Feasibility of high-resolution flow-mediated dilation using a 24-MHz probe to assess endothelial dysfunction: comparison of hypertensive and normotensive groups
In hrFMD, NER60 was significantly lower in HT than in NHT participants and may represent a surrogate marker for impaired vascular reactivity associated with hypertension. However, its role in the direct detection of ECD requires further validation against established physiological criteria.
