Altered vascular function in chronic kidney disease: evidence from passive leg movement
Abstract Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an independent risk factor for the development of cardiovascular disease and is characterized by reduced nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability and vascular dysfunction, typically assessed using brachial artery flow‐mediated dilation (FMD). It has been previously...
