Aortic Stiffness Determines Diastolic Blood Flow Reversal in the Descending Thoracic Aorta
Aortic stiffening often precedes cardiovascular diseases, including stroke, but the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms remain obscure. We hypothesized that such abnormalities could be attributable to altered central blood flow dynamics. In 296 patients with uncomplicated hypertension, Doppler...
