Left ventricle ejection, which taking blood into the aorta, generates a pressure wave that is propagated to other arteries throughout the body. Propagation occurs along the arterial wall Systole .

Collagen greatly modifies arterial rigidity and the transit of wave reflections. Neurohumoral factors(RAS systems), may modulate collagen accumulation. Chemical modifications of collagen, such as breakdown, crosslinking, or glycation, result in marked changes in stiffness. 3. The function of endothelium Changes in VSM tone are modulated by nitric oxide (NO) and vasoconstrictive (norepinephrine, angiotensin, endothelin) pounds, which mainly depend on the function of endothelium. Amplitude of Earlier Wave Reflections mainly based on the geometry, number, structure, and function of smaller muscular arteries and arterioles which serve as major reflection sites ? or remodeling of small arteries and arterioles ? and branching angles of arterioles ? of the microenvironment (in particular sodium and other cations), ? endotheliummediated vasodilation, ? in matrix position of small arteries and arterioles, ? mediated alterations of vasomotor tone, arising from smooth muscle or endothelial cells. 動(dòng)脈硬度與心血管危險(xiǎn) 動(dòng)脈硬度 ↑ 反射波強(qiáng)度 ↑ amp。Pulse Wave Analysis A simple method to assess arterial stiffness and distensibility.

Novel therapeutic approaches reduce the increase in PP and arterial stiffness with age should be developed further. Therapeutic trials using such medications will be necessary to demonstrate an improvement in morbidity and mortality on the basis of influencing vascular stiffness and increased PP.
