Acute systemic inflammation reduces both carotid and aortic wave reflection in healthy adults
Abstract Acute inflammation increases the risk of cardiac and cerebrovascular events, possibly related to alterations in the hemodynamic load. Wave reflection at the aorta and carotid provides insight into downstream vascular changes and hemodynamic load at the heart and brain. Acute inflammation ha...
