blood vessels,
including heightened arterial stiffness and impaired endothelial function, is linked to a higher …

Introduction Some cardiovascular risk markers have been associated with alterations in
sleep duration in different populations; however, there is little evidence in a healthy …
