Acute systemic inflammation impairs endothelium-dependent dilatation in humans.
BACKGROUND: We tested the hypothesis that endothelial dysfunction underlies the association between an acute inflammatory episode and the transiently increased risk of a cardiovascular event by examining the effects of an experimental inflammatory stimulus on endothelium-dependent vasodilation.
