Arterial stiffness is an emerging risk factor with important
implications for cardiovascular disease risk. Herein, we concisely
summarize the physiological and pathophysiological aspects of
arterial stiffening, and highlight the importance of increased
arterial stiffness for future cardiovascular events. Factors
contributing to increased arterial stiffness such as advancing age,
obesity, race, sex differences and cardiorespiratory fitness are
examined while elucidating the potential underlying mechanisms for
each scenario. To conclude, we discuss novel interventions to
prevent and/or reverse the arterial stiffening process in order to
reduce cardiovascular risk. This book also: Overviews the cellular
and molecular mechanisms of arterial stiffness Discusses the
implications of arterial stiffness in target organ damage
