A recent study in self-reported ... -
Endothelial function in a healthy Norwegian population: Risk factors, age and gender in the HUNT3 survey
Skaug, Eli-Anne (Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU;2018:319, Doctoral thesis, 2018)Background: Endothelial dysfunction is an early sign of atherosclerosis, often assessed as impaired flow-mediated dilation (FMD) in the brachial artery. This measure of endothelial function correlates with the endotheliu ... -
