Diabetes may induce multiple organ damage; therefore, early detection of individuals at high-risk of incident diabetes is important for timely risk assessment and intervention. Arterial stiffness (AS) occurs as a result of functional and structural changes in the arterial wall. Growing body of evidence suggests that AS is a risk factor for incident diabetes. Although each study could use different indicators for AS (ex cf-PWV, baPWV, etc.), they came to similar conclusion that AS was associated with higher risk of incident diabetes. The underlying mechanisms for the relationship of AS with risk of diabetes remain to be elucidated, but there could be several potential mechanisms. Diabetes and AS are expected to share common risk factors and influence each other, but recent research showed some evidence that AS can directly increase the risk of diabetes. The link between AS and incident diabetes has important clinical implications. First, it suggests that AS might be a useful marker for identifying people at high risk for developing diabetes. Second, it suggests that reducing AS may prevent or delay the onset of diabetes. Early detection and possible slowing of the vascular stiffening process with pharmacological agents and lifestyle interventions may reduce associated risks for diabetes.

Background: Exercise training elicits indubitable positive adaptation in microcirculation in health and disease populations. An inclusive overview of the current knowledge regarding the effects of exercise on…
Introduction: The cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI) is a well-known index to evaluate arterial stiffness and predict cardiovascular risk. Methods: We investigated whether CAVI can predict severity and extent of…
Aortic stiffness increases with age and is a robust predictor of cerebrovascular events and cognitive decline including Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia. Recent clinical studies have investigated the…
Large artery stiffness (LAS) has proven to be an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease and mortality. Nevertheless, the position of current hypertension guidelines regarding the usefulness of assessing LAS…
Background: The cardioprotective benefits and prognostic significance of regular moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (PA), increased cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), or both are often underappreciated by the medical…
Sickle cell disease is an inherited hemoglobinopathy leading to the synthesis of hemoglobin S. Hemoglobin S results in the formation of abnormal sickle-shaped erythrocytes that lead to hematologic abnormalities such as…
Background: Patients with spinal cord injuries (SCIs) are at a greater risk for the development of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) than able-bodied individuals due to the high risk of endothelial dysfunction. Summary…
Alongside cancer, cardiovascular disease (CVD) exhibits the highest rates of morbidity and mortality globally, in western society as well as in Asian countries. Aging is a serious problem for the Asian population as…
Background: In part one of this two-part series, we performed a detailed analysis of the hemodynamic signature produced during resistance exercise (RE) and discussed the subacute effects on short-term modulation of…
Pulse wave velocity (PWV) and cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI) are measurements of arterial stiffness and are widely used as indices of arteriosclerosis. In Japan, brachial-ankle PWV (baPWV) is generally used to…
