    5.6 Aortic is Superior to Brachial Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring for the Detection of Early Damage at the Heart and the Carotid Artery But Not at the Retinal Microcirculation: The Non-Invasive Aortic Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring for the Detection of Target Organ Damage (SAFAR) Study

    Preliminary evidence suggests the superiority of office aortic (a) blood pressure (BP) over brachial (b) in the management of arterial hypertension. The 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) is r...

    P6.02: Total Arterial Compliance Estimated by a Novel Method and all-cause Mortality in the Elderly: The Proteger Study

    Aortic stiffness assessed by carotid-to-femoral pulse wave velocity (PWV) often fails to predict cardiovascular (CV) risk and mortality in the very elderly. This may be due to the non-linear association betwee...

    Spontaneous renal artery dissection revealed by helical CT angiography

    Spontaneous renal artery dissection is rare and may be misdiagnosed because its clinical presentation is confusing. Diagnosis is usually made by intra-arterial angiography. We report a case where a spontaneou...

    Association between 24-hour ambulatory heart rate and arterial stiffness

    Clinical and experimental studies point to a positive association between carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (PWVcf) and casual heart rate. However, an association with 24-h ambulatory heart rate has never be...
