The inter-arm diastolic blood pressure difference induced by one arm ischemia: a new approach to assess vascular endothelia function.
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate whether inter-arm diastolic blood pressure difference (DBPl-r) induced by one arm ischemia correlates with flow-mediated dilatation (FMD). METHODS: Bilateral arm BPs were simultaneously measured with two automatic devices and right brachial artery diameter (D) was measured by...
