Why the study?
Does experimental congestive heart failure alter the sodium and potassium content of peripheral arteries in dogs?
Does experimental congestive heart failure alter the sodium and potassium content of peripheral arteries in dogs?
Experimental congestive heart failure in dogs is associated with significantly increased sodium content in peripheral arteries, which may help explain abnormal vascular stiffness in human CHF.

Arterial sodium accumulation may contribute to vascular stiffness in CHF; hypothesis-generating for human translation.
Zelis et al. (1970) studied this question.
