Summary
An impairment of endothelial function plays the central role in the pathogenesis of
cardiovascular diseases and their complications. Most of cardiovascular risk factors are
known to impair endothelial function and the established disease further aggravates
endothelial dysfunction.
The aim of the present study is to investigate the effects of nebivolol or metoprolol
succinate on endothelial function and large artery stiffness.
