Background: The most common reason for the increased mortality and morbidity in TS, which results from partial or complete deficiency of an X chromosome in a female, is acquired cardiovascular disease, which is the result of endothelial dysfunction that causes atherosclerosis. Endocan, an inflamatory marker, has been found elevated in several diseases with endothelial dysfunction (ED). There is no study of endocan levels in TS.Ob...

Background: Turner syndrome (TS) is associated with increased arterial stiffness. To date, factors associated with the ontogeny of Turner arteriopathy remain unclear.Objective and hypotheses: To assess the associations of vascular biomarkers and the somatotrophic axis with arterial stiffness indices, and left heart size, in normotensive dipper TS.Method: Sixty-one patients with uncomplicated normotentensive &#1...
