Haemodialysis acutely improves endothelium-independent vasomotor function without significantly influencing the endothelium-mediated abnormal response to a  2-agonist

Abstract

The HD session acutely restores EID but not ED vasomotor function comparable with essential hypertensive patients. Pulse-wave analysis methodology, combined with provocative pharmacological testing may be used to unveil subsets of patients with more severe cardiac structural abnormalities.
