Aging can be seen as process characterized by accumulation of oxidative stress induced
damage. Oxidative stress derives from different endogenous and exogenous processes, all …

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the major causes of death in the western world. The
incidence of cardiovascular disease as well as the rate of cardiovascular mortality and …

Important changes occur in the cardiovascular system with advancing age, even in
apparently healthy individuals. Thickening and stiffening of the large arteries develop due to …

Progressive resistance training promotes strength gains in both the young and the aged.
Importantly, gains in strength in aged persons are, with the appropriate duration, intensity …

Objectives The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between age and invasive
cardiovascular hemodynamics during upright exercise among healthy adults. Background …

Advancements in longevity research have provided insights into the impact of cardiac aging
on the structural and functional aspects of the heart. Notable changes include the gradual …

Background Lower exercise capacity, as measured by 6-minute walk distance (6MWD), is
associated with incident heart failure (HF). Among those without HF, the associations of …

Cardiac aging is an intrinsic process that results in impaired cardiac function, along with
cellular and molecular changes. These degenerative changes are intimately associated with …

The constructs of effort and engagement are central to many theoretical frameworks
associated with the study of aging. Age differences in the effort associated with effortful …

Intrinsic cardiac aging is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease and is
associated with structural and functional changes that impede cardiac responses to stress …
