Meanings of mediate vasodilation in English

These metabolites have been shown to mediate vasodilation via increases in nitric oxide (NO) and activation of potassium channels.

This study confirms that an oxidative stress impairs the endothelium- mediated vasodilation.

No differences were found in nitroglycerin- mediated vasodilation and in vitro ET-1 production among the three groups.

Whether nitric oxide- mediated vasodilation during exercise is also impaired in patients with congestive heart failure is unknown.

There was a similar trend between flow- mediated vasodilation and risk factor score, but this did not reach statistical significance.

These results suggest that the peptidergic nerves supplying human large epicardial coronary arteries may be predominantly involved in mediating vasodilation.

There were no significant differences between HIV-infected and control subjects with regard to brachial artery flow- mediated vasodilation or carotid intima-media thickness.

Background: Nitric oxide- mediated vasodilation in response to muscarinic stimulation is impaired in the peripheral circulation of patients with congestive heart failure.

These findings support the hypothesis that NO- mediated vasodilation is probably linked with the mechanism of progressive renal failure in decompensated cirrhotics.

By contrast, the difference in flow- mediated vasodilation between those with a high or low risk factor score did not reach statistical significance.

These results demonstrate that NO- mediated vasodilation is a key feature of the normal response to stress fracture and precedes woven bone formation.

The objective was to assess the effect of homocysteine-lowering therapy with folic acid on flow- mediated vasodilation in patients with coronary artery disease.

Conclusions: This study demonstrated a close relation between coronary artery endothelium-dependent vasomotor responses to acetylcholine and flow- mediated vasodilation in the brachial artery.

These findings suggest that nitric oxide- mediated vasodilation during submaximal exercise is impaired in the forearm circulation of patients with congestive heart failure.

Whether decreased endothelium-dependent, NO- mediated vasodilation in patients with heart failure is due to decreased synthesis or increased degradation of NO is unknown.

A measure of vascular compliance was more significantly correlated with cardiovascular risk factor score than was a measure of flow- mediated vasodilation in the study population.
