On the 400th anniversary of Harvey's Lumleian lectures, this review focuses on
“hemodynamic” forces associated with the movement of blood through arteries in humans …

Multiple epidemiological studies document that habitual physical activity reduces the risk of
atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), and most demonstrate progressively lower …

The ACCF/AHA writing committee to create the 2011 Guideline on the Management of
Patients With Extracranial Carotid and Vertebral Artery Disease (ECVD) conducted a …

Background and Purpose—Whether physical activity reduces stroke risk remains
controversial. We used a meta-analysis to examine the overall association between physical …

Aging is associated with significant changes in both cardiac and vascular structure and
function that lower the threshold for clinical signs and symptoms, making older people more …

Much attention has been directed toward lifestyle modifications as effective means of
reducing cardiovascular disease risk. In particular, physical activity has been heavily studied …

The effects of inactivity and exercise training on established and novel cardiovascular risk
factors are relatively modest and do not account for the impact of inactivity and exercise on …

Low-volume sprint interval training (SIT), or repeated sessions of brief, intense intermittent
exercise, elicits metabolic adaptations that resemble traditional high-volume endurance …

Aging affects the function and structure of arteries and increases the risk of cardiovascular
diseases (CVD). In healthy sedentary adults, aging is associated with increased stiffness …
