| BackgroundArterial stiffness is an independent determinant of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular risks. The relationship between the increase in arterial stiffness parameters and the severity of stroke has been shown in previous studies. We aimed to investigate the association between clinical improvement and changes in arterial stiffness parameters in patients presenting acute ischemic stroke.MethodsA total of 107 patients were enrolled in this study. On the first and seventh day of the hospitalization, 24 h non-invasive blood pressure was monitored and arterial stiffness parameters were measured. The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) was used to determine the severity of stroke, and the Modified Rankin Scale was used to determine dependency and to evaluate functional improvements.ResultsArterial stiffness parameters of augmentation index (AIx@75) and pulse wave velocity (PWV) were … |
