note

This article requires an update. A discussion on arterial stiffness as it relates to endothelial function is necessary. It is now evident that arterial stiffness should relate to (at least) two independent parameters: 1. the "passive" elacticity of the vessel wall and 2. the regulated dilation/constriction status of the endothelial/smooth muscle layer. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.139.7.218 (talk) 11:38, 21 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

A discussion about arterial stiffness must include calcification as one of the causes.--Zymatik (talk) 22:15, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
