Summary

This is a pilot study with the purpose of measuring vascular function, assessed by evaluating arterial stiffness (pulse wave velocity and augmentation index) and endothelial function (flow mediated dilatation), in elite/amateur symptomatic male cyclists with unilateral Endofibrosis (EF), compared to asymptomatic males cyclists and to a group of age matched healthy males (non-athletes).
