Comparison of abdominal aortic hemodynamics between men and women at rest and during lower limb exercise.
J Vasc Surg. 2003; (1): 118-23
Biologic variations between men and women have been hypothesized to contribute to the differences in atherosclerosis epidemiology of the two genders. Hemodynamics are also hypothesized to play an important role in the localization of atherosclerosis in the abdominal aorta. However, the hemodynamics of men and women have not been compared at this location at rest or during lower limb exercise conditions.
