Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We collected data of 588 elderly community-dwelling men aged 60-69. Those data suggested that height could act as an indicator of vascular repairing capacity and hematopoiesis. We also found that atherosclerosis could also indicate the activity of microcirculation maintenance which should play an important role in maintenance of muscle strength among elderly hypertensive subjects. Since we reported in previous studies that atherosclerosis could have a beneficial effect for individuals with short stature, specifically stroke prevention, present results partly explain this potential function of atherosclerosis. We also partly showed the physiological polymorphism of vascular remodeling that could be influenced by both "aging decline of bone marrow function" and "hypertension".
