Official title
The Effect of Vascular Distensibility on Endothelial-Dependent Vasoreactivity in Patients With Systolic Hypertension Before and After Receiving Oral Alagebrium for 8 Weeks.
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Determine whether increasing arterial distensibility by decreasing advanced glycation end-product (AGE) cross-link components of vascular stiffness improves (a) endothelial-mediated vasoreactivity at rest, as assessed by flow-mediated vasodilation (FMD), and (b) endothelial-mediated vasoreactivity after exercise, as assessed by pulse perfusion-mediated vasodilation (PPMV).
