Sentence examples for mediate dilatation of from inspiring English sources

Thus, the trigemino-cerebrovascular reflex is probably part of a counter-balancing system, which is able to mediate dilatation of brain vessels and sustain cerebral blood flow [8].

Although this review mainly focuses on the role of EETs metabolized from arachidonic acid, EETs can also be generated from eicosapentaenoic acid, and mediate dilatation of microvessels with comparable potency in a similar mechanism [ 31].

Vascular function will be measured using flow mediated dilatation and glyceryl trinitrate mediated dilatation of the brachial artery and vascular structure will be measured with carotid and aortic intima media thickness, using standardised protocols.

This rise in blood pressure was associated with a small decrease in flow-mediated dilatation of 2.1 % and a decrease in nitroglycerin-mediated dilatation of 5.1%%.

CGRP is also released from cortical slices during CSD and this calcium-dependent release can mediate the dilatation of cortical arterioles.

BMI: Body Mass Index, LDL: Low Density Lipoprotein, HDL: High Density Lipoprotein, IMT: Intima Media Thickness; FMD: Flow Mediated Dilatation The allele frequencies of the investigated polymorphisms of the ADIPOR2 are shown in table 2. Only rs767870 and rs1044771 polymorphisms were found to be in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, (p < 0.05, χ2 < 3.83).

Furthermore, heterozygotes of the rs767870 polymorphism had significantly lower Flow Mediated Dilatation (FMD) values, higher values of Intima-Media Thickness (IMT) and increased ADIPOR2 protein levels in peripheral monocytes, compared to homozygotes of the minor allele after adjustment for age, sex, waist to hip ratio and HOMA.

Objective: The aims of this study were to determine: (1) endothelial function in type 2 diabetic subjects with and without diabetic microvascular complications using flow mediated dilatation method (FMD); (2) influence of other variables on FMD; and (3) the correlation between FMD and carotid intimal media thickness (IMT).

Although no association between flow mediated dilatation (FMD) and plasma concentrations of EETs has been observed in subjects with coronary artery disease, bradykinin-induced changes in forearm blood flow may be more reflective of EET associated microvascular function [ 56, 105] and more predictive of cardiovascular outcome [ 10].

ANOVA = analysis of variance; BD = Behçet's disease; FMD = flow mediated dilatation; NMD = nitrate mediated dilatation.

Thus our finding of increased flow mediated dilatation at 3 months was not surprising.
