Outline of Final Research Achievements

Increase of pulse wave velocity (PWV) detriments blood vessels and can cause cerebrovascular, cardiovascular diseases. The aim of this study is to clarify the association between PWV and blood vessel function in patients with cerebrovascular diseases. We assessed patient’s clinical features, PWV, and blood biomarkers such as high sensitivity C-reactive protein, interleukin-6, and matrix metalloproteinase-9. We found that patient’s clinical features and outcomes are associated with PWV and biomarkers. These findings may contribute to predict patient’s outcome and to develop new treatment for stroke.
