Conductance artery stiffness impairs atrio-ventriculo-arterial coupling before manifestation of arterial hypertension or left ventricular hypertrophic remodelling
Abstract As part of normal ageing, conductance arteries lose their cushion function, left ventricle (LV) filling and also left atrial emptying are impaired. The relation between conductance artery stiffness and LV diastolic function is normally explained by arterial hypertension and LV hypertrophy a...

Abstract As part of normal ageing, conductance arteries lose their cushion function, left ventricle (LV) filling and also left atrial emptying are impaired. The relation between conductance artery stiffness and LV diastolic function is normally explained by arterial hypertension and LV hypertrophy as needed intermediaries. We examined whether age-related aortic stiffening may influence LV diastolic function in normal healthy subjects. Aortic distensibility and pulse wave velocity (PWV) were related to LV emptying and filling parameters and left atrial emptying parameters as determined by magnetic resonance imaging in 36 healthy young (< 35 years) and 16 healthy middle-aged and elderly (> 35 years) with normal arterial blood pressure and myocardial mass. In the overall cohort, total aorta PWV correlated to a decrease in LV peak-emptying volume (r = 0.43), LV peak-filling (r = 0.47), passive atrial emptying volume (r = 0.66), and an increase in active atrial emptying volume (r = 0.47) (all p < 0.001).
