Abstract

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is one of the most common diseases throughout the world. To investigate the relationship between brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) and arterial atherosclerosis and peripheral artery disease (PAD) and its potential diagnostic value in diagnosing arterial sclerosis, a self-designed questionnaire and special machine designed by Colin Corp., Ltd. were implemented to measure the level of baPWV and the ankle-brachial index (ABI) and their relations to coronary and peripheral artery atherosclerosis. The results showed that baPWV and ABI were equally effective at predicting stenosis of the coronary arteries and stenosis of the arteries of the lower extremities. Different levels of baPWV with corresponding ABI can express different degrees of arterial sclerosis and peripheral artery lesion to a certain extent. Measurement of both baPWV and ABI is thus highly recommended in clinical investigation. Arterial wave reflection is a major determinant of left ventricular function, coronary perfusion, and cardiovascular risk. We investigated whether arterial wave velocity can detect atherosclerosis of the coronary arteries and peripheral arteries in patients with documented coronary artery diseases.

Cardiovascular Disease Pathophysiology

Cardiovascular disease involves several different processes that contribute to the pathological mechanism, including hyperglycemia, inflammation, atherosclerosis, hypertension and more. Vasculature stability plays a critical role in the development of the disease. Discover the latest research on cardiovascular disease pathophysiology here.
