External Counterpulsation Attenuates Hypertensive Vascular Injury Through Enhancing the Function of Endothelial Progenitor Cells

BackgroundVascular injury is a landmark of hypertension and enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP) has been identified as a noninvasive treatment to restore the capacity of endothelial cells. However, the effect of EECP on blood pressure lowering in hypertension and the potential mechanism remain...
