Conclusion. These data indicate that high-dose atorvastatin treatment for 6???mo does not influence arterial stiffness in healthy adults. Participation in habitual PA did not magnify the vascular effects of statin therapy. This study was registered with ClinicalTrials.gov NCT00609063. 展开 ...
Antihyperten- sive therapy could lower PWV.20,21 It can be considered that adjust- ment of PWV for AP is not necessarily required to assess early atherosclerosis in the sight of predicting cardiovascular risk. In conclusion, AoPWV could underestimate alteration in aortic stiffness due to ...

Of the 23 studies included in this review, 4 trials evaluated the effect of vitamin D therapy on surrogate measures of CV disease including left ventricular mass and function, abdominal aortic calcification (AAC), and pulse wave velocity (PWV) [29,31,33,35]. Four trials reported clinical CV...
Coronary endothelial function can be improved in hypercholesterolemic subjects by lipid lowering 46, 47, either short term, for example, by LDL apheresis [102], or in the longer term, with either diet and resin therapy [103]or HMG CoA reductase inhibitors such as lovastatin. In these latter...

To design better robotic gait devices that can enhance therapy, it is critical to identify neural mechanisms that govern locomotor adaptation to robotic assistance. In recent studies from our laboratory, we examined how healthy young subjects adapted to a robotic ankle exoskeleton during walking [14...
