Association between increased arterial stiffness and clinical outcomes in patients with early sepsis: a prospective observational cohort study
Abstract Background Conduit arteries, especially the aorta, play a major role in ensuring efficient cardiac function and optimal microvascular flow due to their viscoelastic properties. Studies in animals and on isolated arteries show that acute systemic inflammation can cause aortic stiffening whic...
