Interarm blood pressure difference and target organ damage in the general population.

abstract：OBJECTIVES:Endothelial dysfunction is established in aged individuals; however, the mechanism(s) are not fully elucidated. We have previously identified l-arginine transport as a potential rate-limiting factor in nitric oxide (NO) production in heart-failure patients, characterized with endothelial dysfunction. We ther...
