As arterial stiffness increases in the absence of subjective symptoms, a personal indicator that reflects increased risk of cardiovascular disease is necessary. Penile erection is regulated by vascular function, and atherosclerosis affects the penile artery earlier than it affects the coronary and carotid...
Before and after 1 year of treatment, while still on active medication, flow-mediated dilatation (FMD) was measured in the brachial artery using ultrasound while relaxation to acetylcholine in small arteries was tested in vitro in a myograph. FMD correlated inversely to resting brachial artery ...
Physical independence is crucial for overall health in the elderly individuals. The life expectancy of women has been shown to be higher than that of men, which is also known as the “male–female health-survival paradox”. Sex hormones may be one of the explanations. However, the relationship...
In health, PVAT secretes anti-contractile factors that relax the underlying artery. PVAT’s contributions to vascular function include more than production of vasoactive substances. We hypothesized that PVAT benefits the artery by assisting the function
Artery sparing radical prostatectomy--myth or reality? Not all patients in whom the neurovascular bundles are preserved recover erectile function after radical prostatectomy. A significant proportion of these m... JP Mulhall,FP Secin,B Guillonneau - 《J Urol》 被引量: 137发表: 2008年 Local rec...

Similar U-shape relationships have been observed with other health outcomes, including total mortality [45], cardiovascular mortality [45], coronary artery calcification [46], and cognitive function [47]. Upon further interrogation, we found that an eGFR ≥ 105 ml/min/1.73m2 was associated ...
Functions of the LV were invasively assessed by a PV catheter (Millar, 2F, Houston, TX, USA) introduced into the LV via the right carotid artery as described in previous studies [35,36,37]. Volume signal was calibrated by cuvette calibration unit of known volumes fulfilled with heparinized ...
A considerably more detailed review of this aspect of testis function is provided in Chapter 17. The vascular supply to the testis arises from the abdominal aorta and, in species with scrotal testes, this results in a comparatively long and highly coiled spermatic artery that is particularly ...
