DOI: 10.1097/01.hjh.0000838244.56192.ba
Abstract: Objective: We previously demonstrated that it is possible to modulate the arterial stiffness gradient with the administration of nitroglycerin (NTG). This alteration of the physiological stiffness gradient would increase the transmission of greater pulsatility to… read more here.
