Asmar R, London G, ORourke M, Mallion J, Romero R, Rahn K, et al.
J Hypertens Suppl . 2002 Feb; 19(4):S15-20. PMID: 11848258
Background: Epidemiological studies have shown that increased arterial stiffness and wave reflections, major determinants of systolic and pulse pressure, are associated with morbidity and mortality. Therapeutic trials based on cardiovascular...

Asmar R, London G, ORourke M, Safar M
Hypertension . 2001 Oct; 38(4):922-6. PMID: 11641310
International guidelines recommend that antihypertensive drug therapy should normalize not only diastolic (DBP) but also systolic blood pressure (SBP). Therapeutic trials based on cardiovascular mortality have recently shown that SBP...

SMULYAN H, Asmar R, Rudnicki A, London G, Safar M
J Am Coll Cardiol . 2001 Apr; 37(5):1374-80. PMID: 11300449
Objectives: We measured the properties of the arterial tree, seeking differences between men and women as they aged. Background: There are many differences between men and women, besides menopause, which...

Asmar R
Pathol Biol (Paris) . 1999 Oct; 47(7):685-95. PMID: 10522259
Morbidity and mortality in hypertension are mainly determined by arterial lesions which may occur in different regional circulations: kidney, cerebral, coronary ..., causing respectively nephroangiosclerosis, stroke or myocardial infarction... Despite...

Ferreira A, Viana M, Mill J, Asmar R, Cunha R
J Hypertens . 1999 Jul; 17(5):631-7. PMID: 10403606
Objective: To investigate whether differences exist in the mechanical properties of large arteries between white and black subjects. Design: Eighty-two white (49 normotensive and 33 untreated hypertensive) and 38 black...

Asmar R, Topouchian J, Benetos A, Sayegh F, Mourad J, Safar M
J Hypertens Suppl . 1997 Mar; 15(2):S99-107. PMID: 9218206
Methods Of Assessing Arterial Abnormalities: Several non-invasive techniques can be used to assess haemodynamic properties of arteries: (1) casual and ambulatory blood pressure measurements can be used to evaluate pulse...

Benetos A, Laurent S, Asmar R, Lacolley P
J Hypertens Suppl . 1997 Mar; 15(2):S89-97. PMID: 9218205
EFFECTS OF HYPERTENSION ON LARGE ARTERIES: The mechanical properties of large arteries make a major contribution to cardiovascular haemodynamics through the buffering of stroke volume and by propagation of the...

Siche J, Herpin D, Asmar R, Poncelet P, Chamontin B, Comparat V, et al.
J Hypertens . 1995 Dec; 13(12 Pt 2):1654-9. PMID: 8903627
Aim: The objective of this study was to evaluate the relationship between non-invasive ambulatory blood pressure variability and cardiac baroreflex sensitivity in hypertensive patients. Subjects And Methods: Ambulatory blood pressure...

Cunha R, Benetos A, Laurent S, Safar M, Asmar R
Am J Hypertens . 1995 Apr; 8(4 Pt 1):343-52. PMID: 7619346
In hypertension, the principal components of the mechanical stress acting on the arterial wall may be evaluated not only from the level of peak systolic and end-diastolic blood pressure but...

Asmar R, Julia P, Mascarel V, Fabiani J, Benetos A, Safar M
J Hypertens . 1994 Jun; 12(6):697-702. PMID: 7963495
Objective: To assess the circadian blood pressure profile observed 3 months after endarterectomy. Design: Twenty-five patients undergoing unilateral or bilateral carotid endarterectomy were compared with a control population of 20...
