Does vitamin C improve resistance but not conduit artery endothelial function in patients with chronic renal failure?
Acute administration of vitamin C reduces oxidant stress in renal failure and improves NO-mediated resistance vessel dilatation.
The findings suggest that increased stepping IIV may indicate compromised neural circuitry involved in executive function, gait, and posture in persons with MCI increasing their risk of falling. IIV measures have potential to assess neurobiological disturbance underlying physical and cognitive dysfunction in old age, and aid fall risk assessment and routine care in community and health care settings.
