We compared central and peripheral arterial stiffness response patterns between persons with and without intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) of different age groups at rest and following a cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET). Fifteen young adults with and without IDD, and 15 middle-aged adults without IDD performed a CPET. Central and peripheral arterial stiffness were measured at rest and following CPET using estimates of carotid-femoral (cfPWV), carotid-radial (crPWV), and carotid-ankle (cdPWV) pulse wave velocity derived from piezoelectric mechano-transducers.

Frailty and cardiovascular disease share some of the pathophysiologic features. Our objective was to review and metaanalyse the available published evidence on the topic. We performed a comprehensive literature search for studies where pulse wave velocity (PWV) or carotid-ankle vascular index (CAVI) has been linked with frailty in older persons.

We evaluated the effects of a simulated workday of prolonged sitting on blood pressure (BP) and pulse wave velocity (PWV) and examined whether posture (seated vs. supine) affected responses. Participants (n = 25) were adults, with overweight/obesity and elevated BP, and performed seated desk work for 7.

Objective: Reducing prolonged sitting at work has been recommended by an expert panel, but whether intermittent standing improves vascular health is unclear. We aimed to test whether using a sit-stand desk could reduce blood pressure (BP) and pulse wave velocity (PWV) during a simulated workday.
Methods: Overweight/obese adults with pre-to-Stage 1 hypertension completed a randomized crossover study with two simulated workday conditions: STAND-SIT (alternating standing and sitting condition every 30 min) and SIT (continuous sitting condition).
Arterial stiffness is strongly and negatively associated with the total volume of red blood cells.

Background: Erythropoiesis is partly regulated through classic feedback pathways that govern blood volume (BV) as sensed by veno-atrial but also arterial stretch receptors. Hence, the total volume of red blood cells (RBCV) could be associated with arterial stiffness (AS), although such hypothesis has not yet been tested. Therefore, we sought to investigate the association of AS with hematological variables including RBCV.
