ELASTIC PROPERTIES OF THE VASCULAR WALL AND THEIR RELATIONSHIP TO SERUM BIOCHEMICAL MARKERS IN HYPERTENSIVE PATIENTS WITH ABDOMINAL OBESITY
The paper gives the results of an investigation of the elastic properties of the vascular wall in 157 people aged 21 to 75 years (mean 47.17±8.6 years). Relationships have been found between the indicators of the elastic properties of the vascular wall and serum biochemical parameters; biochemical predictors for impairing the elastic properties of the vascular wall have been defined.
