Key result
Higher arterial stiffness by CAVI correlates modestly with left ventricular diastolic dysfunction in stable CAD.
Why the study?
Arterial stiffness is a risk factor in coronary heart disease that affects vascular and myocardial function, but its correlation with left ventricular diastolic dysfunction in stable coronary heart disease patients needed analysis.
Is arterial stiffness measured by CAVI associated with left ventricular diastolic dysfunction in patients with stable coronary heart disease?

Background: Arterial stiffness is one of the coronary heart disease risks that exacerbates vascular and myocardial function. Arterial stiffness causes an increase in systolic pressure and decreases diastolic in the left ventricle. Cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI) is a new tool used to detect arterial stiffness. Objectives : Analyzing the correlation between arterial stiffness using cardio-ankle vascular index and left ventricular diastolic dysfunction in patients with stable coronary heart disease Method: The study was conducted from March to May 2015. Data collected were age, gender, laboratory examination, echocardiography for diastolic function, ejection fraction, and CAVI. The data then were analyzed using SPSS (SPSS, Inc., Chicago, IL). Result: The samples were 32 respondents (78.1% of males, average age of 58.22±7.6 years). The result of the CAVI statistic test with diastolic dysfunction was r = 0.394 and p value = 0.026 (α = 0.05). Conclusion: There was a significant positive correlation between arterial stiffness using CAVI and left ventricular diastolic dysfunction.

Cahyani et al. (2020) conducted a cross-sectional in Stable Coronary Heart Disease (n=32). Arterial stiffness (measured by CAVI) was evaluated on Correlation between arterial stiffness (CAVI) and left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (r = 0.394, p=0.026). Arterial stiffness measured by CAVI was correlated with left ventricular diastolic dysfunction in patients with stable coronary heart disease.
