Why the study?
Is delayed vasodilation (FMD latency) associated with increased estimated cardiovascular risk?
Is delayed vasodilation (FMD latency) associated with increased estimated cardiovascular risk?
Both the magnitude and latency of flow-mediated dilation are important markers, as delayed vasodilation is associated with higher estimated cardiovascular risk even when peak dilation is preserved.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
FMD latency may identify higher CV risk missed by peak dilation alone; hypothesis-generating for prospective validation.
Irace et al. (2014) studied this question.
