Implication

Indicates myogenic aortic strain modulation in animals; leaves open human translation.

Structured PICO

Population

Rat thoracic aorta segments (n=14)

Intervention

Smooth muscle contraction and relaxation in an aerated Krebs-Ringer solution (37 degrees C)

Comparator

Baseline state immediately after radial cutting

Outcome

Opening angle and intramural strain distributionsurrogate

Aortic smooth muscle contraction increases residual strain, suggesting a myogenic response to maintain uniform intramural strain distribution against blood pressure changes.
