Use of Vascular Doppler Ultrasound to Detect Acute Estradiol Vascular Effect in Postmenopausal Women

Abstract: E. Use of vascular doppler ultrasound to detect acute estradiol vascular effect in postmenopausal women. Clinics.2007;62(6):673-8. OBJECTIVES:To report on a simple practical test for assessing acute estradiol vascular effects on healthy and unhealthy postmenopausal women. INTRODUCTION: Estradiol acts in the endothelium to promote vasodilatation through genomic and non-genomic mechanisms, but its vascular action may be impaired in diabetes mellitus, hypertension, smoking and obesity. METHODS: Nineteen postmenop… Show more

“…These methods in general evaluate how the circulation responds to acute vasoactive stimuli mediated by endothelial mechanisms. 3,4 A different approach for characterizing endothelial dysfunction consists in studying the population has analyzing parameters that are in part dependant on endothelial function. One of these associations is given by the relationship between mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) and blood viscosity or the related hematocrit (Hct).…”
